Sinopsis

In "Trees, and Other Poems," Joyce Kilmer presents a collection that weaves together themes of nature, spirituality, and human emotion with lyrical elegance. Kilmer's verse is characterized by its clarity and musicality, often employing traditional forms that echo the pastoral and romantic traditions of poetry. His most famous poem, "Trees," embodies a deep reverence for nature, emphasizing the beauty and majesty of the natural world as an extension of divine creation. The work stands out as a quintessential example of early 20th-century American poetry, reflecting the cultural shifts of its time while remaining rooted in the timeless appreciation for nature's splendor. Joyce Kilmer, an accomplished poet and journalist, drew on his rich experiences as a Catholic and a New Jersey native, both of which informed his worldview. His engagement with nature is evident throughout his work, shaped by his personal belief in the intrinsic value of the natural landscape. Kilmer's untimely death in World War I lent a poignant resonance to his poems, infusing them with a sense of urgency and a call to cherish beauty amidst the chaos of human existence. Readers who seek a meditative exploration of the natural world and a celebration of life itself will find in Kilmer's "Trees, and Other Poems" an enduring classic that speaks to the heart of humanity. This collection invites reflection on our relationship with nature, urging us to recognize beauty in simplicity and the sacredness of all living things.

    The Tragedy of Julius Caesar is a history play and tragedy by William Shakespeare first performed in 1599. It is one of several plays written by Shakespeare based on true events from Roman history, such as Coriolanus and Antony and Cleopatra.
    Set in Rome in 44 BC, the play depicts the moral dilemma of Brutus as he joins a conspiracy led by Cassius to murder Julius Caesar to prevent him from becoming dictator of Rome. Following Caesar's death, Rome is thrust into a period of civil war, and the republic the conspirators sought to preserve is lost forever.
    Although the play is named Julius Caesar, Brutus speaks more than four times as many lines as the title character; and the central psychological drama of the play focuses on Brutus' struggle between the conflicting demands of honour, patriotism, and friendship. 
    Among the most significant works William Shakespeare: Hamlet, Othello, King Lear, Macbeth, Orpheus, Romeo and Juliet, Julius Caesar, Troilus and Cressida, The Tempest, Venus and Adonis, Antony and Cleopatra, Measure for Measure, The Winter's Tale and many more.

    Morell is a Christian Socialist, popular in the Church of England, but Candida is responsible for much of his success. Candida returns home briefly from a trip to London with Eugene Marchbanks, a young poet who wants to rescue her from what he presumes to be her dull family life. Marchbanks is in love with Candida and believes she deserves something more than just complacency from her husband. He considers her divine, and his love eternal. In his view, it is quite improper and humiliating for Candida to have to attend to petty household chores. Morell believes Candida needs his care and protection, but the truth is quite the contrary. Ultimately, Candida must choose between the two gentlemen. She reasserts her preference for the "weaker of the two" who, after a momentary uncertainty, turns out to be her husband Morell. Note that the pronunciation of Candida is how Shaw himself preferred it be pronounced.

    IMPLIED SECRETS: Poetry slides an incisor behind our addiction to living, rips essence from its bones and grinds us chunk to paste, half sustenance, the rest, waste. Verses are beds for the senseless masturbated to perfect sense. Sentiments and sympathies in micro-doses of self-psychoanalytics affixed to symptoms, ticks, and epiphanies. Come inside, we have odes to sing. *** These verses twist trauma and grief into self-loving peace, a therapy cushion of words and doodle artwork. Come feel the dark so we can see the light again.
