Críticas:
"'...Kenny has been thinking about Clough for over a quarter of a century, and it shows...warmly sympathetic but not uncritical portrait of a complex character whose sensibility can without blather be described as edgily modern.' Rupert Christiansen, The Spectator 'This is a very good critical biography, and an admirable picture of the intellectual world of early Victorianism.' Allan Massie, Literary Review '...This sad tale has now been told with great skill and delicacy by Anthony Kenny.' Paul Johnson, The Spectator"
Reseña del editor:
There has not been a full scale biography of Arthur Hugh Clough for some thirty years. From the 1860s it was not uncommon to regard Clough as an equal partner of a poetic fraternity whose other members were Tennyson, Browning, and Arnold. His poetry declined in reputation during the first half of the twentieth century, but was brought back into the public eye during the second world war. In 1941 Winston Churchill, anxious to secure American co-operation in the fight against Hitler, broadcast some lines from "Say not the struggle naught availeth" which ended "Westward, look, the land is bright". In the post-war years several critics have been willing to hail Clough as the most modern of Victorian poets. This biography stresses the close links between Clough's life and his poems, and pays particular attention to his love poetry and his associations with the many women who played an important part in his life.

Buchbeschreibung Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. There has not been a full scale biography of Arthur Hugh Clough for some thirty years. From the 1860s it was not uncommon to regard Clough as an equal partner of a poetic fraternity whose other members were Tennyson, Browning, and Arnold. His poetry declined in reputation during the first half of the twentieth century, but was brought back into the public eye during the second world war. In 1941 Winston Churchill, anxious to secure American co-operation in the fight against Hitler, broadcast some lines from Say not the struggle naught availeth which ended Westward, look, the land is bright. In the post-war years several critics have been willing to hail Clough as the most modern of Victorian poets. This biography stresses the close links between Clough's life and his poems, and pays particular attention to his love poetry and his associations with the many women who played an important part in his life. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Artikel-Nr. GOR006876438
