Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Voices From the Crowd: And Other Poems The author of the following verses does not intend to enter, in this place, into any arguments, to prove the fitness of political themes for the purposes of the poet. Merely party themes may be unpoetical; but there are politics higher and purer than parties, which he, for one, will never allow to be beyond the scope and sympathies of Poetry. The great cause of Human Progress in intellectual elevation, virtue, and happiness, has required at every period of the world the support of earnest and thinking men. In this day it is more especially the duty of those who claim to be the teachers of the people - and if the man of letters be not a teacher of the people he has mistaken his vocation - to aid, by whatever means may be in their power, the progress of mankind from an imperfect into a higher and better civilisation. With this object, not because he has arbitrarily or for any purposes of popularity thought fit to devote himself to the task, but because he could not choose but utter that which was in him, the following verses were written, and are now published.
