DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from Clydesdale Poems Tm; Author has for many years contributed to local periodicals, especially the Hamilton Advertiser, the following pieces, the writing of which were a solace and comfort to his mind. But for the Muse, existence would have been less enjoyable, some of the pieces being written amidst the distracting cares of a railway life, and many by the midnight lamp. The author never contemplated the publication of his writings in book form till now, in his declining years, he has yielded to the solicitations of his friends to publish a few selections; and, should the small volume be appreciated and patronised by his railway compeers and the lovers of the Muse, he may shortly be induced to give another select volume to the literary world.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Across Europe, and particularly in Great Britain, the Romantic age coincided with a large-scale revival of lost literatures and the first attempts to create a coherent history of Western literature. Calling into question that history, Stuart Curran demonstrates that the Romantic poets, far from being indifferent or hostile to popular forms of literature were actually obsessed with them as repositories of literary conventions and conveyors of implicit ideological value. Whether in their proccupation with fixed forms, which resulted in the incomparable artistry of Romantic odes, or in their rethinking of major genres like the pastoral, the epic, and the romance, the Romantic poets transformed every element they touched to suit their own democratic, secular and skeptical ethos--a world view recognizably modern in its dimensions.
