Publisher's Synopsis

Thomson And Pollok: Containing The Seasons; And The Course Of Time is a book that features two epic poems by James Thomson and Robert Pollok. The first poem, The Seasons, is a four-part work that describes the beauty and changes of nature throughout the year. It begins with Spring and progresses through Summer, Autumn, and Winter, each section filled with vivid descriptions of the natural world. The second poem, The Course of Time, is a religious epic that tells the story of the fall of humanity and its eventual redemption through the life and sacrifice of Jesus Christ. Written in blank verse, this work is both philosophical and theological, exploring the nature of God, the purpose of human existence, and the concept of free will. Together, these two poems offer a unique perspective on the natural and spiritual worlds, and are considered masterpieces of English literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
