[Headline]A new scholarly edition of a bold yet overlooked Victorian text that blends the genres of memoir, travelogue, ethnography and the realist novel This critical edition of George Borrow's Lavengro: The Scholar, The Gypsy, The Priest (1851) brings a renewed focus to a formally inventive and original text for scholars of the nineteenth-century autobiographical novel and travelogue. This scholarly work reflects and develops research that anchors Borrow's energetically eccentric vision in a range of notable contexts. Radford's introduction gives readers unfamiliar with the formidably prolific Borrow an opportunity to discover more about this author's career at home and abroad, his stylistic innovations and how Lavengro evokes a 'wild England' that became crucial for admirers in the next century such as D. H. Lawrence, Ford Madox Ford and Virginia Woolf. [Bio]Andrew Radford is Senior Lecturer in Critical Studies at the University of Glasgow. His publications include British Experimental Women's Fiction, 1945-1975 (co-edited with Hannah Van Hove, 2021) and The Occult Imagination in Britain 1875-1947 (co-edited with Christine Ferguson, 2018).
