Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Book of Remembrance: Being Lyrical Selections for Everyday in the Year A Calendar differ somewhat from an Anthology, inasmuch as not always the absolute best but the relatively fittest must be chosen. In so far as this selection adheres to any principle, it is that which Bacon recommends for a flower garden: these flowers of verse follow the seasons throughout the whole cycle of the year. Yet not so closely as to shut out many which have nothing to do with Nature or her moods, though an attempt has been made to keep, so to speak, the general tone of each month in selecting those poems which have no particular reference to it. Occasionally, as in March or April, the season of penitence and sorrow may seem to come into collision with the natural season of hope and Spring - a kind of blackthorn Winter, as it were; and sometimes in the Summer there are dark days. The saints days have only now and then been marked, when any specially striking poem fitted them, and in the case of Christmas, when there were only too many, they have been grouped about the Nativity.
