Synopsis
Excerpt from The Complete Poetical Works of George Darley: Now First Collected, Reprinted From the Rare Original Editions in the Possession of the Darley Family, and Edited With an Introduction Julius Hare, in welcoming the appearance of Landor's Fra Rupert, wrote to the author that it rested with him, Henry Taylor, and George Darley 'to preserve the life of tragedy in England, ' and Forster in commenting on the facts, says, 'Darley's fine dramatic genius well deserved that compliment.' A little later Thomas Carlyle linked Darley's name witht that of yet another immortal. 'There is a trick, ' he notes, 'of sham Elizabeth writing now prevalent that looks plausible, but in most cases means nothing at all. Darley has real lyrical genius; Taylor, wonderful sense, clearness, and weight of purpose; Tennyson a rich and exquisite fancy. All the other men of our tiny generation that I know of are, in poetry, either feeble or fraudulent.' That a writer whose fine dramatic genius was extolled by a critic of Forter's acumen, and whose real lyrical genius won commendation from one who so seldom indulged 'in the noble pleasure of praising' as did Caryle, should to-day be but little known to the average students of English literature, is not strange when we recall the many instances of the rise and fall of literary reputations, and especially those of poets.

The Complete Poetical Works of George Darley (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book gathers together the collected poetic works of George Darley, a distinguished Irish poet of the 19th century. The publication brings together all of the author's major works, such as Errors of Ecstasie, Nepenthe, Sylvia, Thomas à Becket, and Ethelstan. Darley's work was well-received by his contemporaries, with the author forging friendships with the likes of Charles Lamb and Thomas Carlyle who greatly admired his work. Despite this acclaim during his lifetime, Darley's work gradually fell out of fashion and became relatively unknown until the 20th century, with the present work forming the most comprehensive gathering of his poetry available today. This book will be of great interest to those interested in 19th-century poetry and the works of George Darley. 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 # 9781330996867_0
