Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mr. Buchanan contributed largely to periodical literature, and one of his essays in the Contemporary Review acquired I some notoriety. This was the essay entitled "The Fleshly School of Poetry." It was of the nature of an attack on the "Poems" of Dante G. Rossetti, published in 1870. Apart from the justice or injustice of the strictures, a bitter controversy arose out of the identity of the critic, who appeared (at his publisher's suggestion) under the pseudonym of "Thomas Maitland." The quarrel, in which Mr. Swinburne became involved, was very protracted, and Mr. Buchanan subsequently retracted some of his charges. Mr. Buchanan had by this time become celebrated as a novelist. His best novels, "The Shadow of the Sword," "God and the Man," "The New Abelard," and "Foxglove Manor" are distinguished by rare picturesqueness and vigorous dramatic narrative. As a dramatist, Mr. Buchanan has had some distinct success, the best of his plays being "A Nine Days' Queen," and the most popular ''Lady Clare," "Storm-Beaten,'' and ''Sophia.'' -The Magazine of Poetry and Literary Review, Volume 3 [1891] * * * * * An excerpt from page 67: ...I do not know Mr. Rossetti, have no grievance against him, and I can quite believe that in private life he is a most exemplary person; but in his poetry-to go no further at present than that very small phase of a portentous phenomenon-there is a veritably stupendous preponderance of sensuality and sickly animalism. I base that belief, not merely on stray expressions such as I quoted, not merely on lines about the "lipping of limbs," "bubbling of kisses, " "fawning of lips" in bed, "munching of mouths, " and all the inordinate coarseness of the fleshly vocabulary, but on the persistent choice of subjects repulsive in themselves, and capable of fleshly treatment, such as the lyric about Jenny the street-walker, who "advertises dainties through the dirt," and is serenaded by the poet in a brothel; the poem about Lilith the Snake, and her gripping and lipping, and general arts of fornication; and the nuptial sonnet which Mr. Rossetti studiously refrains from quoting, knowing that it would condemn him fatally in all decent eyes.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fleshly School of Poetry and Other Phenomena of the Day, Vol. 2 My imputed crime is as follows: that I did not sign my own name to the article, and that I spoke in high terms of my own poems. The first account has been disposed of by the simple statement that I did not sign the article at all. If it be retorted that the rule of the Contemporary Review is never to admit pseudonyms or unsigned articles, I answer that at least three of the regular contributors to that Review have habitually used pseudonyms, and that, in an early number of the same publication, Dean Mansell sharply criticized Mr. Mill in an unsigned article in which he spoke of himself in the third person, afterwards reprinting the article, with his own name, as "The Philosophy of the Conditioned." The second count, which charges me with secret self-praise, is so absurd an attempt to distract judgment that it is almost unworthy of mention. In an opening paragraph (now suppressed for its weakness) I drew out a sort of sketch of Hamlet as "cast" by, the contemporary poets, Mr. Tennyson of course assuming the leading character; and among the list of smaller parts I humorously spoke of myself as playing the part of - what? Horatio? The King? Polonius? Rosencranz? Guildenstem? Osric? Of none of these, small or great, but simply that of "Cornelius " About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Darwin Literature and Victorian Respectability written by Gowan Dawson and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2007-04-12 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The success of Charles Darwin's evolutionary theories in mid-nineteenth-century Britain has long been attributed, in part, to his own adherence to strict standards of Victorian respectability, especially in regard to sex. Gowan Dawson contends that the fashioning of such respectability was by no means straightforward or unproblematic, with Darwin and his principal supporters facing surprisingly numerous and enduring accusations of encouraging sexual impropriety. Integrating contextual approaches to the history of science with work in literary studies, Dawson sheds light on the well-known debates over evolution by examining them in relation to the murky underworlds of Victorian pornography, sexual innuendo, unrespectable freethought and artistic sensualism. Such disreputable and generally overlooked aspects of nineteenth-century culture were actually remarkably central to many of these controversies. Focusing particularly on aesthetic literature and legal definitions of obscenity, Dawson reveals the underlying tensions between Darwin's theories and conventional notions of Victorian respectability.
