Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Brief Sketch of the Life and Writings Sidney Lanier Mr. President and Gentlemen of the Society: When the Centennial Commission of the United States in 1876 sought for a poet who could best express the national feeling in its opening cantata, their choice fell upon Sidney Lanier. When Asger Hamerik, the conductor of the Peabody Orchestra, the aim of which is to teach music in its highest forms, desired to employ the best artist on the flute attainable, he turned to Sidney Lanier. When the Johns Hopkins University, which, from enormous resources, had obtained its chief mathematician in Sylvester, its chief Greek scholar in Gildersleeve, its electrician in Roland, its chief chemist in Remsen, its Romance lecturer in Eliot, and the other members of its Faculty from the best scholars known to the world, wished an equally gifted and capable lecturer upon English prose and poetry, it was to Lanier that it looked as the man for the task. Such was the verdict on him, while living, by competent judges of his powers as poet, musician, and critic. Upon a list of our purchases a few months ago, you will find his complete poems.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sidney Lanier It cannot be said, however, that Lanier's rank as a poet even in American, to say nothing of English literature is yet fixed. He is a very uneven writer, and his defects are serious. Some of the best American critics men who have a right to speak with authority shake their heads in disapproval at what they call the Lanier cult. Abroad he has had no vogue, as have Emerson and Poe and Walt Whitman. The enthusiastic praise of the Spectator has been more than bal anced by the indifierence of some English critics and the sarcasm of others. Mme. Blanc's article in the Revue des Deux Mondes, setting forth the charm of his personality and the excellence of his poetry, met with little response in France. In View of this divergence of Opinion among critics, it may be doubted if the time has yet come for anything approaching a final valuation of Lanier's work. In the later pages of this book an attempt will be made to give a reasonably balanced and critical study of his actual achieve ment in poetry and criticism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Poems of Sidney Lanier Because I believe that Sidney Lanier was much more than a clever artisan in rhyme and metre; because he will, I think, take his final rank with the first princes of American song, I am glad to provide this slight memorial. There is sufficient material in his letters for an extremely interesting biography, which could be properly prepared only by his wife. These pages can give but a sketch of his life and work. Sidney Lanier was born at Macon, Ga., on the third of February, 1842. His earliest known ancestor of the name was Jerome Lanier, a Huguenot refugee, who was attached to the court of Queen Elizabeth, very likely as a musical composer; and whose son, Nicholas, was in high favor with James I. and Charles I., as director of music, painter, and political envoy; and whose grandson, Nicholas, held a similar position in the court of Charles II. A portrait of the elder Nicholas Lanier, by his friend Van Dyck, was sold, with other pictures belonging to Charles I., after his execution.

There is no grade line and no age line in the writings of great men. The work of Lanier, like that of Hawthorne, Longfellow, Lowell, and Cable, is crowned permanent by the best critics, and there is no longer any possibility of excluding him from educational lines or of reserving him for future schools to discover.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters of Sidney Lanier: Selections From His Correspondence, 1866-1881 Oner and confined at Point Lookout. In February, 1865, he was exchanged, and, travelling most of the dis tance on foot, made his way back to Macon, where he broke down with the first serious premonitions of con sumption. The exposures in the army, the rigor of his imprisonment, -he had begun the winter months at Point Lookout with only summer clothes to wear, had weakened his constitution, and a tendency to consump tion, inherited from his mother, warned him thus early that to live he must struggle. Upon his recovery he was employed as a clerk at Montgomery, Ala., and in 1867 he published, 'in New York, Tiger Lilies, a novel into which he wove some of his war experiences, and which better deserves to be unearthed than do many of the firstfruits of genius. That same year he married Miss Mary Day, of Macon. Thenceforth, through all his wanderings he was blessed with the companionship of one who firmly believed in his powers, and who cheered alike his years of dis appointment and of illness. Doubly precarious was his existence: his ill-health prevented him from pursuing any occupation long, and his straitened means forced him to accept uncongenial employments, if only he might thereby earn bread. We find him teaching school at Prattville, Ala., and then for several years, at his father's urgent request, practising law at Macon, till in 1872 the condition of his lungs drove him to San Antonio, Texas, in search of a climate in which he might safely live. In the following spring, however, he returned to Georgia, and in December, 1873, he went to Baltimore, where he was engaged to play the first flute in the Peabody Orchestra.

They come so seldom and in such ever new and changed garb that oftentimes only the saving remnant recognizes their existence. Sometimes, too, the poet's life is strangely at variance with his mes sage, and the world satisfies its dull self-complacency by simply telling the truth about him.
