Barchester Towers
The Chronicles of Barsetshire
Third Edition
Anthony Trollope
Edited by John Bowen
Oxford World's Classics
- Barchester Towers is the second novel in Trollope's Chronicles of Barsetshire, a richly comic story of clerical in-fighting centring on the formidable Mrs Proudie and the oily Mr Slope, and the disruption to Barchester society by the arrival of the lively Stanhope familly.
- John Bowen's introduction examines the literary skill with which Trollope combines comedy and acute social and pyschological observation.
- Helpful notes provide contextual background and draw on the latest scholarship.
- Includes a Biographical Preface and Chronology of Trollope's life, an up-to-date Bibliography, full textual note, and Trollope's Map of Barsetshire.
- The appendices include Trollope's general introduction to the Chronicles of Barsetshire series and Nicholas Shrimpton's invaluable survey of the Barsetshire novels and the Church.
New to this Edition:
- New editorial material by John Bowen, including introduction, note on the text, selet bibliography, and explanatory notes.
- New chronology of Trollope.
- Biographical Preface.
- Two appendices: Trollope's introduction to the Barsetshire Chronicles set and an invaluable appendix by Nicholas Shrimpton on the Barsetshire novels and the Church.
