Eighteenth Century British Poets, 1st Series: Eighteenth-Century British Poets, First Series (Dictionary of Literary Biography, Band 95) - Hardcover
Inhaltsangabe
The essays in this volume relate the works and lives of 24 poets, born before 1714, who wrote and published in the 18th-century. Not only were quiet landscapes subject of interest for poets of this period, but also the trades and industry. For example, a seashore might prompt a pensive reflection, but it often led to subjects such as shipbuilding, naval prowess, and international commerce. While critics find it difficult to clearly define the centurys poetic style, they are united in their claim that it exudes vitality, daring, and diversity. Readers may be struck by the sheer variety of 18th century styles, forms and themes. Politics, love and religion come to mind in connection with satires, verse epistles, and odes, but a host of other topics and subtopics runs through the periods poetry.
25 entries include: Mary Collier, Stephen Duck, John Gay, Thomas Grey, Samuel Johnson, Thomas Parnell, Alexander Pope, Matthew Prior, Jonathan Swift, James Thomson, Isaac Watts.
