Excerpt from The Prose Works, Vol. 1 of 4: Of Percy Bysshe Shelley
The plan on which the present edition of Shelley's Prose Works is arranged is substantially the same as that adopted in the Library Edition of his Poetry. The Works issued by Shelley himself are reproduced chronologically with all their title-pages &c., in the same exact manner, no change, however minute, being made without a record of it; and the posthumous writings follow in a separate arrangement. Of these I have, as in dealing with the Poetry, separated original writings from Translations; and while the independent division of "Juvenilia" has been dropped, it has been necessary, in the nature of things, to introduce a new division of writings not intended for publication the - Letters.
The reason for abandoning the division "Juvenilia" for the Prose Works is that the distinction between Shelley's last immature prose publication and his firstmature one is not marked in the same broad and unmistakable way as the distinction between the last published Poem of his boyhood and the first of his maturity.
