Omschrijving

Clare's The Shepherd's Calendar has become the classic poem of English rural life and ceremony. It was accompanied, when first published, by other poems, pastorals, and verse-tales, all of which appear in the first two volumes of the series, along with many others which were not included in the 1827 collection. Clare's first editors also tidied up and standardized his vocabulary, grammar, and spelling, but his original language has here been restored. By the late 1820's, Clare had developed his own distinctive idiom and had adopted a more powerful voice. These volumes make an important contribution to the ongoing reassessment of Clare as a major English poet.

This is the second of five volumes devoted to Clare's "middle period," between 1822 and 1837; it includes some of Clare's finest work, such as "The Last of Summer," The Mole Catcher." and the whole manuscript of the hitherto lost "Birds Nesting." These Poems of the Middle Period, which will complete the nine volume series of Clare's work, reveal the poet at his best.
