Synopsis

Unlock the fierce imagination behind a towering English poet.

This concise portrait examines Algernon Charles Swinburne’s scholarship, passion, and dramatic vision through the lens of a dedicated, lifelong admirer.

In clear, accessible prose, the book traces Swinburne’s wide literary range—from classical languages and Greek drama to Elizabethan forms and modern verse. It explains how his deep study shaped both his poetry and his critical prose, and how his love of liberty, fame, and heroic figures informed his most ambitious work.

• Discover how Swinburne blended scholarship with creative daring.
• See how his drama mirrors past traditions while pursuing a powerful, personal voice.
• Learn about the poets who shaped him—Landor, Hugo, Mazzini—and why they mattered.
• Explore the themes that recur across his poetry and criticism: liberty, fate, nature, love, and fame.

Ideal for readers of literary biography and fans of Swinburne’s era, this edition offers a focused, thoughtful profile of a poet who charted his own timeless path through imagination and intellect.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
