Publication of volumes 34-36 of the Collected Letters of Thomas and Jane Welsh Carlyle. (36 months)

Begun in 1970, the Duke-Edinburgh edition of the Collected Letters of Thomas and Jane Welsh Carlyle is regarded by biographers, historians, critics, students, and general readers as one of the finest and most comprehensive literary archives of the nineteenth century. Thirty-three volumes have been published in book form by Duke University Press, and the edition continues to make a decisive impact on Victorian and nineteenth-century studies. An internet edition will be made available in 2006.
