A study of the textual history of "The Waiting Supper,"
from its serial publications through the Wessex edition of 1914,
and including the truncated version of it titled "The
Intruder" that Hardy published in 1890. Earlier versions of
this study have been published by Martin Ray in the
Thomas Hardy Journal (10:2, May 1994, pp. 58-65) and in Ray's Thomas
Hardy: A Textual Study of the Short Stories (London:
Ashgate, 2000).
COMMENT:
A scrupulously thorough examination of the textual history of the
story.
