Description
1900 ELIZABETHAN SONGS Poetry Cowley SHAKESPEARE Heywood Tudor England ART



“Elizabethan Songs in Honour of Love and Beautie” is a collection that brings together 124 exquisite poems from the prolific Elizabethan Age, extending even to writers like Waller and Herrick, who lived beyond Elizabeths reign. Painstakingly assembled and illustrated by Edmund H. Garrett, the book contains 21 captivating photogravure plates that bring the verses to life. In his introduction, Andrew Lang delves into the question of why the Elizabethan era was so rich in song and how the songs of that period possessed a natural and melodious quality that subsequent eras struggled to replicate. Drawing parallels between the songs and the socio-cultural landscape of the time, Lang highlights the intimate marriage of poetry and music, and laments the separation of these two art forms in later periods.
