Oxford Medieval Texts: The Chronography of Robert of Torigni, Vol. 1: The Chronicle, AD 1100–1186
Thomas N. Bisson (ed.)
In the print edition some parts of the text are in smaller type to indicate lengthy borrowings, as explained on p. cviii of Volume 1. This smaller type cannot currently be replicated online, therefore sans serif font has been used online where smaller type is used in the print. Alternatively, readers may refer to the print pdfs which are a direct copy of the print edition and display the different font sizes.

Catullus: A Commentary
C. J. Fordyce (ed.)
In the preface of his edition C.J. Fordyce remarks that ‘a few poems that do not lend themselves to comment in English have been omitted’ – these are the poems that refer to homosexuality. So the absence of a commentary on these poems does not imply that they are inauthentic or poetically insignificant.

The Complete Poetical Works of Samuel Taylor Coleridge: Including Poems and Versions of Poems now Published for the First Time, Vol. 1: Poems
Ernest Hartley Coleridge (ed.)
This edition, prepared by the poet's grandson, was the standard scholarly edition from its publication in 1912 until 2001, when J. C. C. Mays's six-volume edition, edited on different principles, was published as part of the Bollingen/Princeton edition of The Collected Works of Samuel Taylor Coleridge. Thus most twentieth-century scholarship on Coleridge cites the poetry from E. H. Coleridge's edition. As the editor's introduction explains, the poems are arranged in chronological order of composition, so far as he could determine it, and the copy-texts of the published poems and plays follow the texts of the last edition for which the poet himself revised texts, the three-volume Poetical Works of 1834, edited by Henry Nelson Coleridge. The apparatus criticus includes variant readings from earlier editions and, in some cases, manuscripts.

The Poetical Works of William Wordsworth, Vol. 1: Poems Written in Youth; Poems Referring to the Period of Childhood (Second Edition)
Ernest De Selincourt and Helen Darbishire (eds)
This edition, edited by Ernest de Selincourt and Helen Darbishire, was published between 1940 and 1949 (vols. 2 and 3 being reissued with corrections in 1952 and 1954, respectively), and was the standard scholarly edition of Wordsworth's poems, exclusive of The Prelude, until the completion of the Cornell Wordsworth (1975–2007), published under the general editorship of Stephan Maxfield Parrish. The Oxford and the Cornell editions are edited on fundamentally different principles. The Oxford edition takes as its copy text Wordsworth's six-volume Poetical Works of 1849–50, the last edition supervised by the poet himself. The apparatus criticus aims to record the development of the text "from the earliest existing copy, through its successive stages in manuscript and print, till it received its received its final version" (Preface to vol. I, p. v). The ordering of the poems follows that of the 1849–50 edition. In contrast, the Cornell edition explicitly privileges the earliest completed versions of Wordsworth's long poems, whether in published or unpublished form, and the earliest published forms of the lyric poems. Reflecting different conceptions of the editor's responsibility to the text, the editorial principles of the Oxford and Cornell editions both have their defenders and detractors.

The Oxford and the Cornell editions are edited on fundamentally different principles. The Oxford edition takes as its copy text Wordsworth's six-volume Poetical Works of 1849–50, the last edition supervised by the poet himself. The apparatus criticus aims to record the development of the text "from the earliest existing copy, through its successive stages in manuscript and print, till it received its received its final version" (Preface to vol. I, p. v). The ordering of the poems follows that of the 1849–50 edition. In contrast, the Cornell edition explicitly privileges the earliest completed versions of Wordsworth's long poems, whether in published or unpublished form, and the earliest published forms of the lyric poems. Reflecting different conceptions of the editor's responsibility to the text, the editorial principles of the Oxford and Cornell editions both have their defenders and detractors.

William Wordsworth: The Prelude: or Growth of a Poet's Mind (Second Revised Edition)
Ernest De Selincourt and Helen Darbishire (eds)
Originally published in 1926, and digitized here in its second edition of 1959 (revised by Helen Darbishire), Ernest de Selincourt's edition of The Prelude or Growth of a Poet's Mind was the first to present the 1805 version of the poem in thirteen books, which the poet himself had left in manuscript. Now commonly considered Wordsworth's poetic masterpiece, this version of the poem gained favour among scholars, especially in the last three decades of the twentieth century, over the revised version in fourteen books, which was published shortly after the poet's death in 1850. The title of The Prelude, by which the poem is now universally known in all its versions (including the two-book one of 1799, not present here), was given to the poem by Wordsworth's executors. De Selincourt offers critical texts (with an apparatus of manuscript variants) of both the 1805 and 1805 versions, along with an editorial commentary that has been the basis of the annotations in all subsequent critical editions. Until the publication of the Cornell Editions of The Thirteen-Book Prelude (ed. Mark L. Reed, 1991) and The Fourteen-Book Prelude (ed. W. J. B. Owen, 1985), de Selincourt's was the standard scholarly edition of the 1805 and 1850 versions.

Oxford World's Classics: Tibullus: Elegies
A. M. Juster and Robert Maltby (eds)
For pp. vii-xxiii of the Introduction, and for the Note on the Text (p. xxvii), Professor Maltby has drawn on the Introduction of his Tibullus: Elegies. Text, Introduction and Commentary (Francis Cairns, Cambridge, 2002), presenting the material in a much abridged form. The Explanatory Notes, likewise, are extracted from his Commentary in that volume, to which interested readers should turn for fuller information and for references to secondary sources.
Pp. xxiii-xxv are an abridged version of R. Maltby 'The Unity of Corpus Tibullianum Book 3: some stylistic and metrical considerations', Papers of the Langford Latin Seminar 14, edd. F. Cairns and M. Griffin (Francis Cairns: Cambridge, 2010) 319-340.
The Latin text, 'A Chronology of Tibullus' and 'Textual Notes', are based on the Latin text, 'Chronological Guide' and 'Textual Note' respectively of A. G. Lee Tibullus: Elegies, third edition, revised in collaboration with Robert Maltby (Francis Cairns: Leeds, 1990). The Latin Text has been altered at the following places: 1.2.90; 1.3.4, 13; 1.4.44; 1.5.42, 60; 1.10.11, 70; 2.2.21; 2.3.53, 65; 2.5.68, 81.
