Bradley, the author is perhaps better known for his collection of critical essays on Shakespearean tragedy, particularly his commentary on King Lear. The style of writing is not easy to follow, and must be unpacked, which was typical of Victorian texts. Bradley's criticism of the poetic process is generally sublime as the essays do not seem to have clear demarcations. ( ) two general lerctures, one on Hegel, , one shjelley, one Wordworsworth, one "Long Poem in the Age of Wordsworth" one Keats and four Shakespeare. For me the most intersting are the one on "The Rejection of Falstaff" and "Shakespeare's Theatre and Audience." I agree with his enthusiasm for Falstaff though not his criticism of Henry V. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Andrew Cecil Bradley's enlightened and in-depth Oxford lectures on poetry are complete in this new edition, perfect for students or enthusiasts of poetry and literature. First published in 1909, this superb selection of lectures explains the nature, style and influences of several prominent European poets from the Renaissance, Enlightenment and Romantic eras. William Shakespeare is analysed and discussed extensively, as is William Wordsworth, Mary Shelley and others. Other, more general lectures supplement those about specific works and authors, providing the reader with insight into the construction and art of verse literature. Brimming with incisive comment and thoughts about the essential expression embodied in poetry, this volume is intended to stimulate and spark curiosity in poetry lovers. For experienced readers, Bradley's lectures may provide ample reason to revisit the works examined, while those new to poetry will find a superb introduction to some of the finest persons to have ever entered the craft. Authoritative and relevant more than a century after their compilation and publication in book form, this anthology of lectures demonstrates the finest academic traditions practised in Oxford University.
