Consists of letters and manuscripts relating to Reading the River: Selected Poems by Robert Adamson. Robert Adamson has been nourished for much of his life by Australia’s Hawkesbury River. Reading the River praises nature – red in tooth and claw – and celebrates existence as a mythological quest. The early poems trace Adamson’s own journey through a difficult childhood, prison and exile in the city, the source of a hard-won scepticism undercutting the highly personal Romanticism and daring lyricism of his later work.

Consists of letters and manuscripts relating to the The Virgin & the Nightingale: Medieval Latin Poems by Fleur Adcock.
These poems are about birds - particularly the nightingale - and young women. Most are by monks or clerics, and most are rather rude.

Several are by Peter of Blois, a scholar and diplomat who turned to religion in his later years and disclaimed the brilliant erotic verses of his youth. The middle section of the book presents a selection of poems by this highly accomplished and entertaining writer - who was political secretary to Henry II and later to his widow Eleanor of Aquitaine.

Many of the poems were rhymed, unlike classical Latin poetry, and wherever possible Fleur Adcock has attempted to reproduce the form and rhyme-scheme of the original. In these ratty and lively translations Fleur Adcock combines classical scholarship with her own poetic flair and technical skill. The Latin poems are printed alongside her verse translations.

Consists of letters and manuscripts relating to the Hotspur by Fleur Adcock.
