The Life Of John Clare

The Life of John Clare is a biographical book written by Frederick Martin that explores the life of the English poet John Clare. The book delves into Clare's early life, his humble beginnings as a farm laborer, and his rise to fame as a poet in the early 19th century. Martin provides a detailed account of Clare's struggles with mental illness, including his time spent in asylums and his eventual release. The book also examines Clare's relationships with other literary figures of his time, including Lord Byron and William Wordsworth. Martin's research draws on Clare's own writings, as well as letters and other historical documents to provide a comprehensive portrait of the poet's life and legacy. The Life of John Clare is a must-read for anyone interested in the life and work of this influential poet.Nevertheless, the old spirit of faith urging him again and again, he had more than once renewed his communications with Mr. Henson, and repeated visits to Market Deeping at last produced a sort of treaty between bookseller and poet. Mr. Henson agreed to print, for the sum of one pound, three hundred prospectuses, inviting subscribers for a small collection of 'Original Trifles by John Clare.' The price of the volume was to be three shillings and sixpence, 'in boards;' and Mr. Henson promised that, as soon as one hundred subscribers had given in their names, he would begin to print the book, at his own risk.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
