Hard Cover. Condition: Good. No Jacket. Reissue. Reissue. Includes acetate jacket. Chips and tears to jacket. Boards soiled, bookplate on front paste-down endpaper. 1932 Hard Cover. 110 pp. Illustrated by Elinore Blaisdell. This magical and poignant evocation of coming of age in the countryside describes lovers in secluded lanes, cricket and church bells, cherry trees hung with snow and woods full of bluebells. Yet in "A Shropshire Lad" the fields and hills are also places of loss and sorrow, where men die young or are sent far away to fight in foreign wars. Aching with longing for a vanished world, these exquisite verses are a meditation on the fleeting nature of love, youth and happiness. Generations of inhabitants have helped shape the English countryside - but it has profoundly shaped us too. It has provoked a huge variety of responses from artists, writers, musicians and people who live and work on the land - as well as those who are travelling through it.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a new and insightful apparatus criticus of the Culex, a minor Latin poem from the Augustan period, which has been attributed to Virgil for centuries. The author examines the three main manuscripts of the poemâ"the Bembinus, Vaticanus, and Corsinianusâ"to establish the most accurate text possible. The author also provides detailed notes on the various readings of the poem, identifying errors and interpolations.

Condition: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Alfred Edward Housman (1859-1936) detestaba como poeta las leyes de los hombres y las de su Dios, abominaba de las costumbres que impedían a un hombre confesar abiertamente sus preferencias sexuales, e infligía a la sociedad en la que le tocó vivir epigramas que destilaban cinismo y resentimiento. W. H. Auden, reseñando el libro que sobre Housman redactara su hermano, destacó que pocos hombres habían mantenido en su interior, tan claramente apartados, al Jehová y al Satán que todos llevamos dentro. Incluso en las disciplinas literarias que frecuentó, Housman supo distinguir su Jehová de su Satán. Mientras al primero le correspondía el estudio minucioso de los clásicos latinos que anotaba para consumo de oscuros eruditos, el segundo mostraba su desdén por los asuntos intelectuales de la poesía, y abogaba por la sobriedad y la sencillez del pensamiento poético como vehículos imprescindibles para expresarse en verso. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.
