This 1915 collection of literary essays reflects the author’s conviction that such essays should ideally convey to readers the impact of an author or work of fiction upon the critic: no more and no less. The artists covered include Rabelais, Dante, Shakespeare, Milton, Dickens, Nietzsche, Hardy, Poe, and Whitman, among other greats.
A propos de l’auteur
John Cowper Powys (1872-1963) was a prolific British novelist and critic. He is best known today for the novels Wolf Solent (1929), A Glastonbury Romance (1932), and Owen Glendower (1940), as well as his Autobiography (1934). An idiosyncratic writer, Powys drew on strains of Romanticism and the dour determinism of Hardy, adding a mysticism all his own.
