This is an OCR edition with typos. Excerpt from book: ROLAND'S TOWER. A LEGEND OF THE RHINE. Oh, Heaven I the deep fidelity of lore I Where, like a courser starting from the spur, Rushes the deep-blue current of the Rhine, A little island rests; green cypresses Are its chief growth, bending their heavy boughs O'er grey stones marking long-forgotten graves. A convent once stood here; and yet remain Relics of other times, pillars and walls, Worn-away and discoloured, yet so hung With wreaths of ivy that the work of ruin Is scarcely visible. How like this is To the so false exterior of the world Outside all looks so fresh and beautiful; But mildew, rot, and worm, work on beneath, Until the heart is utterly decayed. There is one grave distinguished from the rest, But only by a natural monument: ? f A thousand deep-blue violets have grown Over the sod.?I do love violets: They tell the history of woman's love; They open with the earliest breath of spring; Lead a sweet life of perfume, dew, and light; And, if they perish, perish with a sigh Delicious as that life. On the hot June They shed no perfume: the flowers may remain, But the rich breathing of their leaves is past: ? Like woman, they have lost their loveliest gift, When yielding to the fiery hour of passion: The violet breath of love is purity. - On the shore opposite, a tower stands In ruins, with a mourning-robe of moss Hung on the grey and shattered walls, which fling A shadow on the waters; it comes o'er The waves, all bright with sunshine, like the gloom Adversity throws on the heart's young gladness. I saw the river on a summer eve: The sun was setting over fields of corn, ? 'Twaslike a golden sea;?and on the left Were vineyards, whence the grapes shone forth like gems, Rubies, and lighted amber; and thence spread A wide heath covered

Book excerpt: On 15 October 1838, the body of a thirty-six-year-old woman was found in Cape Coast Castle, West Africa, a bottle of Prussic acid in her hand. She was one of the most famous English poets of her day: Letitia Elizabeth Landon, known by her initials 'L.E.L.' What was she doing in Africa? Was her death an accident, as the inquest claimed? Or had she committed suicide, or even been murdered? To her contemporaries, she was an icon, hailed as the 'female Byron', admired by Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Heinrich Heine, the young Bronte sisters and Edgar Allan Poe. However, she was also a woman with secrets, the mother of three illegitimate children whose existence was subsequently wiped from the record. After her death, she became the subject of a cover-up which is only now unravelling. Too scandalous for her reputation to survive, Letitia Landon was a brilliant woman who made a Faustian pact in a ruthless world. She embodied the post-Byronic era, the 'strange pause' between the Romantics and the Victorians. This new investigation into the mystery of her life, work and death excavates a whole lost literary culture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1820s and 1830s, the gap between Romanticism and Victorianism, continues to prove a difficulty for scholars. This book explores and recovers a neglected culture of poetry in those years, and it demonstrates that culture was a crucial turning point in literary history. It explores a uniquely wide range of poets, including the poetry of the literary annuals, Letitia Landon, Felicia Hemans, Robert Browning, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Thomas Hood and John Clare, placing their work in the light of new research into the conditions of the literary market. In turn, it uses that culture to open up wider theoretical issues relating to literary form, book history, print culture, gender and periodisation. The period’s doubt about poetry’s place in culture and its capacity to last prompted a dazzling range of creative experiments that reimagined the metrical, material and commercial forms of poetry.
