{"product_id":"the-pre-raphaelites-and-their-circle-cecil-y-lang-9780226468662","title":"The Pre-Raphaelites and Their Circle","description":"This useful volume presents the major works of the five leading Pre-Raphaelite poets. Foremost in the collection, and included in their entirety are D. G. Rossetti's \u003ci\u003eThe House of Life\u003c\/i\u003e, C. G. Rossetti's \"Monna Innominata,\" William Morris's \"Defence of Guenevere,\" Swinburne's \u003ci\u003eAtalanta in Calydon\u003c\/i\u003e, and Meredith's \"Modern Love.\" Complementing these major poems is a fine, generous selection of the poets' shorter pieces that are typical of their work as a whole. For this second edition, Cecil Lang has substituted two early Swinburne poems, \"The Leper\" and \"Anactoria,\" for Fitzgerald's \u003ci\u003eThe Rub疂y疸 of Omar Khayy疥\u003c\/i\u003e. These poems, which the editor describes as \"shocking,\" show a new aspect of Swinburne not discussed previously. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eLang's Introduction describes briefly the founding of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, discusses each of the Pre-Raphaelite poets, both individually and in relation to the others, and grapples with the questions of definition of Pre-Raphaelitism and the similarities between its painting and poetry. The book is appropriately illustrated with thirty-two works by D. G. Rossetti, John Ruskin, William H. Hunt, and other Pre-Raphaelite artists. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis is the only anthology available that provides a representative selection of the work of these important poets. It will be indispensable to students of Victorian poetry and appreciated by readers interested in the Pre-Raphaelites. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Cecil y.
