Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Poems by the Wayside: Written During More Than Forty Years The Dream of a Child was a real dream, that came to me at least as early as my ninth year, - perhaps earlier. It left an indelible impression. The trees mentioned - the locust and the mulberry - grew near the door of my Father's house in Allegheny City, near Pittsburgh. The place is now known as Killbuck. The Bees of St. Simon's, and the verses following it, were published in Savannah, with some much longer pieces written by my oldest sister, Mrs. Charlotte Emily Fay, in deference to the urgency of an enthusiastic friend, who thought that the profits would be something hand some for Missions. Of course, the only result was a dead loss of the entire cost of publication. As to Hughie's Alarm, and the Anticipation of the Lawn beth Conference, I would respectfully refer the Reader to the Notes.

Download or read book Poetry Pictures and Popular Publishing written by Lorraine Janzen Kooistra and published by Ohio University Press. This book was released on 2014-10-07 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Poetry, Pictures, and Popular Publishing eminent Rossetti scholar Lorraine Janzen Kooistra demonstrates the cultural centrality of a neglected artifact: the Victorian illustrated gift book. Turning a critical lens on “drawing-room books” as both material objects and historical events, Kooistra reveals how the gift book’s visual/verbal form mediated “high” and popular art as well as book and periodical publication. A composite text produced by many makers, the poetic gift book was designed for domestic space and a female audience; its mode of publication marks a significant moment in the history of authorship, reading, and publishing. With rigorous attention to the gift book’s aesthetic and ideological features, Kooistra analyzes the contributions of poets, artists, engravers, publishers, and readers and shows how its material form moved poetry into popular culture. Drawing on archival and periodical research, she offers new readings of Eliza Cook, Adelaide Procter, and Jean Ingelow and shows the transatlantic reach of their verses. Boldly resituating Tennyson’s works within the gift-book economy he dominated, Kooistra demonstrates how the conditions of corporate authorship shaped the production and receptionof the laureate’s verses at the peak of his popularity. Poetry, Pictures, and Popular Publishing changes the map of poetry’s place—in all its senses—in Victorian everyday life and consumer culture.

Download or read book Poems and Prose written by Gerard Manley Hopkins and published by . This book was released on 1954 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his poetry Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844 89) sought to discover afresh the potentialities of language, and to that end developed his idiosyncratic theories of instress, inscape and sprung rhythm. Hopkins's verse is also informed by his religious beliefs; having converted to the Roman Catholic Church in 1866, he became a Jesuit priest eleven years later. However, his poetry is free from a sense of religious dogma, and instead offers a whole hearted involvement with all aspects of life, a love of nature and a search for a unifying sacramental view of creation. His best known poems include 'The Wreck of the Deutschland', 'The Windhover', 'Pied Beauty', 'Spring and Fall', 'Carrion Comfort' and 'Harry Ploughman'.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wayside Poems Once more beside the familiar well-curb and its cool-dripping bucket, after years of wandering and sojourning in many lands! It has been the author's fortune, since the publication of his Old Homestead Poems, to realize an early dream - to dwell for a time in the land of his fathers, and muse amid the historic shrines of the fairest city in Europe. The favorable reception of his first volume on both sides of the Atlantic, and of the Clover and Heather edition by Blackwood & Sons, of Edinburgh and London, has prompted him to present these later Verses by the Wayside. Many are associated with happy friendships, formed during a delightful period of consular life at Edinburgh, many more with scenes and love-lit memories of our own country, with here and there a lyric-dream belonging to every land and every age. Principal Fairbairn, of Oxford University, has kindly said that several are "fragrant of both soils," and that it was "a happy thought to wed, through Scott and Irving, the Tweed and the Hudson." To bind the world in sweeter relationship is the highest province of literature. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
