Light, L. Bowser and David Widger "In the Days When the World Was Wide and Other Verses" by Henry Lawson is a collection of poetry written during the late 19th century. The verses explore themes of nostalgia, hardship, and the Australian identity, capturing the experiences of everyday people and the challenges they face in life, particularly in theAustralian bush. The opening of the collection features a preface where Lawson expresses gratitude towards various editors who published his work, followed by the poem "To an Old Mate," which reflects on companionship and memory amidst the trials of life. This sets a tone of camaraderie as Lawson reminisces about past friendships and experiences shared with fellow bushmen. The following poem, "In the Days When the World was Wide," contrasts the adventurous spirit of the past with the more mundane present, evoking a longing for the freedom and valor of earlier times. Throughout the opening section, themes of struggle against nature, the bonds of friendship, and the weight of nostalgia permeate Lawson's reflections, establishing a rich emotional landscape that invites readers to connect with Australia's historical and cultural contexts.
