Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a fascinating collection of poems written and published in the 18th century from Thomas Blacklock. Blacklock, who was blind from infancy, nonetheless produced an impressive body of work that explores a wide range of themes, including love, loss, nature, and philosophy. His poems are known for their lyrical beauty, emotional depth, and philosophical insights. Blacklock was a master of language and form, and his poems display a remarkable range of styles and techniques. He was equally adept at writing in the traditional modes of his time, such as the ode and the sonnet, as he was at experimenting with new and innovative forms. His work is a valuable contribution to the canon of 18th-century English literature, and it continues to be read and enjoyed by readers today. 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. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781330820162_0
