Book The Realistic Revolt in Modern Poetry  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Realistic Revolt in Modern Poetry Classic Reprint written by Arthur Melville Clark and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-15 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Realistic Revolt in Modern Poetry But like every new movement, the reaction against Victorianism and romance has its extremists who seem determined, above all else, on being original, without con sidering that their changes in the artistic medium, by which they have to communicate with their audience, are too violent and sudden. It is true that an ancient Greek would be as much at a loss before the statuary of Rousseaux as before our photographs: the gulf between the art which he knew and that of modern Europe is too wide to be jumped at one bound. Nor must we forget that the idiom and inflection of the language of art changes as much as the ordinary speech of a community, and that after two thousand years it will be unintelligible to its older speakers. But though it changes, the change is gradual and in the development of art, the characteristic expression of the msthetic consciousness through the ages, we never find lacunae. Though the barbarians may have destroyed classic art and built their own out of its ruins, yet within the classical period or within the modern, between the cataclysms that blot out all traditions, the continuity of art is clear and certain.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rosetta: A Poem of the Southern Rebellion Hen the shafts of envious criticism were hurled against Byron's genius, he had the courage to exclaim, Prepare for rhyme; I 'll publish, right or wrong! And under the same circumstances, I would not hesitate to make the same statement. But I have not written this for the purpose of challenging criticism. I know that it is imperfect in a great many respects; and with all of its imperfections plainly before me, I throw it upon the great sea of public Opinion, asking the reader to regard it as the production of a boy, and nothing more. I have friends who will give it their support; and if it finds its way into the Southern household, and gladdens any heart, the purpose for which I have written will have been.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rebellion of Hell: A Poem Like the epic poets I have mingled throughout, the probable and improbable, in art. Homer in his Iliad mixes mortals and immortals, that is, men and women, with gods and goddesses; the first being the probable and the last the improbable. When Neptune rides through the sea to the shore for the purpose of inspiring the troops by means of a speech, and when Venus with wounded hand from the battlefield mounts weeping to heaven, we know that, while such things are improbable, they are necessary to carry on the main design of Homer. Virgil is a reflection of the Greek. The Catholic epics, Dante and Tasso, and the Protestant, Milton, have each used different forms of the improbable, all of which are unlike those of the Iliad. Tasso has his spells and enchantments, Dante his shades and angels, Milton his personal god and devil, and each a mixture of all. But modern Christianity requires another form of expression in heroic poetry aside from any of these. As is seen in The Rebellion, both Heaven and hell are considered as present conditions of mind, divided into the Spiritual and carnal, and fought accordingly. That much is strictly metaphysical, thoughts taking human shape and going about as men; and this, according to art, is the improbable. But there is something else.

Book The Historical Literature of the Jack Cade Rebellion

Download or read book The Historical Literature of the Jack Cade Rebellion written by Dr Alexander L Kaufman and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2013-04-28 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Accounts of Jack Cade's 1450 Rebellion-an uprising of some 30,000 middle-class citizens, protesting Henry VI's policies, and resulting in hundreds of deaths as well as the leaders' execution-form the dominant entry in a group of quasi-historical documents referred to as the London chronicles of the Fifteenth Century. However, each chronicle is inherently different and highly subjective. In the first study of the primary documents related to the Cade Rebellion, Alexander L. Kaufman shows that the chroniclers produced multiple representations of the event rather than a single, unified narrative. Aided by contemporary theories of historiography and historical representation, Kaufman scrutinizes the differing representations and distinguishes the writers' objectiveness, their underrated literary skills, and their ideological positions on the rebellion and fifteenth-century politics. He demonstrates how the use of figurative language is related to writing about trauma, and how descriptions of Cade's procession through London are a violent parody of midsummer festivals. In an exploration of authenticity in the descriptions of Cade, Kaufman also examines the characterization and plot devices that push Cade towards the realm of myth, showing that representations of Cade are influenced by popular fifteenth-century stories of Robin Hood.

Book The Problem of Consciousness in Modern Poetry

Download or read book The Problem of Consciousness in Modern Poetry written by Hugh Underhill and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1992-07-31 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modernist aesthetics have been identified with a sense of cultural crisis, defined by its distance from an ideal of unified consciousness. This original study examines the struggle toward that ideal of unitary subjective experience in modern British and Irish poetry from Hardy to Ted Hughes. Hugh Underhill argues that the poetry's emphasis on inner states underrepresents the extent to which the crisis is in fact socio-historically determined.
