Download or read book John Clare written by R. Sales and published by Springer. This book was released on 2001-12-12 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book situates John Clare's long, prolific but often badly neglected literary life within the wider cultural histories of the Regency and earlier Victorian periods. The first half considers the construction of the Regency peasant-poet and how Clare performed this role on stages such as the London Magazine. It also looks at the way in which it went out of fashion as Regency mentalities were replaced by early Victorian ones. The second half recreates asylum culture and places Clare's performances as Regency boxers and Lord Byron within this bleak new world.

Book Some Desperate Glory

    Book Details:
  • Author : Max Egremont
  • Publisher : Farrar, Straus and Giroux
  • Release : 2014-06-10
  • ISBN : 0374713030
  • Pages : 353 pages

Download or read book Some Desperate Glory written by Max Egremont and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2014-06-10 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Max Egremont's Some Desperate Glory presents the story of World War I through the lives and words of its poets. The hundredth anniversary of the outbreak of what many believed would be the war to end all wars is in 2014. And while World War I devastated Europe, it inspired profound poetry—words in which the atmosphere and landscape of battle are evoked perhaps more vividly than anywhere else. The poets—many of whom were killed—show not only the war's tragedy but also the hopes and disappointments of a generation of men. In Some Desperate Glory, the historian and biographer Max Egremont gives us a transfiguring look at the life and work of this assemblage of poets. Wilfred Owen with his flaring genius; the intense, compassionate Siegfried Sassoon; the composer Ivor Gurney; Robert Graves, who would later spurn his war poems; the nature-loving Edward Thomas; the glamorous Fabian Socialist Rupert Brooke; and the shell-shocked Robert Nichols—all fought in the war, and their poetry is a bold act of creativity in the face of unprecedented destruction. Some Desperate Glory includes a chronological anthology of the poets' works, telling the story of the war not only through the lives of these writers but also through their art. This unique volume unites the poetry and the history of the war—so often treated separately—granting readers the pride, strife, and sorrow of the individual soldier's experience coupled with a panoramic view of the war's toll on an entire nation.
