abstract:
Walter Savage Landor (1775–1864) annotates one of Aubrey Thomas de Vere's (1814–1902) sonnets as "Worthy of Milton." By delving into a complex web of intertextuality, this article analyzes de Vere's sonnet in the light of his literary criticism and from the perspective of Landor's manuscript neglected note, interpreted via the useful link of William Wordsworth.
