The Englishman And Other Poems

Beschreibung

A quiet, irresistible invitation: enter a world where quiet lyricism meets heart's enduring pulse. The Englishman And Other Poems invites you to roam with Ella Wheeler Wilcox through dawn and dusk, tenderness and resolve, in a poetry collection that still glows with late nineteenth¿century clarity and grace. This volume is more than a curated selection; it is a lyrical poetry anthology that threads nature and seasons with love, devotion, optimism, and resilience. Its poems speak directly to modern readers craving unaffected beauty, while offering rich material for english literature students and classics appreciators alike. Public domain poetry never felt so alive, or so transporting, as when Wilcox's lucid cadences illuminate both intimate thought and shared human experience. Historically, Wilcox helped shape American Victorian poetry, and this public¿domain treasure-reconsidered and restored by Alpha Editions-speaks to the enduring value of vintage poetry classics. It is a rare survivor, out of print for decades, now republished to be studied, treasured, and recited for generations. It is not merely a reprint; it is a collector's item and a cultural treasure-a poetry lovers gift edition for readers who seek warm counsel, luminous imagery, and the quiet courage to endure. An ideal choice for casual readers and seasoned collectors alike.

Autor

Eliza Wheeler Wilcox was an American author and artist who lived from November 5, 1850, to October 30, 1919. Her poems include "Solitude" and "Poems of Passion." In "Solitude," she writes, "Laugh, and the world laughs with you; weep, and you weep alone." The Worlds and I, her story, came out in 1918, a year before she died. Ella Wheeler was born in 1850 on a farm in Johnstown, Wisconsin, which is east of Janesville. She was the third child and youngest of four. After losing a lot of money because her father's business plans and speculations didn't work out, the family moved north of Madison. Wilcox's family thought of themselves as smart, and they valued being able to use the English language to its fullest. In her childhood, Wilcox liked to pass the time by reading newspapers and books. These may have had an effect on the writing she did later, especially William Shakespeare, The Arabian Nights, The Diverting History of John Gilpin, and Gulliver's Travels, along with the few other books she had at home.
