Download or read book The Book of Irish Poetry Classic Reprint written by Alfred Perceval Graves and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-27 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Book of Irish Poetry Thomas Moore was more individual as a poet than any of the Young Ireland group yet, whilst he undoubtedly possessed the Irish characteristics of wit and fancy, sentiment and satire, he had nothing of the spirit of the Irish countryside in his composition. Irish was not spoken by his parents or neighbours in Dublin, and when years afterwards he was seeking materials for his History of Ireland in the library of Trinity College, Dublin, he was amazed to find what a great body of Gaelic literature in prose and verse, utterly new to him, lay collected there before his eyes. The classics inspired the anacreontics of Thomas Little his poetical tales, coloured though they were by his Celtic imagination as well as by his West Indian recollections, were entirely derived from Eastern, never from Irish sources. The only purely Irish influence upon his work was that of Irish music, and that influence has made his Irish melodies, in part at any rate, imperish able.

The Liberal Arts are the children of a virtuous, unboastful Liberty, frank-hearted, and not self-respecting alone, but full of respect for all that is human. Their larger growths are quickened from the soil of sympathies wide as the earth, and are freshened b'y aspirations not restrained to the earth. Like the spontaneous growths of Nature, they are also in part, it is true, Traditions; but the allegation that America must wait long for a past, is an error. She has only to remember, as well as look forward, and the Past of all those nations from which her race is derived is her Past also.

Download or read book A Book of Irish Verse written by W. B. Yeats and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-30 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Book of Irish Verse: Selected From Modern Writers They were losing with Gaelic, and these methods, which have shaped the literary thought of Ireland to our time, could not be the same as the methods of a movement which, so far as it is more than an instinctive expression of certain moods of the soul, endeavours to create a reading class among the more leisured classes, which will preoccupy itself with Ireland and the needs of Ireland. The peasants in eastern counties have their Young Ireland poetry, which is always good teaching and sometimes good poetry, and the peasants of the western counties have beautiful poems and stories in Gaelic, while our more leisured classes read little about any country, and nothing about Ireland. We cannot move these classes from an apathy, come from their separation from the land they live in, by writing about politics or about Gaelic, but we may move them by becoming men of letters and expressing primary emotions and truths in ways appropriate to this country. One carries on the traditions of Thomas Davis, towards whom our eyes must always turn, not less than the traditions of good literature, which are the morality of the man of letters, when one is content, like A E. With fewer readers that one may follow a more hidden beauty; or when one. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book A Treasury of Irish Poetry in the English Tongue Classic Reprint written by Stopford Augustus Brooke and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-30 with total page 626 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treasury of Irish Poetry in the English Tongue On the other hand, the gain to Irishmen of speaking and writing in English is very great. It enables them to put their national aspirations, and the thoughts and passions which are best expressed in poetry, into a language which is rapidly becoming universal. It enables them to tell the world of literature of the ancient myths, legends, and stories of Ireland, and to represent them, in a modern dress, by means of a language which is read and understood by millions of folk in every part of the world. These considerations lie at the root of the matter, and if Irish writers do not deviate into an imita tion of English literature, but cling close to the spirit of their native land, they do well for their country when they use the English tongue.

Download or read book Irish Poems written by Matthew Maguire and published by Everyman's Library POCKET POETS. This book was released on 2011 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With its roots in the devotional verse of the early Christian church and the long lyric poems of the Irish bards, Irish poetry has a rich and robust tradition both of engagement and self-reflection. It has grappled long with politics and has provided the most eloquent response to Ireland's turbulent history, mediating and mitigating histories of loyalty and loss; it has soaked itself in the Irish landscape and Celtic myth; it has encompassed religion, so much a part of Ireland's cultural heritage. At the same time Irish poets have given their own original slant to everyday experience and affairs of the heart.Thematically organized and spanning many centuries, this selection also features a section of Gaelic poetry in translation, notably excerpts from the 18th-century epic masterpiece, Brian Merriman's The Midnight Court.

Download or read book Modern Anglo Irish Verse written by Padric Gregory and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-03 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern Anglo-Irish Verse: An Anthology Selected From the Work of Living Irish Poets This is an anthology of verse by some living Irish poets. It does not include selections from the work of every one writing verse in Ireland to-day, and I have quoted only from three or four writers who have severed connection with their country and are gone to reside abroad. It is not merely a book of poets and poetasters for if the preparation of anything so comprehensive - and for that matter so valueless - had been my aim, I could easily have doubled the number of names herein represented. On the other hand, although this book contains no poem that does not reach a relatively (high standard of excellence, as it con tains dialect work, historical ballads, and a variety of miscellaneous verse, it cannot be described as an anthology of great poems.

Download or read book Selections From Ancient Irish Poetry Classic Reprint written by Kuno Meyer and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-18 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Selections From Ancient Irish Poetry Romanised Gauls were carrying off the palm of Roman eloquence. By the sixth century the Gaulish language was everywhere extinct, without having left behind a single record of its literature. The same fate was shared by all Celtic nationalities of the Continent, and by those numerous Germanic tribes that were conquered by Rome, or came within the sphere of the later Roman civilisation. In Britain, where the Roman occupation was only temporary, its denationalising effect may be gauged by the numerous Latin loan-words pre served to the present day in the Welsh language, by the partial Romanisation of British personal names, by the early inscribed stones, which, unlike those of Ireland, are all in Latin, and by the late and slow beginnings of a literature in the vernacular.
