Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Death-Wake; or, Lunacy: A Necromaunt in Three Chimeras" is a narrative poem written by Scottish author and journalist Thomas Tod Stoddart. Published in 1862, this poem is a dark and imaginative work that explores themes of death, the supernatural, and the human psyche. The title itself suggests a fascination with death and the afterlife, using poetic and archaic language to create an eerie and atmospheric tone. Stoddart, known for his contributions to various literary genres, crafted this work during the Victorian era when Gothic and macabre themes were prevalent in literature. The poem is structured in three parts, referred to as "Chimeras," which may indicate a series of fantastical and dreamlike episodes or visions. Stoddart's language is likely to be rich and descriptive, contributing to the eerie and mystical ambiance of the narrative. "The Death-Wake" is not as widely known as some other works from the Victorian era, but it remains an interesting example of the period's fascination with the supernatural and its exploration of the mysterious realms of life and death. If you have access to the full text, you can delve into Stoddart's poetic language and thematic exploration to fully appreciate the nuances of "The Death-Wake."

Book excerpt: The Death-Wake or Lunacy; a Necromaunt in Three Chimeras By Andrew Lang INTRODUCTION The extreme rarity of The Death-Wake is a reason for its republication, which may or may not be approved of by collectors. Of the original edition the Author says that more than seventy copies were sold in the first week of publication, but thereafter the publisher failed in business. Mr. Stoddart recovered the sheets of his poem, and his cook gradually, and perhaps not injudiciously, expended them for domestic purposes. Apart from its rarity, The Death-Wake has an interest of its own for curious amateurs of poetry. The year of its composition (1830) was the great year of Romanticisme in France, the year of Hernani, and of Gautier's gilet rouge. In France it was a literary age given to mediæval extravagance, to the dagger and the bowl, the cloak and sword, the mad monk and the were-wolf; the age of Pétrus Borel and MacKeat, as well as of Dumas and Hugo. Now the official poetry of our country was untouched by and ignorant of the virtues and excesses of 1830. Wordsworth's bolt was practically shot; Sir Walter was ending his glorious career; Shelley and Byron and Keats were dead, and the annus mirabilis of Coleridge was long gone by. Three young poets of the English-speaking race were producing their volumes, destined at first to temporary neglect. The year 1830 was the year of Mr. Tennyson's Poems, chiefly Lyrical, his first book, not counting Poems by Two Brothers. It was also the year of Mr. Browning's Pauline (rarer even than The Death-Wake); and it was the year which followed the second, and perhaps the most characteristic, poetical venture of Edgar Allan Poe. In Mr. Tennyson's early lyrics, and in Mr. Poe's, any capable judge must have recognised new notes of romance. Their accents are fresh and strange, their imaginations dwell in untrodden regions. Untouched by the French romantic poets, they yet unconsciously reply to their notes, as if some influence in the mental air were at work on both sides of the Channel, on both sides of the Atlantic. Now, in my opinion, this indefinite influence was also making itself felt, faintly and dimly, in Scotland. The Death-Wake is the work of a lad who certainly had read Keats, Coleridge and Shelley, but who is no imitator of these great poets. He has, in a few passages, and at his best, an accent original, distinct, strangely musical, and really replete with promise. He has a fresh unborrowed melody and mastery of words, the first indispensable sign of a true poet. His rhymed heroic verse is no more the rhymed heroic verse of Endymion, than it is that of Mr. Pope, or of Mr. William Morris. He is a new master of the old instrument. His mood is that of Scott when Scott was young, and was so anxious to possess a death's head and cross-bones. The malady is "most incident" to youth, but Mr. Stoddart wears his rue with a difference. 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.
