Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores Thomas Gray, an 18th-century poet and scholar, through his letters to his close friend William Mason. Their correspondence offers a unique glimpse into the life and mind of Gray, one of the most important poets of the English language. The letters reveal a man of wide-ranging intellectual interests, from literature and art to history and politics. Gray's observations on the literary scene of his day are particularly valuable, as they provide insights into the development of English poetry in the 18th century. He was a master of form and language and a pioneer of pre-Romanticism and the Gothic. His work explores profound themes of mortality, memory, and the sublime, and has enduring importance in English literature.
