Book An Elizabethan Garland

Download or read book An Elizabethan Garland written by George Daniel and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-06-25 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Elizabethan Garland: Being a Descriptive Catalogue of Seventy Black-Letter Ballads, Printed Between the Years 1550 and 1597 We delight in a Fiddler's Fling full of mirth and pastime! And revel in the exhilarating perfume of those odoriferous' chaplets gathered on sunshiny holidays and star-twinkling nights bewail ing how beautiful maidens meet. With faithless wooers, and how fond shepherds are jilted by deceitful damsels. How despairing Corydons hang, and how desponding Phillidas drown themselves. How ghosts haunt and inflict vengeance. How disappointed lovers go to sea, and how forlorn lasses follow them in jackets and trousers! Sir George Etheridge, in his comedy of Love in a Tub, says, Expect at night to see the old man with his paper lantern and crack'd spectacles, singing you woeful tragedies to kitchen-maids, and cobblers' apprentices. Aubrey mentions that his nurse could repeat the history of England, from the Conquest to the time of Charles I. In ballads. In Walton's Angler, Piscator having caught a chub, conducts Venator to an honest alehouse where they would find a cleanly room, lavender in the windows, and twenty ballads stuck about the wall. When I travelled, says The Spectator, I took a particular delight in hearing the songs and fables that are come from father to son, and are most in vogue among the common people of the countries through which I passed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No period of British history generates such deep interest as the reign of Elizabeth I, from 1558 to 1603. The individuals and events of that era continue to be popular topics for contemporary literature and film, and Elizabethan drama, poetry, and music are studied and enjoyed everywhere by students, scholars, and the general public.

The first dictionary of history to focus exclusively on the reign of Elizabeth I, the Dictionary is also the first to take a broad trans-Atlantic approach to the period by including relevant individuals and terms from Irish, Scottish, Welsh, American, and Western European history.

Life of William Shakespeare is a biography of William Shakespeare by the eminent critic Sidney Lee. This book was one of the first major biographies of the Bard of Avon. It was published in 1898, based on the article contributed to the Dictionary of National Biography. William Shakespeare (1564 – 1616) was an English poet and playwright, widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and the world's pre-eminent dramatist. He is often called England's national poet and the "Bard of Avon". His extant works, including some collaborations, consist of about 38 plays, 154 sonnets, two long narrative poems, and a few other verses, the authorship of some of which is uncertain. Sir Sidney Lee (1859 – 1926) was an English biographer and critic. He was a lifelong scholar and enthusiast of Shakespeare. His article on Shakespeare in the fifty-first volume of the Dictionary of National Biography formed the basis of his Life of William Shakespeare. This full-length life is often credited as the first modern biography of the poet.
