Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the life and work of John St. Mawe, a 19th-century poet and writer born in the latter part of the Georgian era in England. During his lifetime, St. Mawe was a respected scholar of the classics and philosophy at Cambridge, and a prominent literary figure in London, publishing works that ranged across poetry, satire, and prose. The author provides the reader with a detailed overview of St. Mawe's upbringing, moving through his time at St. Paul's school, his undergraduate years at Cambridge, and then his move into London society to pursue a literary career. The author highlights the deep religious influences on St. Mawe's writing and the impact his social class had on his worldview. This book will appeal to those interested in the history of English literature, the Georgian era, or the life of an author whose writing explored the boundaries between classicism and the emerging Romanticism of the early 19th century.
