Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The English Works of George Herbert, Vol. 3: Newly Arranged and Annotated and Considered in Relation to His Life; Bemerton Poems With this Group begins the last and briefest period of Herbert´s life, a period remark able for its productivity. It extends from his coming to Bemerton in 1630 to his death in 1633. In it The Country Parson was written and most of the eighty-six poems which here follow. No poem printed in Groups VII-XI is found in the Williams Manuscript, which I have elsewhere shown to have been probably drawn up about 1628. Some of these poems may proceed from the last years of the Crisis, but as they contain no reference to the struggle there described, I have not included them in that Group. Some, especially among those printed under the heading Bemerton Study, were probably written at least in part during the Cam bridge years, and then, either by accident or design, were not copied into the manuscript lent to Ferrar in 1627-9. But substantially the poems of these five Groups are Bemerton poems. Their omission from the Williams Manuscript is prima facie evidence of date. Nearly all of them, outside Group VIII, contain allusions to the priestly character of the writer. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
