Medieval Poetry

This meditation on artistic creativity was written during the latter months of 1815, during a sojourn on the border of Windsor Forest. Critics have concurred in the opinion that the anonymous hero of the poem is Shelley himself, who feared that he too would become an "inheritor of unfulfilled renown". Today, the poem is considered to be the first major work of Shelley's maturity.

The Caroline era was dominated by the growing religious, political and social conflict between the King and his supporters; the Royalists and it's Puritan opposition; the Roundheads.

La rencontre d'un des plus grands poètes français et d'une grande voix du théâtre contemporain. Avec celles de Baudelaire et de Rimbaud, la figure de Stéphane Mallarmé domine la modernité poétique qui se constitue à la fin du XIXe siècle, et, quoique son œuvre fût rare, adressée à une élite de lecteurs lentement accrue, "il lui avait suffi, dit Valéry, de quelques poèmes pour remettre en question l'objet même de la littérature".

Among his many other attributes, James Elroy Flecker was a skilled linguist and an expert translator of Latin poetry. In 1913, he planned to write a book to be entitled An interpretation in blank verse of Virgil, Aeneid VI, based on the poetic value of the sounds, together with Latin text and ten prefaces. The surviving translation consists of lines 1-19 and 264-547 from book six, which describe Aeneas' encounter with Sibyl and his visit to the underworld.

El padre de La isla del tesoro solo llegó a publicar dos libros de poemas en vida, pero dejó muchos inéditos. Hacia tierras lejanas recoge una selección de los versos más representativos de su poesía sencilla y cercana, en un estilo directo, realista y melancólico.

With the changing needs of today's students in mind, the editors produced a complete prose translation of the four poems - the best known of which is "Sir Gawain and the Green Knight". The near-literal translations are intended to facilitate understanding of the four poems - to lead readers to, rather than away from, the original texts.
