Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from The Life of the Spirit in the Modern English Poets A Great poetry has accompanied our century of swift development in thought and deed. Only within the last decade has it sunk into silence, with the death of Tennyson and Browning. Swinburne and Morris, our only surviving poets, have nothing new to say; no younger men are rising to take the vacant places. So far as we can tell, the story of our modern English song is ended. That the hush which has fallen upon us precedes a new creation, who can doubt? Our poetry has known a full development; but our prose increases every year in volume and power, and its story is just begun. It is feeling its way in the dubious region of social experiment and applied democracy, and the way is hard to find. Modern poetry, on the other hand, has been occupied rather with spiritual life than social problem; and the whole spiritual epoch which lies behind us finds, in its progress towards peace, full record in our verse. The poetry of the revolution beheld ideals; Victorian poetry has tested them. We have now both vision and knowledge.
