Excerpt: ... robert southey. to say that although the principles of art are in their essentials eternal and changeless, the fashionable canons of artistic criticism are temporal and changing, is a platitude almost unpardonable; but it is one which is inevitably suggested to the critic who should endeavour, in the latter half of the nineteenth century, to write in praise of Robert Southey. The list of England's laureates names no poet more widely separated from the world of to-day than this man. Neglect has been his portion for many years--neglect undeserved, but scarcely unnatural, for the pervading spirit of his work is a calm and equable faith which is indeed unattainable, and perhaps undesired, by us. A poet whose characters are often purely abstract conceptions, unhumanly great alike in their virtues and their vices; a poet whose songs neither sweep our hearts with rushing storms of passion, nor lull us with their swooning sweetness, can hope for scanty audience to-day. And yet signs are not wanting that the artistic temper of the age is undergoing change. For the poetry of passion must, in alarge measure, share the transience of its theme; and though in the works of those modern poets who have sung of this most sweetly, there is much of abiding splendour, there is also much of which the world must soon weary. To immortalise the dream of an instant, to stay the dying glory of an afternoon, are things indeed possible to art; but it is always pertinent to inquire if the dream be of things high and holy, and if the day be fit to remain in our memory as a landmark. If these conditions be not fulfilled, then let the dream dissolve, and the sunset die. It is no disparagement of the vital beauty of contemporary poetry to say that much of it already...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Poems of Robert Southey: Containing Thalaba, the Curse Kehama Roderick, Madoc, a Tale of Paraguay and Selected Minor Poems 'Few people,' it has been said, 'have so much and so well as Southey, and have been so little read.' The remark refers to his work as a whole - in prose as well as in verse - but it is singularly applicable to his poetry. As a poet Southey is now scarcely known, save as the author of the lines beginning: 'My days among the Dead are past,' and of a few ballads such as The Battle of Blenheim and The Inchcape Rock, which are learnt by children in the nursery. The general estimations in which he is held may be illustrated by the obiter dictum in a recent review, that 'it is impossible to take Southey as a poet seriously'; and he is usually condemned as unreadable without a trial. But it is surely impossible to accept so summary a verdict - a verdict, be it remarked, which is in direct contradiction to that pronounced upon Southey's poetry by the most competent judges of his own day. No one, indeed, would pretend that Southey was one of the greatest of English poets. His position in our poetical hierarchy is far more modest. But a man may attain to an honourable place on the roll of Parnassus, although he fall considerably short of the highest rank, and in his lifetime Southey had no cause to fear the judgment of his peers. The praise bestowed upon his poetry by S. T. Coleridge, and by W. S. Landor, might perhaps be discounted on the ground that each of these two critics was influenced by close personal friendship for its author. But we may cite the opinions of other men free from any suspicious of such bias and equally well qualified to speak. In 1813 Sir Walter Scott declined the laureateship which had been offered him, (though without the Regent's knowledge or approval), by Lord Liverpool; and in declining he suggested to Croker that the post should be offered to Southey. On September 4 of that year he writes to Southey to explain what he has done, and to make it clear, as he expresses it, that he has not himself refused the laurel 'from any foolish prejudice against the situation: otherwise, how durst I mention it to you, my elder brother in the muse?
