Goldsmith's The Traveler and The Deserted Village, and Gray's Elegy in a Country Churchyard is a book that contains two famous poems by two renowned poets of the 18th century. The first poem, The Traveler, is a philosophical and reflective work that explores the themes of human nature, happiness, and the search for meaning in life. It follows the journey of a traveler who travels to different parts of the world in search of happiness and contentment but ultimately realizes that true happiness lies within oneself.The second poem, The Deserted Village, is a poignant and nostalgic work that portrays the decline of rural life in England during the 18th century. It describes the once-thriving village of Auburn, which has now become deserted and abandoned due to the encroachment of modernity and urbanization. The poem laments the loss of a simpler way of life and the destruction of the natural beauty of the countryside.In addition to these two poems, the book also includes Gray's Elegy in a Country Churchyard, which is considered one of the greatest poems in the English language. It is a meditation on mortality and the transience of life, set in a rural churchyard where the poet contemplates the lives and deaths of the common people buried there.Overall, Goldsmith's The Traveler and The Deserted Village, and Gray's Elegy in a Country Churchyard is a collection of three timeless poems that continue to resonate with readers today. They offer profound insights into the human condition, the meaning of life, and the beauty and fragility of the natural world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
