Book Description
Excerpt from Critical and Miscellaneous Essays, Vol. 4 of 5 The next picture that strikes na is not a family-piece, but a battle-piece: deutsch-wagram, in the hot weather of 1809; whither Varnhagen, with a great change of place and plan, has wended, purposing now to be a soldier, and rise by fighting the tyrannous French. It is a fine picture; with the author's best talent in it. Deutsch-wagram village is filled with soldiers of every uniform and grade; in all manner of movements and employments; arch-duke Karl is heard fantasying for an hour on the pianoforte, before his serious generalissimo duties begin. The Marchfeld has its Mp, the Marchfeld is one great camp of many nations, - Germans, Hungarians, Italians, Mad shars; advanced sentinels walk steady, drill-sergeants bustle, drums beat; Austrian generals gallop, in blue-gray coat and red breeches, combining simplicity with conspicuousness. Faint on our southwestern horizon appears the Stephane thurm (saint-stephen's Steeple) of Vienna; south, over the Danube, are seen endless French hosts defiling towards as, with dust and glitter, along the hill-roads; one may hope.

Tennyson
Author: Rebecca Stott
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317892011
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 232
Book Description
Alternative approaches have emerged which have radically altered our understanding of Tennyson's poetry and his relationship to the Victorian age. This text covers the most significant areas of new work on Tennyson, effectively linking feminist and gender studies with deconstructive, psychoanalytic and linguistic attention. The Introduction discusses ways in which orthodox critical approaches have dominated readings of Tennyson's poetry and provides a critical overview of the radical reappraisal of his work. It also provides a guide to the varied ways in which these new debates have shaped and are shaping themselves, with a final discussion of the future directions which Tennyson criticism is likely to take. The essays chosen cover and reflect a range of modes of critical enquiry compelling in themselves.
