Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pro Patria: A Book of Patriotic Verse It was that conviction that primarily led to the compilation of this anthology. At the same time it was felt that the present time was suitable for the issue of such a collection. We are passing through a crisis in the history of civilisation, and it is fitting that the children of to-day who will be the reapers of the harvest which we, with much labour, have prepared for them, should realise something of the nature of the task and the part that every patriotic Briton must play. Here they will read of those elements in our national character which have built up a world-embracing Empire that scorns to sell its honour for petty bribes: they will see that the greatness of their land has been evolved out of the self-sacrifice, the devotion to duty and the respect for truth of her people, and they will be inspired to tread nobly, whatever the cost, in the footsteps of the heroes of yesterday. Nor need we fear the cultivation of a mere Jingoism, or, on the other hand, a vainglorious self-eleva tion and lust for blood. It is not the melancholy side of war, its devastating horrors and its inhumanity that are usually the poet's theme. The passing tribute of a sigh changes to fervid exultation over the greatness of the nature of man - a greatness that manifests itself in a thousand varied ways when danger to hearth, to children and to country is near. Such poems must be morally harmless. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of British and Irish War Poetry written by Tim Kendall and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2007-02-22 with total page 771 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thirty-seven chapters, written by leading literary critics from across the world, describe the latest thinking about twentieth-century war poetry. The book maps both the uniqueness of each war and the continuities between poets of different wars, while the interconnections between the literatures of war and peacetime, and between combatant and civilian poets, are fully considered. The focus is on Britain and Ireland, but links are drawn with the poetry of the United States and continental Europe. The Oxford Handbook feeds a growing interest in war poetry and offers, in toto, a definitive survey of the terrain. It is intended for a broad audience, made up of specialists and also graduates and undergraduates, and is an essential resource for both scholars of particular poets and for those interested in wider debates about modern poetry. This scholarly and readable assessment of the field will provide an important point of reference for decades to come.
