‎THE LIFE OF RICHARD STEELE IN TWO VOLUMES COMPLETE‎

‎DISPONIBILITÀ GARANTITA AL 99%; SPEDIZIONE ENTRO 12 ORE DALL'ORDINE. VOLUMI MAI SFOGLIATI, COME NUOVI, LIEVI SEGNI DEL TEMPO. SENZA SOVRACCOPERTA; COPERTINE SCOLORITE. RARI. VOLUMES NEVER BROWSE, LIKE NEW, SLIGHT SIGNS OF THE TIME. WITHOUT OVERCOVER; DISCOLORED COVERS. RARE. Authoritative, documented biography of the noted English literary figure. Includes extensive illustrations, genealogical tables, Steels's letters. To make a pair of jolly fellows, The son and father, join to tell us How sons may safely disobey, and fathers never Should say nay By which wise conduct they grow friends at last - and so the story ends. But now the senate must feel his eloquence and fire, though this might be disturbed by a petition. It is not strictly true that Steele was the inventor of the English essai - there were essayists before the 18th century, notably Cowley and Temple; but he was the first to use them for periodical purposes, and he and Addison together developed a distinct species, to which they gave a permanent character, and in which they had many imitators. As a humbler motive for this fortunate venture Steele had the pinch of impecuniosity, due rather to excess of expenditure than to smallness of income. He had £300 a year from his gazetteership (paying a tax of £45), £100 as gentleman waiter to Prince George, £850 from the Barbadoes estates of his first wife, a widow named Margaret Stretch, and some fortune by his second wife - Mrs Mary Scurlock, the "dear Prue" of his charming letters. But Steele lived in considerable state after his second marriage, and before he started the Tatler was reduced to the necessity of borrowing. The assumed name of the editor was Isaac Bickerstaff, but Addison discovered the real author in the sixth number, and began to contribute in the eighteenth. It is only fair to Steele to state that the success of the Tatler was established before Addison joined him, and that Addison contributed to only forty-two of the two hundred and seventy-one numbers that had appeared when the paper was stopped, obscurely, in January 1711. Some papers satirizing Harley appeared in the Tatler, and Steele lost or resigned the post of gazetteer. It is possible that this political recklessness may have had something to do with the sudden end of the venture. Autorevole e documentata biografia del noto letterato inglese. Include ampie illustrazioni, tabelle genealogiche, lettere di Steels. Richard Steele è stato uno scrittore, saggista, politico e drammaturgo britannico. Studiò a Oxford; intrapresa la carriera militare, entrò nelle Horse Guards, quindi fu nominato capitano delle Life Guards nel 1700. Designato gazzettiere dal ministro Harvey, fu poi due volte deputato al Parlamento. La sua prima opera, The Christian Hero (L'eroe cristiano, del 1701), è un'esaltazione dell'ideale puritano della borghesia in ascesa; lo stesso tono moralistico-didattico è al fondo delle sue opere di teatro, per il quale creò la commedia sentimentale: una, soprattutto, riscosse notevole successo, The Conscious Lovers (Gli amanti coscienziosi, del 1722). L'importanza di Steele nella storia letteraria inglese è soprattutto quella di fine saggista e di precursore del giornalismo. Nel 1709, infatti, sotto lo pseudonimo di Isaac Bickerstaff, fondava il giornale The Tatler (il chiacchierone), cui si associò l'amico Joseph Addison, dove pubblicava saggi a sfondo morale, dissertazioni sul costume, commenti - pieni di equilibrato buonsenso e di fine umorismo - su avvenimenti e personaggi. Chiuso The Tatler nel 1711, Steele divenne collaboratore di Addison al giornale da lui fondato, The Spectator (1711-1712). Dopo l'esperienza dello Spectator, i due fondarono in collaborazione The Guardian, The Englishman ed altri periodici, che tuttavia ebbero breve durata.

‎TENNYSONIAN LOVE. THE STRANGE DIAGONAL‎

‎DISPONIBILITÀ GARANTITA AL 99%; SPEDIZIONE ENTRO 12 ORE DALL'ORDINE. FONDO DI MAGAZZINO PARI AL NUOVO. LIEVI SEGNI DEL TEMPO. LIEVE USURA DELLA SOVRACCOPERTA. In the century or so since Alfred Tennyson's poetry reached the height of its popularity and critical acclaim, the pendulum of criticism has swung wide in opposite directions. From the earlier idolatry to the later ridicule, that pendulum has now settled into a position of qualified and selective praise from which a more thoughtful consideration of the poet is possible. Consequently, as this critical study suggests, new values and dimensions are recognizable in his work. Professor Joseph, concentrating on the theme of love but involving in his argument other facets of Tennyson's achieve. ment, demonstrates the thesis that the poet moved as in a "strange diagonal". This phrase used as the subtitle of the book comes from Tennyson's poem The Princess in which the narrator moved as in a strange diagonal/ And maybe Aust pleased myself nor them.” As the author shows, Tennyson throughout his work moved between a Platonic conception of love in which the highest kind of spiritual love has disencumbered itself of sense and Neoplatonie (Dantesque) one in which sense and soul tend to merge. In coming to terms with the nineteenth-century form of this divided Western heritage, the pietism of the evangelical revival on the one hand and the idealized eroticism of his Romantic predecessors on the other, Tennyson became the exemplary poet of Victorian love. No other Victorian poet, Professor Joseph concludes, exhibits quite his representative and successful blending of these clashing strains. For while moving between the alternate traditions of Western love, Tennyson was able to forge a large body of highly disciplined, beautifully wrought, and farranging verse. Gerhard Joseph is an associate professor of English at Herbert H. Lehman College of the City University of New York.

Alfred Tennyson, primo Barone Tennyson (Somersby, 6 agosto 1809, Haslemere, 6 ottobre 1892), è stato un poeta inglese, laureato del Regno Unito, nonché uno dei più famosi del suo Paese. La maggior parte dei suoi versi furono ispirati a temi classici o mitologici, anche se la celebre In Memoriam fu scritta per commemorare il suo migliore amico Arthur Hallam, anch'egli poeta e suo compagno di corso al Trinity College di Cambridge, che si era fidanzato con sua sorella ma era improvvisamente morto nel 1833 a causa di un'emorragia cerebrale. Tra le opere più famose di Tennyson sono gli Idilli del re (Idylls of the King, 1885), una raccolta di poemetti interamente ispirati alla figura di Re Artù e al ciclo bretone e basati sui romanzi quattrocenteschi di Sir Thomas Malory. L'opera fu dedicata al Principe Alberto, marito della regina Vittoria. Nel corso della sua carriera Lord Tennyson si cimentò anche nella composizione di drammi teatrali, ma in questo campo i suoi lavori riscossero uno scarso successo.
