Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Parodies Regained: Evoe At the end of last year a well-known Member of Parliament criticized in the House of Commons the work of the present Poet Laureate, and proposed the selection of a national bard whose mind should be more attuned to the soul of the British nation. Either because an urgent demand for economy arose about the same time, or for some other reason, no Royal Commission was appointed as a result of this agitation, and no Cabinet Minister received a Portfolio of Prosody. The public, however, was not wholly satisfied. "What kind of stuff," they began to ask one another, "do these poet fellows write?" I have done my best to answer that question here, even to the extent of introducing one or two singers from outside the British Isles.
