Editedby Lesley Peterson and Sylvia Hunt, with Catherine James and students from Laurentian University, Sudbury, Canada, and others. Illustrated by Juliet McMaster. In her introduction, Peterson identifies the authorial controversies and historical facts related to the play, promising to add to the discussion without claiming to have found the absolute answer. A "reader's edition" of the play follows, which is a straight printing, then a "diplomatic edition," a transcription in which the different hands apparent in the manuscript are noted, deletions, replacements and insertions are indicated, and details like changes of color of ink are included. We have helpful endnotes, and Appendix A "Richardson's Sir Charles Grandison, Grandison Abridgements, and "Sir Charles Grandison,"" and Appendix B, "Considerations for Staging "Sir Charles Grandison." Typical of Juvenilia Press publications, there are new ideas and detailed research, packaged in an enjoyable format. Signed by Juliet McMaster and Lesley Peterson. Juvenilia Press. 2022. Paper.
