NOTES NOTES ON THE TRAVELER The first draft of The Traveler was some lines which Goldsmith wrote in 1755, when in Switzerland, and enclosed in a letter to his brother Henry. We do not know which lines these were, but they were probably the introductory ones about his home and his brother, and possibly the ones describing Switzerland. Some years later, this fragment, with some changes and additions, was shown to Dr. Johnson, who commended it and urged Goldsmith to complete the poem. Dr. Johnson suggested for it the title of The Philosophic Wanderer, which Goldsmith had the good taste to reject, though he accepted some of his friend's rather stately lines. You will find, on page seventeen of the Introduction, an account of the writing and publication of The Traveler. It came out in a quarto volume, December 19, 1764, dated 1765, and was the first of Goldsmith's works which bore his name on the title page. Like all his other poems, it was written slowly and polished with scrupulous care. The early editions of The Traveler, which he corrected, are full of improvements, -- changed words, couplets, whole passages. The poem is written in the 'heroic couplet, ' favored by Dryden, Pope, Johnson, and other poets of the classical schools. By examining the poem, you will see that each line consists of ten syllables, an unaccented one being regularly followed by an accented one; the lines rhyme in couplets.

Goldsmith, who marks the transition between classicism and romanticism in English poetry, gave the classic meter a natural beauty, a grace and charm which it had never had before. According to the customs of the time, the poem has a didactic theme, -- the opinion that political institutions..

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The English countryside has inspired some of the most exquisite and well-loved poetry ever composed in the language. This selection of verse includes, among others, Thomas Gray's reflective and moving meditation on mortality, 'Elegy Written in a Country Church Yard', the soaring beauty of Wordsworth's lines on Tintern Abbey and Keats's ode to Autumn, the deceptively simple words of Emily Brontë and the personal and evocative verse of Thomas Hardy, bringing together the greatest riches of English poetry. Generations of inhabitants have helped shape the English countryside - but it has profoundly shaped us too.It has provoked a huge variety of responses from artists, writers, musicians and people who live and work on the land - as well as those who are travelling through it.English Journeys celebrates this long tradition with a series of twenty books on all aspects of the countryside, from stargazey pie and country churches, to man's relationship with nature and songs celebrating the patterns of the countryside (as well as ghosts and love-struck soldiers).
