Notes


The first third of this essay is written by the publisher (hence "uncredited"). The second two thirds is written by Langdon Jones.
"TITUS ALONE as originally published in 1959 was printed from a typescript prepared from the notebooks in which Mervyn Peake always wrote. Recent examination of the manuscripts showed that the 1959 version was not complete and in this revised edition various omissions have been restored. These principally affect Chapters 24 (an entirely new episode), 77, 89, and from Chapters 99 to the end where the original published text has been considerably built up."
