Bag om The Kiltartan Poetry Book

The Kiltartan Poetry Book is a collection of Irish poetry compiled by Lady Augusta Gregory, an Irish dramatist, folklorist, and theatre manager. The book features works from a variety of Irish poets, including W.B. Yeats, Lady Gregory herself, and many lesser-known poets from the Kiltartan region of Ireland. The poems cover a wide range of themes, from love and nature to Irish mythology and folklore. Lady Gregory's introduction provides insight into the cultural and historical context of the poems, and her notes on each poet offer additional background information. This book is an important contribution to the preservation and promotion of Irish literature and culture.As to the Seven Heavens that are around the earth, the first of them is the bright cloudy heaven that is the nearest and that has shining out of it the moon and the scattering of stars. Beyond that are two flaming heavens, angels are in them and the breaking loose of winds. Beyond those an ice-cold heaven, bluer than any blue, seven times colder than any snow, and it is out of that comes the shining of the sun. Two heavens there are above that again, bright like flame, and it is out of them shine the fiery stars that put fruitfulness in the clouds and in the sea.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.
