Beskrivelse af The City Of Dreadful Night
The City of Dreadful Night is a collection of poems written by Scottish poet James Thomson. The book was first published in 1880 and is considered one of the most significant works of Victorian poetry. The poems are set in a dark and desolate city, where the narrator is lost and wandering aimlessly. The city is described as a place of despair, with no hope or joy to be found. The poems explore themes of loneliness, depression, and the struggle to find meaning in life. The language used in the book is rich and evocative, with vivid descriptions of the city and its inhabitants. The book is often cited as a precursor to modernist literature, with its focus on the individual experience and its bleak portrayal of urban life. Overall, The City of Dreadful Night is a powerful and haunting work of poetry that continues to resonate with readers today.A demon warder clutched me, Not so fast; First leave your hopes behind!--But years have passed Since I left all behind me, to the last: You cannot count for hope, with all your wit, This bleak despair that drives me to the Pit: How could I seek to enter void of it?This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
