William Beckfordâ€™s Vathek is a touchstone of eighteenth-century Orientalism and of the Gothic novel. Beckfordâ€™s later work, The Episodes of Vathek, shares Vathekâ€™s irreverent and decadent style, and an edition that unites the two has long been overdue. The Broadview edition includes a newly discovered early version of the first episode, never before in print, that centres on male-male love, as well as the previously published version that was re-written by Beckford as a heterosexual narrative. Based on the 1823 editionâ€”the last one edited by the author himselfâ€”the Broadview Edition also introduces The Episodes in the order Beckford planned, and incorporates his final corrections.
