"A Bibliography of the Writings in Prose and Verse of George Henry Borrow" by Thomas J. Wise is a scholarly bibliography written in the early 20th century. The work serves as a comprehensive catalog, providing detailed accounts and collations of Borrow's original editions, including his prose and poetry as well as contributions to periodicals. It explores Borrow's literary career, particularly his lesser-known poetic works, highlighting the significance of his translations and original compositions. The opening of the bibliography establishes the purpose of the work by detailing Borrow's literary achievements and the publication history of his writings. Wise discusses Borrow's translations of Northern Ballads and poetry, explaining how they reflect Borrow’s adventures and interests. He also mentions the challenges Borrow faced in gaining recognition for his poetic contributions, which he regarded with personal affection despite their critical reception. Wise aims to rectify the perception of Borrow's literary legacy, suggesting that his work deserves greater appreciation beyond its initial publication struggles.
