Odes

Odes: And Fugitive Poetry is a collection of poems written by French poet Anthony Ganilh and first published in 1830. The book is divided into two sections: the first section consists of odes, which are poems that celebrate or praise a particular subject or person, while the second section contains a variety of shorter poems that are more reflective and personal in nature.The odes in the collection cover a wide range of subjects, including nature, love, and patriotism. Many of the poems are written in a formal, classical style, with structured stanzas and rhyming patterns. Ganilh's use of language is often rich and ornate, with vivid imagery and elaborate metaphors.The second section of the book, which contains the fugitive poetry, is more varied in style and tone. These poems are often more introspective and explore themes such as loss, regret, and the passage of time. Some of the poems are written in a more modern, free-verse style, while others still follow a more traditional structure.Overall, Odes: And Fugitive Poetry is a testament to Ganilh's skill as a poet and his ability to write in a variety of styles and forms. The collection is a valuable contribution to the literary canon of the early 19th century and remains a fascinating read for anyone interested in French poetry of the period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
