Book The Language of Flowers

Download or read book The Language of Flowers written by Beverly Seaton and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 2012-10-10 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author traces the phenomenon of ascribing sentimental meaning to floral imagery from its beginnings in Napoleonic France through its later transformations in England and America. At the heart of the book is a depiction of what the three most important flower books from each of the countries divulge about the period and the respective cultures. Seaton shows that the language of flowers was not a single and universally understood correlation of flowers to meanings that men and women used to communicate in matters of love and romance. The language differs from book to book, country to country. To place the language of flowers in social and literary perspective, the author examines the nineteenth-century uses of flowers in everyday life and in ceremonies and rituals and provides a brief history of floral symbolism. She also discusses the sentimental flower book, a genre especially intended for female readers. Two especially valuable features of the book are its table of correlations of flowers and their meanings from different sourcebooks and its complete bibliography of language of flower titles. This book will appeal not only to scholars in Victorian studies and women's studies but also to art historians, book collectors, museum curators, historians of horticulture, and anyone interested in nineteenth-century popular culture.

Barry Cornwall. Crocus.. ..Youth. The Crocus is one of the earliest of the spring flowers, and, therefore, a fit emblem of the spring of life. It. is a small flower, of variegated hues; the principal being purple, yellow, and white. The Crocus Vernus, or Spring Crocus, is a wild flower now in various parts of England, though not considered to be really a native of the country. We learn from the favourite writers, Mr. and Mrs. Ilowitt, that they are plentiful about Nottingham, ' gleaming at a distance like a perfect flood of lilac, and tempting very many little hearts, and many graver ones too, to go out and gather. Oh many a glorious flower there grows In far and richer lands; But high in my affection e'er The beautiful Crocus stands. . I love their faces, when by one And two they're looking out; I love them when the spreading field Is purple all about. I loved them in the by-gone years Of childhood's thoughtless laughter, When I marvelled why the flowers came first, And the leaves tie season after. Crocus. I loved them then, I love them now? The gentle and the bright; I love them for the thoughts they bring Of spring's returning light; When, first-born of the waking earth, Their kindred gay appear, And, with the Snowdrop, usher in The hope-invested year. Louisa A. Faamley You're glad Because your little tiny nose, Turns up so pert and funny; Because I know you choose your beaux More for their mirth than money; Because your eyes are deep and blue, ? Your fingers long and rosy; Because a little maid like you Would make one's home so cozy; Because, I think, (I'.
