Summary

In 'Lyrics of Earth' by Archibald Lampman, the reader is immersed in a collection of nature poetry that reflects the author's deep appreciation for the beauty and tranquility of the natural world. Lampman's lyrical style and vivid imagery transport the audience to serene landscapes filled with the whispering of the wind and the songs of birds. The poems explore themes of unity with nature, the passage of time, and the fragility of life, showcasing Lampman's keen observation and sensitivity to the environment. Written in the late 19th century during the height of the Romantic movement, 'Lyrics of Earth' stands out as a timeless work that continues to resonate with readers today. Archibald Lampman, a Canadian poet known for his nature poetry, drew inspiration from his surroundings in Ottawa and the wilderness of Canada. His love for nature and keen ability to capture its essence are evident in 'Lyrics of Earth', making him a prominent figure in Canadian literature. I highly recommend 'Lyrics of Earth' to those who appreciate lyrical poetry that celebrates the beauty and harmony of the natural world, as well as those interested in the Romantic literary movement and Canadian literature.

    For our Renaissance Poets we start with the coming to the throne of Henry 8th in 1519.  From then until its end, with the crumbling of the English Republic under Cromwell, in 1659 these poets capture a time when the World as they knew it then underwent tumultuous change.  Within their ranks were Spenser, Donne, Milton, Shakespeare, Sidney, Jonson, Marvell, Drayton.  It is a list rich and sumptuous, long and gloried.  In these volumes we bring all these poets and others together to illustrate this poetical canon.
