Poezja i Dramat
The 'Poetical Works of Johnson, Parnell, Gray, and Smollett' offers a vivid panorama of 18th-century British poetry, encapsulating the remarkable diversity in style, theme, and scope characteristic of the period. This anthology stands as a testament to the transformational era of literature wherein the neoclassical modality began its evolution towards romanticism. Within its pages, readers are treated to a broad spectrum of poetic expressions, from the moral and didactic to the evocatively sublime, making clear the significant breadth of the century's literary achievements. The inclusion of seminal works from each poet provides a comprehensive insight into the rich tapestry of 18th-century poetry. The anthology brings together the works of four prominent figures whose contributions were pivotal to the literary landscape of their time. Samuel Johnson, known for his critical essays and the influential 'Dictionary of the English Language,' lends a moral and philosophical depth. Thomas Parnell and Thomas Gray, both celebrated for their lyricism and thematic richness, explore the human condition and natural beauty. T. Smollett, with his robust narratives, bridges the gap between poetry and prose. Collectively, these authors embody the spectrum of 18th-century thought and sensibility, highlighting the philosophical, aesthetic, and cultural shifts of the Enlightenment and its aftermath. 'Readers seeking an in-depth exploration of 18th-century English poetry will find this collection an invaluable resource. Not only does it curate a significant cross-section of poetic works that define the era, but it also invites a comparative reading across the different authors to fully appreciate the dynamic intellectual and artistic currents of the time. The anthology serves both as an educational tool and a source of enjoyment, offering insights into the essence of human experience as articulated by some of the period's most influential voices. Its variety ensures a richly rewarding reading experience, beckoning to those eager to immerse themselves in the nuanced world of 18th-century poetry.'
