Pancoast" ; "Not only is poetry one of the noblest and most uplifting of the arts; it is peculiarly fitted, from some aspect at least, to be the art most universally enjoyed. Few can hope to own--even to see--the greatest pictures or statues; their beauty must of necessity be monopolized by a country, or a class, while the elaborate requirements of performance keep much of the greatest music from the multitude; but the beauty of the greatest poems is spread for men's delight almost as liberally as the wonders of dawn and sunset; it is almost as free as sunlight or the stars."--preface ; red cloth with gold lettering and design ; well-worn, reading copy only, with front ep and flyleaf missing ; bookplate at front ; marks at back ep ; detailed notes and explanations at back ; POOR.

In den WarenkorbFine Binding. Zustand: Very Good Indeed. Not Stated (illustrator). A uniformly bound set of the poetical works of Robert Bridges, Percy Bysshe Shelley, and John Keats. Handsomely bound in half contemporary morocco with gilt detailing. Three beautifully and uniformly bound collections of poetry by renowned eighteenth and nineteenth-century poets Percy Bysshe Shelley Robert Bridges, John Keats, and Robert Bridges.This set is comprised of: (I) Poetical Works of Robert Bridges, Excluding the Eight Dramas, published in 1914, (II)The Poetical Works of John Keats, published in 1929 and edited by H. Buxton Forman, and (III)The Complete Poetical Works of Percy Bysshe Shelley, published in 1927 and edited by Thomas Hutchinson.Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792-1822) and John Keats (1795-1821) were both poets during the Romantic period, characterised by sensitivity, connection to nature, and emotion. Shelley was a radical poet and identified heavily with leftist politics and ideals; he was also married to Mary Shelley, known for her gothic literature,Frankensteinin particular. John Keats's poetry evoked heavy themes of nature and he often used natural imagery and extreme emotion in his works. Tragically, both Shelley and Keats died young, Shelley during a shipwreck at age thirty, and Keats of tuberculosis at only age twenty-five.Robert Bridges (1844-1930) was an English poet during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, and his works evoked strong Christian themes and he is responsible for many well-known hymns. He was a Poet Laureate from 1913 to 1930.All three works contain a frontispiece portrait of the author.This set was previously owned by Cyrillus Norwood, Magister Informer, and his bookplate can be found to the front pastedown of each volume. Handsomely bound in contemporary half morocco with cloth covered boards and gilt detailing to the spine. Externally, lovely, with just a slight bit of fading to the spines and joints. Previous owner's bookplate to the front pastedown of each volume. Internally, all volumes firmly bound. Pages bright and clean. Very Good Indeed. book.
