Book Synopsis Hardy's Poetic Vision in The Dynasts by : Susan Dean
Download or read book Hardy's Poetic Vision in The Dynasts written by Susan Dean and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2015-03-08 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Susan Dean uses Hardy's own metaphor—the diorama of a dream—to interpret The Dynasts, his largest and last major composition. She shows that the poem presents a model of the human mind. In that mind is enacted an event (the war with Napoleon) and, simultaneously, the watching of that event. The author provides a reading of the poem in visual-dramatic terms, using the diorama stage as the vehicle for the poet's field of vision. She then defines various visual dimensions, the relationships between them, and the various ways in which they can be seen and understood. Her interpretation draws on Hardy's autobiography and critical essays. Originally published in 1977.

Book Synopsis The Poetical Works of Thomas Hardy, Vol. 2, the Dynasts by : Thomas Hardy
Download or read book The Poetical Works of Thomas Hardy, Vol. 2, the Dynasts written by Thomas Hardy and published by Wildside Press LLC. This book was released on 2011-01 with total page 550 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thomas Hardy (1840-1928) regarded himself primarily as a poet, but was best known for his novels, Tess of the d'Urbervilles and Far from the Madding Crowd, The Dynasts is a dramatic poem about the war with Napoleon, on a similar scale to War and Peace, which is impossible to present on stage due to its elaborate battle-scenes. Hardy regarded The Dynasts as his magnum opus, but it is not critically well-regarded. However, it pioneered techniques that characterize literary Modernism and remains of interest to those studying Hardy's novels.
Download or read book Thomas Hardy written by Tim Armstrong and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-10-08 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Thomas Hardy: Selected Poems Tim Armstrong brings together over 180 poems in the first comprehensively annotated selection of Hardy’s poetry. Unlike most previous selections, this edition preserves the shape of the poet’s career by presenting the poems in the order in which they appeared in the Collected Poems of 1930, rather than re-ordering them thematically. Head notes to each poem give the reader information about its composition, publication, sources and metrical scheme; on-the-page notes list significant variants in Hardy’s manuscripts, point out literary and other allusions, and give explanatory glosses. An appendix contains a selection of relevant passages from Hardy’s notebooks, letters, and autobiography; and a bibliography suggests further reading. Tim Armstrong’s critical Introduction discusses Hardy’s career, his poetics, his use of memory and allusion and examines his position in the context of Victorian debates on aesthetics and belief. The generous selection of poems includes many lesser-known poems as well as those which have received most critical commentary, and the important elegiac sequence ‘Poems of 1912-13’ is included in its entirety.

Download or read book The Dynasts written by Thomas Hardy and published by . This book was released on 2016-12-09 with total page 548 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Dynasts is an English-language drama in verse by Thomas Hardy. Hardy himself described this work as "an epic-drama of the war with Napoleon, in three parts, nineteen acts and one hundred and thirty scenes". Not counting the Forescene and the Afterscene, the exact total number of scenes is 131. The three parts were published in 1904, 1906 and 1908.Because of the ambition and scale of the work, Hardy acknowledged that The Dynasts was not a work that could be conventionally staged in the theatre, and described the work as "the longest English drama in existence". Scholars have noted that Hardy remembered war stories of the veterans of the Napoleonic wars in his youth, and used them as partial inspiration for writing The Dynasts many years later in his own old age. In addition, Hardy was a distant relative of Captain Thomas Hardy, who had served with Admiral Horatio Nelson at Trafalgar. Hardy consulted a number of histories and also visited Waterloo, Belgium, as part of his research.George Orwell wrote that Hardy had "set free his genius" by writing this drama and thought its main appeal was "in the grandiose and rather evil vision of armies marching and counter-marching through the mists, and men dying by hundreds of thousands in the Russian snows, and all for absolutely nothing."
Book Synopsis Hardy's Poetry, 1860-1928 by : D. Taylor
Download or read book Hardy's Poetry, 1860-1928 written by D. Taylor and published by Springer. This book was released on 1989-10-06 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hardy insisted that his poetry steadily grew in skill and maturity. Hardy's Poetry, 1860-1928 traces this development. Gradually Hardy makes his lyric poem the model of a man's life: the way the lyric speaker forms his thoughts within the few moments of a reverie recapitulates the way a man has thought over a lifetime; the smaller interruption of the reverie portends the larger interruptions of life. This lyric model is supported by a distinctive imagery of visual patterns whose implications Hardy explores. These patterns come to symbolise the patterns of life and mind which crystallise over a lifetime and are belatedly revealed.

Book Synopsis Thomas Hardy - The Dynasts - Part Third by : Thomas Hardy
Download or read book Thomas Hardy - The Dynasts - Part Third written by Thomas Hardy and published by . This book was released on 2016-01-27 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many giants of Literature originate from the shores of these emerald isles; Shakespeare, Dickens, Chaucer, The Brontes and Austen to which most people would willingly add the name Thomas Hardy. Far From The Madding Crowd', ' Tess Of The D'Urbervilles', 'The Mayor Of Casterbridge' are but three of his literary masterpieces. In fact, Hardy himself thought he was a poet who wrote novels purely for the money. Indeed his poems were not published until he was in his fifties after his major novels were published and his reputation set. His novels of course continue to influence and mentor our thoughts. Each is a journey through a mind that creates characters, landscapes and narratives that reveal themselves in rich and textured detail as few other writers are able to do.
