Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Phillida and Coridon, and Other Pastorals' is an evocative collection of lyrical poetry by Nicholas Breton, a prominent voice of the Elizabethan era. This selection showcases the beauty and simplicity of the pastoral tradition, capturing the idealized life of shepherds and the natural world with melodic precision and charm. Central to the work is the titular poem, 'Phillida and Coridon,' a masterpiece of Renaissance song known for its rhythmic grace and lighthearted depiction of rural romance.Breton's verses invite readers into a tranquil landscape where the complexities of courtly life are replaced by the honesty of the countryside. Through themes of unrequited love, joyful celebrations, and the changing seasons, these poems reflect the artistic sensibilities of the late 16th and early 17th centuries. This collection serves as a significant example of English pastoral literature, illustrating Breton's talent for blending folk-like simplicity with sophisticated poetic structure. It remains a vital work for those interested in the history of British poetry and the development of the pastoral genre during the English Renaissance.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
