At the outset of the First World War, Raleigh changed his career s focus from Romantic era literature and began covering topics relating to the war.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, a unique 1814 collection of poems discovered in the 16th-century diary of Sir Walter Raleigh, provides a glimpse into the mind of one of history's most extraordinary adventurers during his years of imprisonment. Opening with a description of the countryside recreations enjoyed by courtiers and gentlefolk, the book includes Raleigh's eloquent and elegant "Dialogue between God and the Soul", his poem "Of Love and Lovers' Follies", and a series of pastoral dialogues such as "Phillida's Love-call to her Coridon", in which a shepherd and shepherdess exchange witty, sometimes bawdy banter. The collection reveals the range of Raleigh's verse, from themes of love and loss to meditations on mortality and faith. These poems offer a fascinating insight into the inner world of a man who was a poet as well as a statesman, soldier, and explorer.
