Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Selections in Prose and Verse: Edited With Introduction and Notes The essays in this volume are reprinted from Leigh Hunt´s selection from his writings in The Indicator, The Companion, and The Seer, published by Moxon in 1841. They may therefore be said to appear with the authority of their authors critical judgment. Leigh Hunt has had few equals as a maker of an anthology, and his skill did not desert him when he was dealing with his own work. One of his editors and friends tells us that "the great ambition of Leigh Hunt was to achieve a name as a poet." That ambition has not been realised. In comparison with his prose writings his poetry is almost negligible. In view of its authors ambition the selection from his poetry given here must appear inadequate. But from other points of view it may seem to be more generous than critical. Some of the verses I have admitted for other reasons than their poetical merit. The Feast of the Poets, for example, is well worth its room as an interesting chapter of literary history done into rhyme, and by reason of its occasional critical felicity.
