Book Synopsis Modern Irish Poets (Classic Reprint) by : W. J. Paul
Download or read book Modern Irish Poets (Classic Reprint) written by W. J. Paul and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern Irish Poets In submitting this little volume to the public, I have no apology to make for treading an oft-trodden path. No work of the kind on Irish poets, I believe, has hitherto been published. If apology were needed, it would be because of the limited character of the work, for I have not been able, in the space at my disposal, to include all the living Irish poets. It is my opinion that at no period in the history of Ireland have we had so great poets, and so many of them, as at the present day. I have good grounds for saying that the demand for Irish poetry is on the increase. In corroboration of this fact we have only to reflect on the multitude of volumes recently issued by Irish poets, and now out of print. During the last two decades these amount to several hundreds. It is not unnatural, therefore, to expect that readers who have enjoyed so much the works of our native bards and bardesses should wish to know a little about the writers themselves. In these sketches I have endeavoured to place a little information of this kind, in a condensed form, within their reach. In making the selections, I have not been able in every case to give what I believed to be the best poem of each author. Indeed in many cases the length, or other circumstances, rendered it absolutely impossible for me to do so, but I believe there runs throughout every poem in the book - in a greater or less degree - that undefinable, but no less real, something which is never absent from true poetry.

Captain Costigan was of an extreme sensibil ity (which, indeed, is common to his race), and his tears flowed easily when he was in the drink.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Book of Irish Poetry Thomas Moore was more individual as a poet than any of the Young Ireland group yet, whilst he undoubtedly possessed the Irish characteristics of wit and fancy, sentiment and satire, he had nothing of the spirit of the Irish countryside in his composition. Irish was not spoken by his parents or neighbours in Dublin, and when years afterwards he was seeking materials for his History of Ireland in the library of Trinity College, Dublin, he was amazed to find what a great body of Gaelic literature in prose and verse, utterly new to him, lay collected there before his eyes. The classics inspired the anacreontics of Thomas Little his poetical tales, coloured though they were by his Celtic imagination as well as by his West Indian recollections, were entirely derived from Eastern, never from Irish sources. The only purely Irish influence upon his work was that of Irish music, and that influence has made his Irish melodies, in part at any rate, imperish able.

This book was released on 2017-10-30 with total page 626 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treasury of Irish Poetry in the English Tongue On the other hand, the gain to Irishmen of speaking and writing in English is very great. It enables them to put their national aspirations, and the thoughts and passions which are best expressed in poetry, into a language which is rapidly becoming universal. It enables them to tell the world of literature of the ancient myths, legends, and stories of Ireland, and to represent them, in a modern dress, by means of a language which is read and understood by millions of folk in every part of the world. These considerations lie at the root of the matter, and if Irish writers do not deviate into an imita tion of English literature, but cling close to the spirit of their native land, they do well for their country when they use the English tongue.

Book Synopsis A Book of Irish Verse by : W. B. Yeats
Download or read book A Book of Irish Verse written by W. B. Yeats and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-30 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Book of Irish Verse: Selected From Modern Writers They were losing with Gaelic, and these methods, which have shaped the literary thought of Ireland to our time, could not be the same as the methods of a movement which, so far as it is more than an instinctive expression of certain moods of the soul, endeavours to create a reading class among the more leisured classes, which will preoccupy itself with Ireland and the needs of Ireland. The peasants in eastern counties have their Young Ireland poetry, which is always good teaching and sometimes good poetry, and the peasants of the western counties have beautiful poems and stories in Gaelic, while our more leisured classes read little about any country, and nothing about Ireland. We cannot move these classes from an apathy, come from their separation from the land they live in, by writing about politics or about Gaelic, but we may move them by becoming men of letters and expressing primary emotions and truths in ways appropriate to this country. One carries on the traditions of Thomas Davis, towards whom our eyes must always turn, not less than the traditions of good literature, which are the morality of the man of letters, when one is content, like A E. With fewer readers that one may follow a more hidden beauty; or when one. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Selections From Ancient Irish Poetry Romanised Gauls were carrying off the palm of Roman eloquence. By the sixth century the Gaulish language was everywhere extinct, without having left behind a single record of its literature. The same fate was shared by all Celtic nationalities of the Continent, and by those numerous Germanic tribes that were conquered by Rome, or came within the sphere of the later Roman civilisation. In Britain, where the Roman occupation was only temporary, its denationalising effect may be gauged by the numerous Latin loan-words pre served to the present day in the Welsh language, by the partial Romanisation of British personal names, by the early inscribed stones, which, unlike those of Ireland, are all in Latin, and by the late and slow beginnings of a literature in the vernacular.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Poets of Ireland: A Biographical and Bibliographical, Dictionary of Irish, Writers of English Verse The very imperfect work issued by me under the same title twenty years ago, although brought out under many disadvantages, met with such success that from the first I was encouraged to contemplate an improved edition in a form more worthy of its subject. Originally published in parts, and from the author's private residence, never: advertised or pushed in any way, conceived and carried through in London, away from the most fruitful sources of information, nevertheless, not only did the original parts go quickly out of print, but for some years hardly a week passed which did not bring its batch of interesting and suggestive correspondence from well-wishers and subscribers in the United Kingdom, America, and Australia con cerning the book. It was warmly praised by the Press, which recognised its utility to all interested in Irish literary effort, and appreciated what it not unfairly described as the enthusiasm of the author. But, if the work was received far more generously than I had expected, still, I, at least, never failed to observe its many defects and shortcomings. The information was too loosely strung together, it was often too vague and general, and occasionally the bibliographies lacked directness and method. I realised the want of a book of the kind on a more comprehensive plan. No sooner was the original publication issued than I commenced to glean additional information from all available sources, and I continued that unwearying research which 'had become such a hobby with me that no occasion for increasing my rapidly accumulating material was allowed to slip. From friendly correspondents in three Continents I gained many valuable items of information. To such an extent did the work grow, that the edition which I am now, by the enterprise of 3.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Poets and Dreamers: Studies and Translations From the Irish Raftery hadn't a stim of sight; and he travelled the whole nation; and he was the best poet that ever was, and the best fiddler. It was always at my father's house, opposite the big tree, that he used to stop when he was in Kilchreest. I often saw him; but I didn't take much notice of him then, being a child; it was after that I used to hear so much about him. Though he was blind, he could serve himself with his knife and fork as well as any man with his sight. I remember the way he used to cut the meat - across, like this. Callinan was nothing to him.' The other old woman, who was from Craughwell, said: Callinan was a great deal better than him. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
