Excerpt from Rossetti His Poetry This is to some extent recognized by writers of histories and text-books of literature, and by editors Of selections from the works Of Our poets for place is always given by them to a. Certain amount Of biographical material. But in the histories and text-books the biography of a given writer stands by itself, and his work has to be sought elsewhere, the student being left to make the connexion for himself while even in our current editions of selections there is little systematic attempt to link biography, step by step, with production.

Book Description
Excerpt from Dante Gabriel Rossetti If we consider the matter well we have no cause for wonder.' The work of the creative artist, the outcome of feeling, and that of the poet which originates in thoughts and ideas, are each not only completely different, but seem to be at variance with one another. The fact that we know very learned men, critical spirits, who were also famous poets does not afiect this contention. All the more important, therefore, must the man appear to us who is the one exception to this rule. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Pages : 46
Book Description
Excerpt from Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Vol. 6: Poet and Painter The following Essay is the work - the most mature literary work - of the late Peter Walker Nicholson, Artist, whose sad and sudden death in the autumn of last year deprived Scottish art of one of its most promising votaries, and cut short a career fraught with sanguine interest to all who watched it Mr. Nicholson took a warm interest in this Series, as is witnessed by his contribution of the happy and graceful design for the cover, and had promised to revise the present Essay with a view to its appearing therein. This, unfortunately, he had not accomplished, and the Essay came into the editor's possession pretty much as it was originally read before the Dialectic Society of the University of Edinburgh. With the exception, then, of the alterations absolutely necessary when an address to an audience is changed to an essay for readers, the original MS. has not been departed from. It will be only just, then, that the reader should bear in mind that the Essay lacks those finishing touches which the maturer judgment and skill of the author would certainly have bestowed upon it.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Complete Poetical Works Dante Gabriel Rossetti Works of Dante Gabriel Rossetti, as of most authors, would probably be to ofier a broad general view of his writ ings, and to analyze with some critical precision his rela tion to other writers, contemporary or otherwise, and the merits and defects of his performances. In this case. As in how few others, one would also have to consider in what degree his mind worked consentaneously or diversely in two several arts, the art of poetry and the art of painting. But the hand of a brother is not the fittest to undertake any work of this scope. My preface will not therefore deal with themes such as these, but will be confined to minor matters, which may nevertheless be relevant also within their limits. And first may come a very brief outline of the few events of an outwardly uneventful life. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from Poems of Christina Rossetti The Poetical Works of Christma Georgina Rossetti (born on 5th December 1830, and deceased on 29th December were first published in a fully collected form at the beginning of 1904, with a considerable amount of matter in the way of Preface, Memoir, Notes, etc. With that form I, as her brother and representative, am very well satisfied. \but I think that, in the interest of her not innumerous readers, and of her own poetical repute, it would be desirable also to give currency to a volume consisting only of her best work so that persons disposed to sympathize with her writings may have in their hands a booklet rather than a book, and may find in the booklet whatever they would most like to estimate her by, and would oftenest recur to. An opportunity for this treatment of her poems offers by including a selection of them in the Golden T reasury series - an Opportunity of which I gladly avail myself, for nothing could suit my views better.
