Book Description
Excerpt from Letters of Louise Imogen Guiney, Vol. 2 of 2 My dear Mr. Gosse, - It has been in my mind, for ever so long, to send you a rather nice old Couleii Poemata, for the Library: which capital L is written with enthusiastic respect. And now I find a chance of so doing, which seems to me as pleasant as any in the world, by the hands of a friend who is going to England, and whom, apart from that mission, I very much desire to commend to your good graces. He is Mr. Thomas Whittemore, professor of English at Tufts College, near Boston, and "a most ingeniose person" in general: I do not believe Mrs. Gosse and you have ever let over your Sunday threshold a greater lover of one John Donne, D.D., for whose Life we are still hungrily looking. Will you not both use him gently, for my sake? ... With the Cowley is a bookie for Mrs. Gosse, which I hope she may like for its novelty, though the author's name is familiarly dear to her, and not unknown to title-pages! My affectionate remembrances to her always, and to Tessa, Philip, and Sylvia the fay. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Landscapes of Decadence
Author: Alex Murray
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1316764036
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 237
Book Description
The challenges posed by Decadence to Victorian moral conventions - particularly sexual - have been well documented, but this book makes the case for understanding Decadence as a response to the ways in which place was accorded moral value in the period. The book uses landscape as a key trope for exploring Decadent writing's approach to location and identity. Drawing on a wide range of fin-de-siècle literature organised around a series of locations from Naples to New York, Murray argues that Decadent writers developed a form of landscape and place-based writing using a series of stylistic features to challenge the increasing homogenisation of both place and literary culture. Decadence and the literature of the fin de siècle are re-framed as a politically-engaged form of landscape writing. This is an ambitious and richly researched study.
