Our staff has thoroughly reviewed every page of all the books in the collection, repairing, or if necessary, rejecting titles that are not of the highest quality.

Autorenporträt

Coventry Patmore (1823-1896) was a distinguished English poet and critic, renowned for his contribution to Victorian literature. Born in Woodford, Essex, Patmore's early literary influence stemmed from his father, Peter George Patmore, himself an author and critic. His early works, such as 'Tamerton Church Tower' and other poems, exhibited a distinct Pre-Raphaelite influence. However, Patmore's most enduring legacy is 'The Angel in the House' which exquisitely depicts idealized domestic happiness and the virtues of a devoted wife, reflecting the Victorian social ethos. His later poetry, including 'The Unknown Eros', showcases a deeper, more mystical approach, and these works earned him a distinguished place among the psychological poets. Aside from poetry, Patmore's steadfast interest in aesthetics and criticism is evident in his prose work, 'Principle in Art, Etc,' which sheds light on his literary theories and beliefs about art's moral and spiritual dimensions. His literary style blends intellectual rigor with emotive expression, often infused with a strong religious sentiment. Although his popularity waned in the 20th century, recent scholarship has reinvigorated interest in Patmore's work, recognizing its nuanced exploration of the intersection between spiritual life and the aesthetics of everyday existence.
