Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from George Eliot's Poetry and Other Studies A Genuine poem is almost certain of recognition, as such, in the long run. If verse contains poetry, that poetry makes itself felt, whatever blemishes the verse, as verse, may have; but if dint of argument alone brings us to acknowledge faultless verse a poem, like Galileo, in the moment of recantation, we shall mutter to ourselves our former and unrecanted conviction. Choose, for example, any Paris to arbitrate between "Aurora Leigh" and "The Spanish Gypsy," and which will win the golden apple? If Paris is at all able to tell black from white, he will at once perceive the "points" of which the "Gypsy" is possessed and of which "Aurora" is destitute. He will discover in the pages of George Eliot superlatives enough. Their color and glow, their vigor, their passion, their nobility of sentiment, their perfection of pathos, the sustained movement of the story, its tragic and worthy denouement, its perfect prosody, its successful unities, and its everywhere-pervading atmosphere of ethical sublimity - all these will compare with "Aurora" to "Aurora's" disadvantage. And yet, and yet - how is it? - "Aurora" gets the apple! Perhaps poor Paris can only stammer forth, in answer to the question, What in "Aurora" more excellent than in the "Gypsy" establishes her claim to the prize?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life and Works of George Eliot, Vol. 17: Poems It must not be supposed that this is by any means a matter of mere fluency, correctness, or ease of numbers. Macaulay wrote verses far su perior in these particulars to many of Mr. Henry Taylor's and many of Wordsworth's. Yet verse was, unequivocally, Macaulay's left-hand; and after adolescence, few people can read his verse for poetry. If I were not unwilling to rouse the prejudice of (i fear!) most of my readers, I should here add Edgar Poe; and, indeed, I really cannot Spare him as an illustration. He must have some queer hybrid place, all to himself (which it would take an essay to define) but though he may be said to have felt verse his right-hand medium of expression, some few of us hesitate to call him a poet. Not to complicate this matter, let us come at once to the point. What is it that in excellent verse differentiates 1 that which is poetry and that which is not? Not mere fluency, but unconscious fluency; in a word, simplicity. Whatever art may do for the poet, he must be a simple musician to begin with.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wit and Wisdom of George Eliot Labour in connection with the volume has been very trifling, and altogether pleasant. What of wealth it contains is drawn entirely from George Eliot's treasury; what of light there is in it streams from her alone as its source. It is scarcely necessary to add, that this little work by no means professes to have drained George Eliot's writings of the riches with which they so abound. Of course, only a sample could be given here for a full supply the reader is referred to the novels and poems themselves, with the assurance (on the part of one who has made them a close study for.

Download or read book Selected Essays Poems and Other Writings written by A. S. Byatt and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2005-04-07 with total page 578 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The works collected in this volume provide an illuminating introduction to George Eliot's incisive views on religion, art and science, and the nature and purpose of fiction. Essays such as 'Evangelical Teaching' show her rejecting her earlier religious beliefs, while 'Woman in France' questions conventional ideas about female virtues and marriage, and 'Notes on Form in Art' sets out theories of idealism and realism that she developed further in Middlemarch and Daniel Deronda. It also includes selections from Eliot's translations of works by Strauss and Feuerbach that challenged many ideas about Christianity; excerpts from her poems; and reviews of writers such as Wollstonecraft, Goethe and Browning. Wonderfully rich in imagery and observations, these pieces reveal the intellectual development of this most challenging and rewarding of writers.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Two Lovers So vast looms George Eliot's fame as a novelist that it will surprise most readers of this exquisite Poem of Life and Love to find her its author The surprise is natural and justified. As if a strong, delightful water that we only knew as a river, writes Matthew Browne in the Contemporary Review, appeared in the character of a fountain; as if one whom we had wondered at as a good walker or inexhaustible pedestrian began to dance; as if Mr. Bright, in the middle of a public meeting, were to oblige the company with a song, no, no, not like that exactly, but like something quite new, is the appearance of George Eliot in the charac ter of a poet.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Poems of George Eliot The Legend of Jubal. When Cain was driven from Jehovah's land He wandered eastward, seeking some far strand Ruled by kind gods who asked no offerings Save pure field-fruits, as aromatic things, To feed the subtler sense of frames divine That lived on fragrance for their food and wine: Wild joyous gods, who winked at faults and folly, And could be pitiful and melancholy. He never had a doubt that such gods were; He looked within, and saw them mirrored there. Some think he came at last to Tartary, And some to Ind; but, howsoe'er it be, His staff he planted where sweet waters ran, And in that home of Cain the Arts began. Man's life was spacious in the early world: It paused, like some slow ship with sail unfurled Waiting in seas by scarce a wavelet curled; Beheld the slow star-paces of the skies, And grew from strength to strength through centuries; Saw infant trees fill out their giant limbs, And heard trees fill out their giant limbs, And heard a thousand times the sweet birds' marriage hymns. In Cain's young city none had heard of death Save him, the founder; and it was his faith That here, away from harsh Jehovah's law, Man was immortal, since no halt or flaw In Cain's own frame betrayed six hundred years, But dark as pines that autumn never sears About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

From the classical insistence upon themes of high and lofty import, we have gone to the opposite extreme. A modern poet, John Masefield, in the prelude to a volume of Salt Water Ballads, defines the province in which his main interest lies with precision, clearness, and poetry withal: Not of the princes and prelates with peri wigged charioteers.

Download or read book Collected Poems Classic Reprint written by John Black and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-19 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Collected Poems This little book represents the poetical achievement of a brave and faultless life; and, confident that such would have been my father's wish had he lived himself to superintend the publication of the volume, I dedicate it to the one who, more than any other, contributed happiness to his life - my mother. My father was born in Bona, Invernessshire, Scotland, on December 25, 1852. He early manifested a taste for literature and was, in youth, a fervent admirer of George Eliot. He was the son of Archibald Black, a sea captain, and Janet Fraser Black. Captain Black, who was well known in marine circles along the Scottish coast, was a brilliant Gaelic scholar and a keen judge of literature. It was from his father, apparently, that the poet inherited his love of books, while his mother was a great and good influence on his life. The poet attended various schools in Scotland. In 1880 he decided to go in for medicine. He went to Edin burgh and studied medicine at the University for four years. The strain, however, reacted on his sight, and he abandoned all hope of becoming a physician when, in1884, he was compelled to put himself under the care of specialists in London. His vision was seriously en dangered for a year. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
