Book excerpt: Excerpt from Poems of William Edmondstoune Aytoun This edition of Aytoun's poems contains, with one exception, all those poems and translations of which the undivided authorship is known to be his. The one exception is his translation of the Iliad, Book XXII. This may be found in Blackwood's Magazine, vol. xlv, pp. 634-642. Its omission here will be pardoned. It is by the kind permission of Messrs. William Blackwood Sons that it has been possible to include Aytoun's contributions to the Bon Gaullier Ballads and to The Poems and Ballads of Goethe, as determined by Sir Theodore Martin, Aytoun's collaborator in both books. It will be understood, of course, that some of the poems and translations not included in this edition were the joint productions of the two writers. In 'The Oxford Poets' it is the rule not to give any critical appraisement of the poet, but the present editor may be allowed to say that he finds his greatest satisfaction in having been able to put before the reader all those pieces on which are based Aytoun's claims as a humorist: his contributions to the Bon Gaultier Ballads and the anticipatory pseudo-review of Firmilian, and Firmilian itself. These last two, famous as they are, are now reprinted for the first time. The miscellaneous character of Aytoun's work not lending itself to chronological arrangement, the poems have been grouped according to character: romantic poems, humorous poems, translations, and juvenilia.

Download or read book Lays of the Scottish Cavaliers and Other Poems written by William Edmondstoune Aytoun and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-08-12 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William Edmondstoune Aytoun's 'Lays of the Scottish Cavaliers and Other Poems' is a collection of historical ballads and romantic verses that capture the spirit of Scotland's past. Written in a lyrical and evocative style, the poems transport readers to a bygone era of chivalry and honor. Aytoun's masterful use of language and vivid imagery adds depth and richness to each narrative, making the reader feel truly immersed in the stories he recounts. Set against the backdrop of Scotland's turbulent history, these poems provide a glimpse into the lives of the brave warriors and passionate lovers who shaped the nation's identity. Aytoun's work is a testament to the enduring power of poetry to convey the emotions and experiences of the human heart. William Edmondstoune Aytoun, a Scottish poet and professor of literature, was deeply influenced by his country's rich cultural heritage. His passion for Scottish history and folklore is evident in 'Lays of the Scottish Cavaliers and Other Poems,' where he pays tribute to the heroes and heroines of the past. Aytoun's commitment to preserving Scotland's literary traditions shines through in his meticulous research and attention to detail. I highly recommend 'Lays of the Scottish Cavaliers and Other Poems' to anyone interested in Scottish history, poetry, or romantic literature. Aytoun's timeless verses will captivate readers with their beauty and depth, offering a glimpse into the soul of a nation defined by courage and passion.

This book was released on 2018-06-27 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bon Gaultier Ballads W. E. (William Edmondstoune) Aytoun A further edition of this book-the sixteenth-having been called for, I have been asked by the publishers to furnish a preface to it. For prefaces I have no love. Books should speak for themselves. Prefaces can scarcely be otherwise than egotistic, and one would not willingly add to the too numerous illustrations of this tendency with which the literature of the day abounds. I would much rather leave the volume with the simple "Envoy" which I wrote for it when the Bon Gaultier Ballads were first gathered into a volume. There the products of the dual authorship of Aytoun and myself were ascribed to the Bon Gaultier under whose editorial auspices they had for the most part seen the light. But my publishers tell me that people want to know why, and how, and by which of us these poems were written, -curiosity, complimentary, no doubt, but which it is by no means easy for the surviving bard to satisfy. It is sixty years since most of these verses were written with the light heart and fluent pen of youth, and with no thought of their surviving beyond the natural life of ephemeral magazine pieces of humour. After a long and very crowded life, of which literature has occupied the smallest part, it is difficult for me to live back into the circumstances and conditions under which they were written, or to mark, except to a very limited extent, how far to Aytoun, and how far to myself, separately, the contents of the volume are to be assigned. I found this difficult when I wrote Aytoun's Life in 1867, and it is necessarily a matter of greater difficulty now in 1903. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic work, and that for you it becomes an enriching experience.
