Robert Bloomfield's The Farmer's Boy was the most successful poem of the Romantic period, selling 100,000 copies between 1800 and 1830. However, what was marketed was not the poem which the working-class Bloomfield had written, but a highly polished, politely spelled and punctuated re-write, prepared by the local squire, who deliberately covered up the fact that Bloomfield had written originally for a Suffolk voice, with Suffolk vowel-sounds and Suffolk idioms.This edition prints Bloomfield's first manuscript, and then has a parallel text of the polished first edition, opposite Bloomfield's second manuscript, made for his own use and for that of his family, in which he changes the poem back to the form in which he wrote, heard, and read it.Thus Bloomfield's intentions appear for the first time, edited in detail from the original manuscripts at Harvard.Also included are the two eighteenth-century poems The Thresher's Labour by Stephen Duck, and The Woman's Labour by Mary Collier.
