The Rowley Poems (1911)

Bag om The Rowley Poems (1911)

The Rowley Poems is a collection of poems written by Thomas Chatterton and published in 1911. The poems are based on a fictional medieval bard named Thomas Rowley, who supposedly lived in the 15th century. Chatterton claimed to have discovered Rowley's manuscripts in a church in Bristol, England. The poems are written in a style that imitates Middle English, and they tell the stories of various historical figures and events, such as King Arthur and the Battle of Hastings. The authenticity of Chatterton's claims has been heavily debated, with some scholars believing that he fabricated the entire Rowley story. Regardless of their origins, The Rowley Poems are considered to be a significant work of Romantic literature and an important example of the Gothic literary tradition.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.
