Carl Werner, An Imaginative Story; with Other Tales of ImaginationShort Stories | George Adlard | 1838 Carl Werner was published in December 1838 by George Adlard of New
York.[1] In the author’s advertisement, Simms classified
the collected stories as “moral imaginative” tales, a form of allegory
illuminating the “strifes between the rival moral principles of good and evil.”
Such stories, according to John C. Guilds,
may often exploit supernatural elements, although it is not necessary. Simms attributed the origin of the title
story to “an ancient monkish legend,” as he set “Carl Werner” in the deepest parts
of the German forest where the narrator and his friend ... |

Chronicles of Ashley River — No. 5Short Stories | 1829-10-15 Launched in 1993 in conjunction with the foundation of the
William Gilmore Simms Society, The Simms
Review touted itself as the official place of record for the Society. In addition, the Review was the first and only academic periodical dedicated to the
life and writings of the famous author.
As such, it served as a gathering place for scholars, Simms family
members, and readers interested in Simms’s work. With its 2012 issue, The Simms Review celebrated its twentieth anniversary,
making it among the longest running continually-published single-author
journals in the country. ... |

Lyrical and Other PoemsPoetry | Ellis & Neufville | 1827
The
Charleston firm of Ellis & Neufville issued Lyrical
and Other Poems, which was Simms’s first published collection of poetry,
in January or early February of 1827. An
early date is most likely, because the copyright notice reprinted at the front
of the text indicates that Ellis & Neufville filed the necessary paperwork
on December 13, 1826, and a review of the volume appeared in the New York Literary Gazette
and American Athenæum on February 3, 1827. The collection was generally well-received by
critics and in later years Simms would recall fondly the praise ... |
