Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Sovereign in the Street: And Other Poems The work of Mr. Christian Binkley, announced in the first number of the Flame Series, does not appear herein. Mr. Binkley has received some of the highest praise accorded a California poet, and we hope to publish some of his literature anon. From a critical view, the poems in this volume may seem an attempt to exalt, rather than a manner of receiving exaltation from, the subject matters thereof. It may be declared that only beautiful objects are the resources of poetry. I do not deny that poetry is the expression of the beautiful, but deny that it is always such. Objects of less heavenliness have also their places in art. Poetry can contemplate physical misery and lose none of its own elemental grandeur, if it is true and intrinsically divine. It may be said that, benevolence is one thing and beauty another. Yet benevolence is the beauty of the soul. There, are some to whom an oil-painting of Christ in a gorgeous throne room, curing a Syrian prince of a languid feeling, would contain more essential beauty than would a representation of Him at the Mount of Olives, protecting the woman who had sinned.
