  • Author : William Wordsworth
  • Publisher : Random House
  • Release : 2004-09-30
  • ISBN : 0141915439
  • Pages : 736 pages

Download or read book The Prelude written by William Wordsworth and published by Random House. This book was released on 2004-09-30 with total page 736 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in July 1850, shortly after Wordsworth's death, The Prelude was the culmination of over fifty years of creative work. The great Romantic poem of human consciousness, it takes as its theme 'the growth of a poet's mind': leading the reader back to Wordsworth's formative moments of childhood and youth, and detailing his experiences as a radical undergraduate in France at the time of the Revolution. Initially inspired by Coleridge's exhortation that Wordsworth write a work upon the French Revolution, The Prelude has ultimately become one of the finest examples of poetic autobiography ever written; a fascinating examination of the self that also presents a comprehensive view of the poet's own creative vision.

Book Essays and Letters

Download or read book Essays and Letters written by Friedrich Hölderlin and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2009-08-27 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of Germany's greatest poets, Johann Christian Friedrich Hölderlin (1770-1843) was also a prose writer of intense feeling, intelligence and perception. This new translation of selected letters and essays traces the life and thoughts of this extraordinary writer. Hölderlin's letters to friends and fellow writers such as Hegel, Schiller and Goethe describe his development as a poet, while those written to his family speak with great passion of his beliefs and aspirations, as well as revealing money worries and, finally, the tragic unravelling of his sanity. These works examine Hölderlin's great preoccupations - the unity of existence, the relationship between art and nature and, above all, the spirit of the writer.
