It can well be said that this second edition of The Ancient Track is the definitive collection of Lovecraft\'s entire poetic output.
And the commentary and bibliography have been thoroughly revised and updated.
The original versions of poems by Ovid, Horace, and other classical poets that Lovecraft translated are provided.
Poems that Lovecraft revised for various authors are included, along with (where extant) the original poems that served as the basis for the revisions.
Since that time, a dozen or more poems or poetic fragments have been discovered by scholars and researchers, and this new edition prints these items along with several other Works of interest.
For the first time, all of Lovecraft\'s 500 or more poems-including hundreds of Christmas greetings, untitled poems, fragments, and poems embedded in his published and unpublished letters-were gathered in accurate texts, with critical commentary and full bibliography.
Lovecraft was a landmark.
