Autorenporträt
Edward Woodley Bowling (1810-1876) remains a quaint figure in the annals of English literature, fondly remembered for his singular work 'Sagittulae, Random Verses' published in 1873. Uniquely embodying the Victorian crispness and a penchant for moral and reflective poetry, Bowling was a clergyman by profession, which infused his literary output with a didactic and meditative undertone, resonant with the broader moral ethos of his era. Though 'Sagittulae' has not thrust him into the limelight alongside the period's literary giants, it has established a niche appreciation among aficionados of the genre for its heartfelt simplicity and linguistic elegance. His style, marked by touches of romanticism and reverberating with the classical strains of pastoral poetry, speaks to a readership seeking solace in the tranquil beauty of verse. In 'Sagittulae', Bowling's oeuvre encapsulates a bygone era's poetic musings, marked by erudition and a scholarly grasp of the contours of the English language, which he wielded with the grace of a seasoned aesthete. This work serves as a testament to his dedication to the written word and an insight into the mid-Victorian literary landscape, making Edward Woodley Bowling a noteworthy, if not widely acclaimed, contributor to English letters.
