Publication of the unedited manuscript in 1994 sparked controversy over which of the two was definitive. Since then, scholars have discovered half a dozen parent texts for later twentieth-century printings, including William Dean Howells's version from 1920 and the 1933 \u003ci\u003eGolden Book version\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e While traditional critical editions gather evidence and make an argument for adopting one text as preferable to others, \u003ci\u003e\"The Yellow Wall-Paper\" by Charlotte Perkins Gilman: A Dual-Text Critical Edition\u003c\/i\u003e, edited by Shawn St. Jean, offers both manuscript and magazine versions, critically edited and printed in parallel for the first time. New significance appears in such facets as the magazine's accompanying illustrations, its lineation and paragraphing, Gilman's choice of pronouns, and her original handwritten ending. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e This critical edition of \"The Yellow Wall-Paper\" includes a full and nontraditional apparatus, making it easy for students and scholars to study the more than four hundred variants between the two texts. Four new essays, written especially for this volume, explore the implications of this multitext model.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Charlotte Perkins Gilman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0821416537\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780821416532\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Ohio University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/01\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 144\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.92lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.80h x 6.80w x 0.57d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2006 pg. 306","brand":"Charlotte Perkins Gilman","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43980620366079,"sku":"9780821416532","price":42.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1bc5382e-8ac2-4c69-9526-3d379fe2366e.jpg?v=1683250952","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-yellow-wall-paper-by-charlotte-charlotte-perkins-gilman-9780821416532","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
