Satires of Circumstance, Lyrics and Reveries, with Miscellaneous Pieces
Transcribed from the 1919 Macmillan and Co. edition by David Price
"Satires of Circumstance, Lyrics and Reveries, with Miscellaneous Pieces" by Thomas Hardy is a collection of poetry and reflections written during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This work captures Hardy's thoughts on love, loss, and the human condition, often exploring themes of nostalgia, regret, and the inexorable passage of time. As a distinguished poet and novelist, Hardy's lyrical prowess and keen observations come to life throughout this compilation. At the start of this collection, many poems explore deeply personal emotions and societal reflections. In "In Front of the Landscape," the narrator immerses himself in memories and the landscapes of his past, contemplating the nature of existence and the fleeting quality of remembrance. "Channel Firing" addresses the haunting sounds of artillery, juxtaposing the triviality of human-made conflicts with the eternal peace sought in death. Other pieces, such as "The Convergence of the Twain," reflect on triumph and tragedy, particularly in the context of the Titanic disaster. This opening section establishes a reflective tone, drawing readers into Hardy's exploration of life's complexities through his poignant verse. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
