This version of the Arcadia was first published in 1926, in Albert Feuillerat's edition of Sidney's collected works. After Sidney's death, his revised Arcadia was prepared for the press and published in two differing editions. Hoping to preempt this fate, Basilius entrusts the Arcadian government to his loyal subject, Philanax, and retires to a pastoral lodge with his wife, Gynecia, their attractive daughters, Pamela and Philoclea, his boorish servant, Dametas, and the latter's repulsive wife and daughter, Miso and Mopsa. Sidney's manuscripts of the Old Arcadia were not published until the 20th century. The New Arcadia, however, was published in two different editions during the 16th century, and enjoyed great popularity for more than a hundred years afterwards. ./cache/en-wikipedia-org-1769.html ./txt/en-wikipedia-org-1769.txt
