In Early Journeys, Forgotten Logs, R. W. Watkins, the longtime ghazal poet and literary journal editor (Contemporary Ghazals, Eastern Structures), reaches back 250 years and uncovers the early history of the ghazal form in English. Previously misrepresented and therefore largely unknown, this history begins in the 1770s with the translations of British polymath Sir William Jones. Early Journeys, Forgotten Logs collects the groundbreaking work of Jones, nineteenth and early twentieth century translators such as E. J. W. Gibb and Edward G. Browne, and early composers of original ghazals, James Clarence Mangan and James Elroy Flecker. An indispensable resource for students of Asian verse forms in English, this anthology sheds light on the forgotten knowledge and skill of early British and Irish practitioners, effectively setting the record straight.
