A wonderful collection of poems by famous British author and poet Thomas Hardy. The poems include: `Wessex Poems' (1898), `Poems of the Past and Present' (1902), `Time's Laughingstocks' (1909), `Satires and Circumstance' (1914), `Moments of Vision' (1917), `Late Lyrics and Earlier' (1922), `Human Shows' (1925) and `Winter Words' (1928). Thomas Hardy (1840 ¿ 1928) was an English novelist and poet. He was heavily influenced by Romanticism, particularly the work of William Wordsworth. He deeply disliked much of Victorian society, but in his writing concentrated on the idea of a decaying rural society. Although most famous for his novels, Hardy always considered himself a poet first and foremost. Other notable works by this author include: ¿Far from the Madding Crowd¿ (1874), ¿The Return of the Native¿ (1878), and ¿The Mayor of Casterbridge¿ (1886). Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in a modern, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork.
Autorenporträt
Thomas Tough (June 2, 1840-January 11, 1928) was born in England. He was a British author and poet. He was the son of a country carpenter and builder. He practiced architecture before starting with poetry and books. Several of his books, starting with his second, Under the Greenwood Tree (1872), are set in the imaginary county of Wessex. Far from the Madding Crowd (1874), his first famous work was followed by The Return of the Native (1878), The Mayor of Casterbridge (1886), Tess of the D'Urbervilles (1891), and Jude the Obscure (1895). Hardy's works were progressively at odds with Victorian morality, and public anger at Jude so disgusted him that he wrote no more books. He got back to poetry with Wessex poems (1898), Poems of the Past and the Present (1901), and The Dynasts (1910), a large poetic drama of the Napoleonic Wars.
