"I do not love notes, though you see I had resolved to put two or three. They are signs of weakness and obscurity. If a thing cannot be understood without them, it had better be not understood at all."
— Letter to Horace Walpole, 11 July 1757

Materials

The Materials section is designed to be a general area for secondary resources of use to readers of Gray's primary texts. At the moment, it is, essentially, a framework for a structured repository of basic secondary materials for those reading, teaching, researching, and studying Gray's works. It aims to provide an overview and background information on various aspects of Gray's life and work, and to help readers by providing an introduction to Gray studies on- and off-line. It will develop and expand as a workspace area incorporating the contributions, suggestions, and proposals received from its users. The editor welcomes contributions to this section and suggestions for further additions.

The Materials section has been broken down into the following categories:

  • Criticism: research and teaching materials
  • Biography: biographical sketch with illustrations
  • Chronology: chronological table of Gray's life and works
  • Glossary: names and terms relevant to Gray's life and works
  • Bibliography: selection of published primary and secondary materials
  • Gallery: portraits, photos, illustrations, maps
  • Related Links: links to related online resources
