See More... (Wise, Thomas J.) Barker, Nicolas and John Collins A SEQUEL TO AN ENQUIRY INTO THE NATURE OF CERTAIN 19TH CENTURY PAMPHLETS.
New Castle Oak Knoll Press and London: The Scolar Press (1992) 8vo. cloth, dust jacket. 394 pages.
Reprint of the first edition. The forgeries of Thomas James Wise, disclosed in 1934 in John Carter and Graham Pollard's AN ENQUIRY INTO THE NATURE OF CERTAIN NINETEENTH CENTURY PAMPHLETS is perhaps the most notorious literary scandal of this century. Wise, a bibliographer and book collector with the highest international reputation, was revealed to be the perpetrator of a stream of forgeries of minor works by major nineteenth century authors. The sensational exposure of Wise led to further discoveries, most notably that he had acted not alone but in collusion with Harry Buxton Forman, the distinguished editor of Keats and Shelley. The extent of the crime was clearly wider and more complicated than had been supposed when the ENQUIRYwas first published. Carter and Pollard were steadily compilling matter for a new edition of the book right up to their deaths in the mid 1970s. Their material passed to Nicolas Barker, who with John Collins undertook to complete the work. They in turn have discovered a mass of new facts.
