It would be difficult to think of four Englishmen more English than Keats, Shelley, Byron, and Leigh Hunt, who were contemporaries in that golden age of English literature. Leigh Hunt's mother, Mary Shewell, however, was an American, and of six brothers and two sisters, only he and one sister (who died as a child) were born in England, All the others were born in America. Leigh Hunt's father For a portion of these final years, Brian Hunt's son, Reverend Isaac Hunt (Leigh Hunt's grandfather), was curate of the parish church of St. Michael in Barbados, which would indicate that there was a period during which father and son played concurrent roles in Bajan religious life. Isaac Hunt died in 1759 and is buried in the chancel of St. Michael's Church. In the circumstances , it is perhaps surprising that Leigh Hunt's father, born in Barbados and also named Isaac, chose not to follow a religious calling. Instead, after having been educated at the William Smith College in Pennsylvania, he elected to study law, eventually obtaining a degree in Philadelphia. He was a handsome and theatrical man with a magnificent voice (which, Leigh Hunt said, he "modulated with great effect"), and when he delivered the farewell oration at his graduation ceremony, a young girl of impeccable Quaker background fell in love with him. This was Mary Shewell, who became his wife on June 17, 1767. The appeal to a religious, demure, peace-loving Philadelphia girl of a flamboyant, debonair, and uninhibited man from the tropics must have been a source of puzzlement to many.

Length : Text-only version Prev Index Next Your comments on this poem to attach to the end [ microfaq Abou Ben Adhem Abou Ben Adhem (may his tribe increase!) Awoke one night from a deep dream of peace, And saw, within the moonlight in his room, Making it rich, and like a lily in bloom, An Angel writing in a book of gold: Exceeding peace had made Ben Adhem bold, And to the Presence in the room he said, "What writest thou?" The Vision raised its head, And with a look made of all sweet accord Answered, "The names of those who love the Lord." "And is mine one?" said Abou. "Nay, not so," Replied the Angel. Abou spoke more low, But cheerily still; and said, "I pray thee, then, Write me as one who loves his fellow men." The Angel wrote, and vanished. The next night It came again with a great wakening light, And showed the names whom love of God had blessed, And, lo! Ben Adhem's name led all the rest! James Leigh Hunt There's really nothing this poem needs said about it. It is - and I mean this is a strictly positive sense - a simple poem; Hunt takes a straightforward story and renders it in enjoyable verse, uncomplicated by hidden meanings or stylistic tricks. It's also an extremely well known poem - the latter due at least in part to its being inflicted upon countless generations of schoolchildren[1]. Wodehouse devotees will doubtless recognise the poem as being well-loved by Jeeves. [1] The young Isaac Asimov once got himself into trouble for, when asked why Ben Adhem's name led all the rest, waving his hand wildly and answering 'alphabetical order', a spirited but unappreciated stand against the belabouring of the obvious.

    A Contemporary Review of Aurora Leigh
    Betsy Boyd '95 (English 61, 1993)
    Victorian Web Home Authors Elizabeth Barrett Browning Works ... Biographical Materials Aurora Leigh, the 350-page poem by Elizabeth Barrett Browning, was first published in 1856, at which time the unique work received mixed reviews. An 1857 article from The Saturday Review describes Browning's poem as "wholly and obviously a fiction." Saturday Review , 2 (No. 61, December 27, 1856), 776-78). So, the critic considers Browning a competent English poet, but finds fault with her technique. Characters in Aurora Leigh, Browning allows Aurora to describe her own emotions, her independence, and the actions of other characters. Most of the time, the reader exists inside the poet's mind. Leigh Hunt, in a letter to Robert Browning, told the poet's husband that Aurora Leigh was a unique, wonderful and immortal poem; astonishing for its combination of masculine power with feminine tenderness; for its novelty, its facility, its incessant abundance of thought, and expression; its being an exponent of its age. . . its lovely willingness to be no loftier, or less earthly, than something on an equality with love. I cannot express myself as thoroughly as I would; I must leave that to the poet, worthy of the poetess, who sits at her side" (p.739). More interested in the universality of Aurora Leigh , this critic extols the virtues of Browning's blend of masculine and feminine forces. Of course, he acknowledges that the poem reflects the Victorian age. Judging from his statement about the poem's equality with love and earthliness of the poem, however, Hunt believes the work to make a statement about mortal life and emotional nature. Not so much concerned with the woman poet's dynamic personal strength, he praises the poem's excessive abundance of emotion. The following passage applies to this critique, showing Aurora expressing her feelings in a long gust of poetical phrases. "So many seasons I had forgot my Springs;/ My cheeks had pined and perished from their orbs,/ And all the youth blood in them had grown white/ As dew on autumn cyclamens: alone/ My eyes and forehead answered for my face (Bk. 4, p.154)."

    58. John Keats And Leigh Hunt
    An essay by by F. Joseph Byrnes, SJ on the history of the friendship between John Keats and leigh hunt .
    http://www.loyno.edu/history/journal/1984-5/byrnes-j.htm
    John Keats and Leigh Hunt by F. Joseph Byrnes, S. J. The history of the friendship between John Keats and Leigh Hunt is the story of Keat's development as a poet. Between the years 1816 and 1821, Keats became a mature poet, moving from the uneven workmanship of his youth to the mastery evidenced in his odes, in La Belle Dame sans Merci, in Lamia, in The Fall of Hyperion, and so on. These were the years also of his friendship with Leigh Hunt. Their relationship centered around poetry from the start, and poetry was responsible for many of the sufferings which it involved. It is the reason also for the special importance of that friendship. This paper will look at three aspects of the relationship between Keats and Hunt: 1) the progress and character of the friendship, 2) Hunt's criticism of Keats's work and 3) Hunt's influence on Keats. Progress and Character of the Friendship Along with his brothers John and Robert, Leigh Hunt edited and published the Examiner, a liberal weekly that did much to improve the literary quality of English journalism and did more to rile the conservative government of his time. Indeed, John and Leigh Hunt spent two years in prison, from January 1813 to January 1815, after being convicted of libel because they had called the Prince of Wales, among other things, The concerns of Hunt and the Examiner extended the censoring of the new Regent's antics. Barnette Miller, in her book about Hunt and his friendships, has enumerated the issues about which he was especially concerned:

    Bursts trembling from my swollen eyes,
    The rain's big drop, quick meets it there,
    And on my naked bosom flies!
    O pity, all ye sons of Joy,
    The little wand'ring Negro-boy.
    These tatter'd clothes, this ice-cold breast
    By Winter harden'd into steel,
    These eyes, that know not soothing rest,
    But speak the half of what I feel!
    Long, long, I never new one joy, The little wand'ring Negro-boy! Cannot the sigh of early grief Move but one charitable mind? Cannot one hand afford relief? One Christian pity, and be kind? Weep, weep, for thine was never joy, O little wand'ring Negro-boy! Is there a good which men call Pleasure? O Ozmyn, would that it were thine! Give me this only precious treasure;
