Overview

Two distinct versions—the original manuscript and the published text—of The Shepherd’s Calendar are presented side by side in this handbook to the poetic evocations of English rural life presented in the piece. The truths behind the writing and editing process are illustrated by charting the development of Clare’s poem, as similarities and differences between the two versions become readily apparent.
