- Double-weighted statement
- At c. 160,000 words, Fossil Poetry is twice as long as the standard-length monograph in English Studies. It surveys a wide range of poets and poetry from two separate periods of literary history (early medieval English and Romanticism/the nineteenth century), as well as antiquarian and philological texts, and is the first study of its kind to put these materials into dialogue. Unpublished and unedited archival materials (notebooks, journals, draft manuscripts) had to be consulted in several libraries over a period of years (The British Library, The Pierpont Morgan Library NY, The Houghton Library Harvard, National Library of Congress Washington).
