Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memoirs and Correspondence of Coventry Patmore, Vol. 2 "Who is this Fair Whom each hath seen? What if this Lady be thy Soul, and He Who claims to enjoy her sacred beauty be Not thou, but God?" It has very rarely happened that a poet has been able or willing fully to reveal the secrets of his inner life, the sources of the inspiration of his work: for the analytic faculty is seldom found to be compatible with the synthetic, and, even where such union might have been possible, there has usually been some reluctance to remove the veil from the innermost shrine. Poetical expression, where "more is meant than meets the ear," affords but a partial manifestation of the ideas and convictions by which it is inspired, and generally leaves much to conjecture. Patmore´s poetry gives an unusual amount of insight into his philosophical and religious ideals; and, even had he limited his self-revelation to verse, there would, as it seems to me, be little of importance left to indicate or explain. But his prose writings, especially those of later date - the "Religio Poetæ" and "Rod, Root and Flower" - seem so to complete the manifestation of the poet´s mind as to make any attempt at explanation almost superfluous.
