Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Prose Poetry of Thomas De Quincey: Inaugural-Dissertation, Presented to the Faculty of Philosophy of the University of Leipzig, for the Acquisition of the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy 1 I. 10. 2 I 14. 3 XIII. 5 M; cf.

For the sake of those the entire narrative, i. E., of the Confessions, arose.1 As one sees, then, most of this work consists of mere narrative, written hurriedly in the first ln stance; the important part, the amount of impassioned prose ranging under no precedents is relatively small. What De, Quincey had intended to present in the Con fessions is another question. The accidental burning of some and mysterious disappearance of others of the twenty-five dreams and noon-day visions, which he had relied upon as a 'crowning grace, reserved for the final pages', are greatly to be deplored. Some of the papers concerned he hoped to recover, so he says, but the only one of, which positive trace remains is The Daughter of Lebanon. This was burned partially, but not so burned as to be absolutely irretrievable,2 and was first printed in 1856 at the end of the revised edition of the Confessions.

Book excerpt: **LONGLISTED FOR THE BAILLIE GIFFORD PRIZE FOR NON-FICTION 2016** **New York Times Book Review, Times Literary Supplement and Guardian Best Books of 2016** 'Life for De Quincey was either angels ascending on vaults of cloud or vagrants shivering on the city streets.' The last of the Romantics, Thomas De Quincey is a name synonymous with scandal. Modelling his character on Coleridge and his sensibility on Wordsworth, De Quincey took over the latter's former cottage and turned it into an opium den. Here, in the throes of his high, he nurtured his growing hatred of his former idols and wrote the notorious and fascinatingly strange essay 'On Murder Considered as one of the Fine Arts'. Despite never achieving the literary deification of his contemporaries, his narrative style – scripted and sculptured emotional memoir – was to inspire generations of writers: Dickens, Dostoevsky, Virginia Woolf. James Joyce knew whole pages of his work off by heart and he was arguably the father of what we now call psychogeography. Guilty Thing tells the riches-to-rags story of a dazzlingly complex and troubled figure, whose life was lived on the run, and affords De Quincey the literary biography he deserves.

Download or read book Suspiria de Profundis written by Thomas De Quincey and published by BoD - Books on Demand. This book was released on 2023-05-13 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Suspiria is a collection of prose poems, or what De Quincey called “impassioned prose,” erratically written and published starting in 1854. Each Suspiria is a short essay written in reflection of the opium dreams De Quincey would experience over the course of his lifetime addiction, and they are considered by some critics to be some of the finest examples of prose poetry in all of English literature. De Quincey originally planned them as a sequel of sorts to his Confessions of an English Opium-Eater, but the first set was published separately in Blackwood’s Magazine in the spring and summer of that 1854. De Quincey then published a revised version of those first Suspiria, along with several new ones, in his collected works. During his life he kept a master list of titles of the Suspiria he planned on writing, and completed several more before his death; those that survived time and fire were published posthumously in 1891.
