Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Poems of Fancy and Imagination Fairy-Land. I do not know, nor do I care, When it was, or how, or where I gained the heart of fairy-land: All I know and all I care - As celestial memory Of a rosy revery With gladd'ning song returns to me- Is to feel that I was there! There to see its charming sights; There to taste its sweet delights; There to revel in its blisses; There to feast me with its kisses; There to air my fretted mind In its healing, balmy wind; And there to let my fancy play In childhood's golden holiday. Oh, 'twas ravishingly rare All the wonder I saw there!

Download or read book Poems of Imagination and Fancy Classic Reprint written by Alfred Tennyson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-10-07 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Poems of Imagination and Fancy The greatest thing in poetry is the comfort it gives the human heart. It comes like a friend into the inner sanctuary of the soul, with its throbbing love, its calming philosophy, and its revelation of God and eternity. Nothing else can do this so completely as literature, and poetry, the highest form of literature. Poetry is like music, and also like painting. Like music it rolls like the rolling of the waves, or murmurs like the Wind among the trees, or rolls and murmurs and whispers all at the same time, like a beautiful summer's day when all the birds are singing and the sun is shining and the owers are blooming, and the sky is blue, and the air is soft and warm. Like painting it reproduces the blue sky, the delicate green leaves, the long sweep of the waves, and the dew-drops on the grass in the morning sunlight. Tennyson was the greatest modern master of the technique of music in words and beautiful pictures in words. Like Paderewski he learned to touch the keys of language and produce an infinite variety of pleasing, beautiful sounds; and beyond any painter he could with words weave exquisitely perfect and entrancing images and scenes, that were like a mosaic of diamonds, emeralds, rubies, and sapphires, reproducing violets, roses, long, lush ferns, stately trees, and still fairer women and heroic men.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Children of Fancy: Poems The tide is now at the ebb and I hear it swirling among the rocks and regurgitating in ceaseless eddyings through the long weed, that waits with slender, tensile fingers to entangle and drag down some unwary swimmer. The wind is blowing in squalls, suddenly blackening the water and lightly carrying off the surface and blowing it to smoke; while behind me the grass and the young corn change in silvery patches with the passing gusts. But amid it all I see her little face, that with its great mysterious grey eyes still shines in undimmed beauty from the past, and to which these verses are dedicate. It was once, and it shall be again; the tide will return and the wind will fall away. I have not always known, but yesterday I climbed the Hills of the Mist, and shook the unyielding bars of the gates of Death; and then I knew; - What is one life in immortality?

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shelley's Later Poetry: A Study of His Prophetic Imagination Using Prometheus Unbound as its organizing center, this book describes the materials and traces the unfinished argument Of Shelley's poetry in his Italian period. But more is attempted than Simply an exposition Of meaning. The form of Shelley's argument and the nature of his figures of speech imply a theory of poetry and reveal the way his imagination worked.

Download or read book English Songs and Other Small Poems Classic Reprint written by Barry Cornwall and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-19 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from English Songs, and Other Small Poems It may be thought paradoxical to assert that the songs which occur in dramas are more natural than those which proceed from the author in person: yet such is generally the case. If, indeed, a poet wrote purely and seasonably only, - that is to say, if his poetry sprung always from the passion or humor of the moment, the fact might be other wise. But it may easily be seen, that many rhymes are produced out of season; and are often nothing more than the result of ingenuity taxed to the uttermost; or otherwise, are simply the indiscretions of gentlemen at ease, ' who have nothing, or nothing better to do. Now Poetry is not to be thus constrained nor is it ever the offspring of ennui or languor. It demands not only the 'faculty divine, ' (so called, ) but also, that it should be left to its own impulses. The intellectual faculties are, in no one, always in a state of tension, or capable of projecting those thoughts which, in happier moments, are cast forth With perfect ease, - and which, when thrown out by the Imagination or the Fancy, constitute the charm, and indeed form the essence of poetry.

Download or read book An Answer to the Question What Is Poetry written by Leigh Hunt and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-09-16 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Answer to the Question 'What Is Poetry?': Including Remarks on Versification Poetry is a passion,1 because it seeks the deepest impressions; and because it must undergo, in order to convey them. It is a passion for truth, because without truth the impression would be false or defective. It is a passion for beauty, because its office is to exalt and refine by means of pleasure, and because beauty is nothing but the loveliest form of pleasure. It is a passion for power, because power is impression triumphant, whether over the poet, as desired by himself, or over the reader, as affected by the poet. It embodies and illustrates its impressions by imagination, or images of the objects of which it treats, and other images brought in to throw light on those objects, in order that it may enjoy and impart the feeling of their truth in its utmost conviction and affluence. It illustrates them by fancy, which is a lighter play of imagination, or the feeling of analogy coming short of seriousness, in order that it may laugh with what it loves, and show how it can decorate it with fairy ornament.
