Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Arthur Hugh Clough Arthur Hugh Clough was born in Liverpool on January 1, 1819. His father, James Butler Clough, was a cotton merchant, belonging to an old and respectable Welsh family. His mother´s maiden name was Anne Perfect. She was the daughter of a banker living at Pontefract in Yorkshire. There is little or nothing in the poet´s ancestry to point to as indicative of forthcoming genius. From the days of Henry VIII the Cloughs had lived in the country, raised large families, and kept their annals brief. There was, indeed, an eighteenth-century Hugh Clough, friend of Cowper and Fellow of King´s College, who got himself known as a poet; but his example was hardly powerful enough to influence his younger kinsman. Were it not so remote, a reported relationship with John Calvin might furnish more interesting ground for speculation than this poetical connection. The home county of the Cloughs was Denbighshire, in North Wales. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
