Summary "The Poems of Oliver Goldsmith" by Oliver Goldsmith is a collection of poetry written in the 18th century. This work showcases Goldsmith's diverse talent as a poet, capturing themes of rural life, human nature, and social criticism. With an insightful and often nostalgic tone, the collection invites readers to reflect on the past and the transformation of society, revealing the poet's deep affection for simpler, more innocent times. At the start of the collection, Goldsmith reflects on his childhood experiences in a rural setting, using vivid imagery to evoke memories of his youth spent in the idyllic village of Auburn. He paints a portrait of a once-thriving community, now overshadowed by the march of progress and luxury, leading to a sense of loss and melancholy. Through a rich tapestry of characters and heartfelt sentiment, Goldsmith explores the joys and sorrows of village life, setting the stage for the themes he will delve into throughout the collection.
