Book Description
Excerpt from Courage in Politics, and Other Essays, 1885-1896 The book is a book of doctrine, and is original' only in that it goes back to origins the doctrines are those of Aristotle, of Goethe, of Coleridge, indeed as one can imagine Patmore saying, of all sensible men The style only that holds them together is his own. One need not exaggerate the tartness of the flavour it existed in Coventry Patmore, and in his writings, only as the safeguard of an inner core of sweetness, and in the ensuing essays there is not infrequent fun and at least one of his rare instances of tenderness.
