Thomas Hardy
Author: Tim ArmstrongPublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317863208
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 425
Book Description
In Thomas Hardy: Selected Poems Tim Armstrong brings together over 180 poems in the first comprehensively annotated selection of Hardy’s poetry. Unlike most previous selections, this edition preserves the shape of the poet’s career by presenting the poems in the order in which they appeared in the Collected Poems of 1930, rather than re-ordering them thematically. Head notes to each poem give the reader information about its composition, publication, sources and metrical scheme; on-the-page notes list significant variants in Hardy’s manuscripts, point out literary and other allusions, and give explanatory glosses. An appendix contains a selection of relevant passages from Hardy’s notebooks, letters, and autobiography; and a bibliography suggests further reading. Tim Armstrong’s critical Introduction discusses Hardy’s career, his poetics, his use of memory and allusion and examines his position in the context of Victorian debates on aesthetics and belief. The generous selection of poems includes many lesser-known poems as well as those which have received most critical commentary, and the important elegiac sequence ‘Poems of 1912-13’ is included in its entirety.

Thomas Hardy's Major Novels
Author: Julie SherrickPublisher:
ISBN:
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 232
Book Description
Thomas Hardy's Major Novels provides a needed update of contemporary criticism on the important English novelist. Unlike existing bibliographies, this volume specifically addresses the needs of both college teachers and scholars, as well as those teachers without an intense background in the work of Thomas Hardy. The bibliography furnishes a lengthy background into the time period and literary context of each novel. Referenced works are representative of current critical work that exists from a number of different schools of thought and interpretation. The annotated bibliography provides complete, informative, yet concise summaries, as well as evaluations of the value of the source. The bulk of the bibliography is divided into six sections, each focused on secondary sources pertaining to specific Thomas Hardy novels including: Far From the Madding Crowd, The Return of the Native, The Mayor of Casterbridge, The Woodlanders, Tess of the D'Urbervilles, and Jude the Obscure. The sources are grouped into subsections organized around the thrust of the Hardy study, whether it relates to the circumstances of composition, comparative work, discussion relating to the nature of the novel, salient features of the novel, or studies of character analysis.
Thomas Hardy’s ‘Facts’ Notebook
Author: William GreensladePublisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1351879294
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 402
Book Description
Within weeks of Thomas Hardy’s return to his native Dorchester in June 1883, he began to compile his ’Facts’ notebook, which he kept up throughout the years when he was writing some of his major work - The Mayor of Casterbridge, The Woodlanders, Tess of the d’Urbervilles and Jude the Obscure. From his intensive study of the Dorset County Chronicle for 1826-1830, he noted and summarised into 'Facts' (with the help of his first wife, Emma) hundreds of reports, many of them suggestive 'satires of circumstance', for possible use in his fiction and poems. Along with extensive reading in memoirs and local histories, this immersion in the files of the old newspaper involved him in a wider experience - the recovery and recognition of the unstable culture of the local past in the post-Napoleonic war years before his birth in 1840, and before the impact of the modernising of the Victorian era. 'Facts' is thus a unique document amongst Hardy's private writings and is here for the first time edited, the text transcribed in 'typographical facsimile' form, together with substantial annotation of the entries and critical and textual introductions.
