COLLECTED WORKS
It has been one hundred years since Robert Bridges published a volume of Hopkins’s poetry, and sixty years since editions of Hopkins letters, sermons, and some personal journals were in print. The Collected Works of Gerard Manley Hopkins is underway to make all of Hopkins’s writings, drawings, and musical compositions available in a scholarly edition. The eight-volume project was launched in 2006; when it is completed in 2020, it will consist of:
Volumes 1 and 2, Correspondenceedited by R. K. R. Thornton and Catherine Phillips 2014
Volume 3, Diaries, Journals, and Notebooksedited by Lesley Higgins 2015
Volume 4, Oxford Essays and Notebooksedited by Lesley Higgins 2006
Volume 5, Sermons and Spiritual Writingsedited by Jude V. Nixon and Noel Barber, S.J., 2018
Volume 6, Sketches, Notes, and Studies 2019edited by R. K. R. Thornton
Volume 7, The Dublin Notebookedited by Lesley Higgins and Michael F. Suarez, S.J., 2014
Volume 8, The Poemsedited by Catherine Phillips 2020
The co-general editors for this undertaking are Lesley Higgins (York University, Toronto) and Michael F. Suarez, S.J. (Rare Book School, University of Virginia). As part of Oxford University Press’s initiative to make the leap from bound books to e-books, all eight volumes will eventually be part of Oxford Scholarly Editions On-Line (OSEO; for more information, go to www.oxfordscholarlyeditions.com/page/2/about).

Hopkins Conference 2018 11
Inspired by St. Ignatius of Loyola, Regis University educates students who will seek truth, live
purposeful lives, strive for achievement beyond themselves, and commit themselves to serving
others and building a more just world. We encourage our students to make choices guided
by competence, conscience and compassion, and to continually examine and attempt to answer the
question, “How ought we to live?”
As one of more than 190 Jesuit institutions of higher education worldwide, Regis tailors
learning to meet the needs of our 11,000 students. From the traditional undergraduate
living on campus to a business executive studying online, to a health care student serving in a
clinical placement in rural Colorado, we strive to meet our students where they are.
Our sincere gratitude and appreciation to the following individuals for their efforts and contribution to the conference.
