Excerpt from The Poems of Sir Walter Raleigh: Collected and Authenticated With Those of Sir Henry Wotton and Other Courtly Poets; From 1540 to 1650; Edited With an Introduction and Notes
One is unwilling to let a youthful work remain unfinished, or to feel that any labour has been wasted by being left incomplete. I thought it worth while, therefore, to devote a summer's vacation to the renewal of long-suspended re searches among those printed and manuscript miscellanies of the Elizabethan period which are preserved in our great public libraries; and I have thus enabled myself to go over the subject afresh, and more completely, in the present volume, in which Raleigh takes the lead. The authentication of his poetry has been carefully revised and ex tended; and while I have excluded all the um authenticated poems from that division of the volume which bears his name, I have been able to include many genuine pieces which had found no previous place among his writings.

Excerpt from The Poems of Sir Walter Raleigh: Collected and Authenticated With Those of Sir Henry Wotton and Other Courtly Poets; From 1540 to 1650; Edited With an Introduction and Notes
My chief design in publishing this small volume is to do an act of justice to the memory of Sir Walter Raleigh, whose poetry has been unaccountably neglected by his biographers, though it is singularly well-fitted to illustrate his character, while it left a distinct mark on the literature of a most brilliant age. No attempt was made during his lifetime, or for long afterwards, to identify or gather up his scattered pieces. The most important of his poems, "Cynthia," has long been lost. The old editions of his "Remains" contain only three short poems. The first responsible editor of his minor writings could only extend the number to nine; and the collection admitted to the standard edition of his works is at once defective and redundant.
It is many years since I called attention to this subject in a volume which was meant, in the first instance, to illustrate the poetry of Sir Henry Wotton and his friends.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This substantial volume of poems and writings, long lost to history, collects and authenticates the works of Sir Walter Raleigh, a figure of great historical import and significance in the Elizabethan period, known for his bold explorations and innovative spirit. The author has taken great care to distinguish Raleigh's genuine works from those falsely attributed, and the result is a definitive collection that offers fresh insights into the writer's character and experiences. Many of Raleigh's most famous poems, such as The Lie, are included here along with lesser known but equally interesting verse and prose that illuminate the themes of Raleigh's life, from his love of his queen to his explorations of the New World to his deep faith. Raleigh emerges as a complex and fascinating character, brave, vain, passionate, and brilliant, and his writings mirror these qualities, providing an invaluable window into the Elizabethan era. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9781331176541_0
