Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book recollects and reflects upon the many years literary critic and professor A. T. Quiller-Couch has spent reading, critiquing, and studying poetry. In a series of rich, discursive essays, the author explores the nature and purpose of poetry and its place in the modern world. Quiller-Couch discusses the distinction between poetry and other forms of writing, such as science, and examines the role of imagination, emotion, and truth in poetic expression. He also considers the social and political dimensions of poetry, and its ability to both reflect and shape the human experience. Through his insightful and wide-ranging analysis, Quiller-Couch offers a compelling argument for the enduring relevance and importance of poetry in our lives.
