Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from New Studies in Literature
The studies of the poetry of John Donne and of Mr Meredith attempt to make access to part of the work of two difficult writers, one belonging to the past, one happily to the present, more easy for their readers. They are both writers who in their verse attract and repel, and finally give a courageous explorer an ample reward of impulse, thought, or beauty. The article on Mr Bridges is modest in its aim, seeking only to extend the circle of those who enjoy that fine poet's work, lyrical and dramatic, by presenting an apergu rather than what is now sometimes termed an appreciation. The essay on Coleridge endeavours to bring out the humanity more than the romance of his poetry, and may be viewed as a supplement to the work of other critics.
