The Lake Poets
Lakeland Poets is an absorbing and charming account of the lives and works of Hartley Coleridge, Samuel Coleridge, Thomas de Quincey, Robert Southey, Dorothy Wordsworth and William Wordsworth. Membership of the 'school' of Lake Poets has been extended to include Wordsworth's sister, Dorothy, Coleridge's son, Hartley, and Thomas de Quincey. This is a valuable opportunity for readers to discover more about writers whose work has been sorely neglected and is often difficult to find in print.In this comprehensive and accessible volume each poet's life is detailed and then a selection of their work is presented. The book then goes on to offer details about places associated with that poet, the villages, the stunning scenery of locations which often inspired their work, their homes, where they eventually ended their days and where they now rest.This delightful and beautifully illustrated book is sure to enchant both established lovers of poetry as well as newcomers to the art.
Recollections of the Lakes and the Lake Poets - Coleridge, Wordsworth, and Southey
This book comprises a collection of essays written by Thomas De Quincey. Within them, he furnished some of the earliest, most authentic, and most enlightening accounts of the Lake Poets-a group of poets that included Robert Southey, William Wordsworth, and Samuel Taylor Coleridge. "Recollections of the Lakes and the Lake Poets" is a fascinating read and is highly recommended for those with an interest in the Romantic movement. Contents include: "Early Memorials of Grasmere," "Samuel Taylor Coleridge. Born 1772; Died 1834," "William Wordsworth. Born 7th April 1770; Died 23rd April 1850. Buried in the Green Churchyard of Grasmere, between a Yew-tree of his own planting and an Aged Thorn-tree," and "Robert Southey. Born 12th August 1774; Died 21st March 1843. Buried in the Quiet Churchyard of Crosswaite, near Keswick.." Thomas Penson De Quincey (1785 - 1859) was an English essayist most famous for his book "Confessions of an English Opium-Eater" (1821). Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
