Description

Poems by Matthew Arnold: Dramatic and Later Poems is a collection of poetry originally published in 1885 by the English poet and cultural critic, Matthew Arnold. The book is divided into two parts: the first section contains Arnold's dramatic poems, which explore themes of love, politics, and morality through the use of characters and dialogue. The second section features Arnold's later poems, which are more reflective and personal in nature, delving into the poet's own thoughts and experiences.Throughout the collection, Arnold's writing is characterized by its clarity, intelligence, and sensitivity. He employs a wide range of poetic forms and techniques, including sonnets, elegies, and free verse, and his language is often marked by its musicality and lyricism. Arnold's poetry is also notable for its engagement with contemporary social and political issues, including the role of religion in modern society and the tension between tradition and progress.Overall, Poems by Matthew Arnold: Dramatic and Later Poems is a rich and varied collection that showcases the breadth and depth of Arnold's poetic talent.
