Download or read book English Elegies Classic Reprint written by John Cann Bailey and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from English Elegies The legitimate range of the elegy is, ' however, not confined to the subjects qf Love'and Death. It includes all expressions of what may be one of the highest and most spiritual moods qf the human 'soul. There is no form of sorrow, from the gentle meditative melancholy qf Gray to the passionate outburst of some ardent Elizabethan spirit, of which it is not the natural expression. Indeed, the most famous elegiacs ever written are not those qf an unhappy lover or a bereaved friend, but qf_ an exile, crying for his home. Elegy begins, one may suppose, with what have always been its two special subjects, Love and Death and then it is an easy step from the longing for the absent mistress to the longing for the distant home and from that it is not a great advance. To the scientific definition I have quoted, which calls all poems elegies which describe any particular object as at once desirable and not present.

Download or read book Little Masterpieces of English Poetry Vol 6 written by Henry Van Dyke and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-23 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Little Masterpieces of English Poetry, Vol. 6: Elegies and Hymns In the usage of the people, however, the word has taken a different course. It does not include the poetry of regret for fugitive pleasure or un requited love, nor all the forms of verse in which the poet, to follow Coleridge's phrase, treats of his subject always and exclusively with reference to himself. These are classed with the pure lyrics, or with reflective verse. But an elegy, in common parlance, has come to mean a poem dealing with the thought or the fact of death. It is not an outward, metrical shape: it is an in ward, spiritual form. It is the poetic utterance of the heart of man when he faces the sorrow of mortality. It is the voice in which he answers death and calls after the departed. It is the music with which he at once expresses and soothes the grief of the last farewell, pays tribute to vanished goodness and the memory of noble names, and encourages his own spirit to meet the end that comes to all, with fortitude and an equal mind.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elegies, Vol. 1: Ancient and Modern; With an Introductory Study of the History of Elegiac Poetry From the Earliest Days Down to the Present Time HE issues of life and death, the joy of loving, the sorrow and anguish of parting, touch us as closely, make us feel as keenly, though the conventionalities of an over-refined civilization restrain our utterance, as long ago they affected those who lived in the early freshness of the World. Our first mother Eve poured forth her grief, poignant with loss over the dead body of her son, Abel; and since that time how often has the voice of woe and lamentation been raised beside the form of some loved one, cut Off perhaps in the ower of youth, or in the pride and perfection of man hood, or perhaps, in an old age crowned with fulfill ment of hopes and promises, rich in the accomplish ment of noble ends and deeds. It is, however, for the unfinished, the unaccomplished, for the inheritors of unfulfilled renown, that the note Of pathos strikes most deeply.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elegy Written in Country Churchyard: And Other Poems The great improvement that has taken place, within a few years, in the art of Engraving on Wood, as well as its general adoption, in some measure superseding the use Of Copper and Steel, led to the present attempt to apply this mode of embellishment to a Poem of such general and deserved celebrity, and which appeared to afford the greatest scope for the talents of the artist. The elegy itself has long been universally acknow ledged as one of the most elegant compositions which the English language ever produced.
