Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book of English literature explores the significance of English literature, rambling through the lives, works, and haunts of famous English authors such as Shakespeare, Keats, Shelley, Milton, Tennyson, Byron, Spenser, Edmund Kean, and many more. The author roams through the storied places of England, contemplating the mortality of a thousand years, and how even the relics of the past are passing away, and how cities, unlike human creatures, may grow to be so old that at last they will become new. Nevertheless, the book highlights how much remains of the London of which we have read and dreamed, from the churches to the abodes of poets, playwrights, and actors. The book offers a sweeping view of literary landmarks and their commemorative markers, showing how history connects with the present, and demonstrating how the power of contrast brings startling impressions of the permanence of artistic genius and the brevity of human life. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330840658_0
