Synopsis
Excerpt from Joseph and His Brethren: A Dramatic Poem
IT is said that all books find their level sooner or later; and indeed one would not willingly believe that anything of the highest worth can in the end be rejected by the judgment of men. Yet some great works there undoubtedly are which never seem likely to win their due place in general repute. How it is that they miss of fame it were hard to say; but some cross chance has nevertheless thrown them out of the straight way to it which we should have thought natural for them to take, and triumph and time, that sets to right so much, forgets to settle their account with the celebrities and publicities of their day. Some books, like some men, seem to have come into the world with the brand of mischance on them for birthmark. Otherwise it would hardly be needful to refer any reader, at the distance of more than half a century, to an early sonnet of Keats for introduction to the name of Mr. Wells. This' sonnet, written be fore the author's friend had himself come forward as a poet, remains almost the only indication extant.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is an early nineteenth-century prose and poetry work by Wells. The author's primary narrative technique is the use of blank verse, prose dialogue, and choral interludes to create a unique literary experience for the reader. The complex form of this work creates a textured experience of Wells' themes of interfamily conflict, generational gaps, and sibling rivalry set against the backdrop of a time of great social and political change in England. This book is a significant contribution to the literary movements that preceded Romanticism. The author, who is largely forgotten today, wrote the work during a period of great literary upheaval where older forms and styles were being challenged. This book is a valuable text for scholars and fans of literary history, as it is part of a vital transitional era. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
