Book excerpt: Excerpt from George Crabbe and His Times, 1754-1832: A Critical and Biographical Study A week after Crabbe's death, on February 13th, 1832, Murray wrote to George I hope the family have materials for communicating an ia teresting account of his life to the public, for he is allowed on all hands to have been one of the most eminent of British poets. For a year it was intended to publish, not only the work of the Biographer, but also the Posthumous T ales, preceded by a memoir from Miss Hoare, a friend of the poet (see below, pp. 471 seq). This lady gave up her plan in May, 1833, and George remained the sole biographer. George did not submit without a struggle. But his first draft seems to have been very careless, for Rogers writes to him bluntly, on March ut, 1833: As to the Memoirs, they are certainly now very unfit for publication. Lockhart consequently obtamed permission to do as he liked. In November, 1833, he wrote to George I perceive that, as the work proceeds, the alterations to be suggested by me will be lessening gradually both in number and importance. The Life of Crabbe appeared on February loth, 1834, and had a considerable success. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book was first published in 1968 First appearing in 1907, René Huchon with the help of original manuscripts rewrote the biography of Crabbe published by his son in 1834. As the title suggests, however, Huchon was not merely concerned with the presentation of Crabbe as a literary figure in isolation, and by conjuring up the atmosphere and background of the eighteenth century he is able to shed new light on Crabbe's poetry.There are descriptions of Aldborough, of the desolate heaths and marshy wastes where Crabbe spent his unhappy youth, which together with his background of poverty, and familiarity with the life of the country poor, led him to revolt against the current trend of pastoral poetry. At the time the most detailed study of Crabbe, this work is of foremost importance, for rarely is a poety placed so securely in his setting, and both followers of the poet, and devotees of the eighteenth century will welcome this being freely available agian.

Download or read book George Crabbe written by Frank S. Whitehead and published by Susquehanna University Press. This book was released on 1995 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: George Crabbe: A Reappraisal is centered on the belief that Crabbe, particularly in his verse-tales, is an important, even major, poet whose work has been and still is seriously undervalued. After an introductory chapter, the next five chapters in Part 1 offer a straightforward account of the changes in Crabbe's poetry up to its pinnacle of achievement in 1812, tracing its development from the generalized discursive poetical essays of the 1780s through the particularized character sketches and anecdotes of The Parish Register and much of The Borough to the full-length verse-tales that reach their full maturity in Tales (1812).
Download or read book Delphi Complete Poetical Works of George Crabbe Illustrated written by George Crabbe and published by Delphi Classics. This book was released on 2021-08-13 with total page 2562 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last of the Augustan poets, following Dryden and Pope in the use of the heroic couplet, George Crabbe was an important literary figure of the early nineteenth century. Lord Byron famously described him as “nature’s sternest painter, yet the best.” Esteemed by the Romantics as a rebel against the genteel fancy of his day, Crabbe pleaded for the poet’s right to describe the commonplace realities and miseries of human life. He is best known for his early use of the realistic narrative form and his detailed descriptions of middle and working-class life, which is unsentimental in its portrayal. The Delphi Poets Series offers readers the works of literature’s finest poets, with superior formatting.

Download or read book The Literary Economy of Jane Austen and George Crabbe written by Colin Winborn and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-28 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though Jane Austen (1775-1817) and the poet George Crabbe (1754-1832) each wrote during the Napoleonic Wars, no full-length study has considered the importance of these pivotal events to their writing. In The Literary Economy of Jane Austen and George Crabbe, the author argues that both writers were unusually responsive to the economic anxieties specific to wartime, occasioned especially by the Napoleonic trade embargo imposed on Britain from 1806 to 1812, and shared a particular concern with the economizing of space. The author's term 'spatial economy' refers to the practice of turning available resources to the best possible account, which these authors applied even to the practice of writing as they strove to preserve space on the page (Austen in her letters and Crabbe in the couplet). Their work displays a preoccupation with boundaries, pressure, and containment, which also informs economic treatises published during this period. Through close readings and fresh contextual and historical analysis that draws on the ideas of contemporary thinkers such as Thomas Malthus, William Spence, William Cobbett, Arthur Young, and Humphrey Repton, Winborn not only establishes a close affinity between Austen and Crabbe but makes a convincing case for rethinking the relationship between the novel and poetry during the Romantic period.
