| Summary | "James Russell Lowell and His Friends" by Edward Everett Hale is a biographical account written in the late 19th century. This work explores the life and friendships of the renowned poet and essayist James Russell Lowell, delving into his upbringing, education, and the intellectual circles of Boston. The focus shifts to the notable relationships he had with fellow literary figures, detailing how these connections influenced both his work and the literary landscape of the time. The opening of the book sets the stage for Lowell's early life and influences, illustrating a privileged upbringing in a culturally rich environment at Elmwood, the Lowell family home in Cambridge. Hale describes the idyllic conditions of Lowell's childhood and the nurturing familial relationships that shaped his character. The narrative begins with a discussion of Lowell’s father, Rev. Charles Lowell, and the poetic influences that surrounded James from an early age, painting a vivid portrait of a young boy immersed in literary culture. The detailed descriptions of Lowell's boyhood, educational journey, and the notable people in his life hint at the complexities of his character and the foundational experiences that would inform his work as a poet and thinker.
