Book Description
Famous for his poems ‘The Seasons’ and ‘The Castle of Indolence’, as well as for writing the lyrics of ‘Rule, Britannia’, James Thomson was an eighteenth century Scottish poet and playwright. His best verses foreshadowed some of the leading works of the Romantic Movement, while others gave expression to the achievements of Newtonian science. Thomson also had a leading part in promoting Britain’s burgeoning political power from commercial and maritime expansion. The Delphi Poets Series offers readers the works of literature's finest poets, with superior formatting.
