Home Page Poetry Index Edmund Gosse (1849-1928) Impression In these restrained and careful times Our knowledge petrifies our rhymes; Ah! for that reckless fire man had When it was witty to be mad; When wild conceits were piled in scores, And lit by flaming metaphors, When all was crazed and out of tune, Yet throbbed with music of the moon. If we could dare to write as ill As some whose voices haunt us till, Even we, perchance, might call our own Their deep enchanting undertone. We are too diffident and nice, Too much afraid of faults to be The flutes of bold sincerity. For as this sweet life passes by, We blink and not with critic eye; We've no words rude enough to give Its charm so frank and fugitive. The green and scarlet of the Park, The undulating streets at dark, The brown smoke blown across the blue, This colored city we walk through; The pallid faces full of pain, The field-smell of the passing wain, The laughter, longing, perfume, strife, The daily spectacle of life; Ah! how shall this be given to rhyme, By rhymesters of a knowing time? Ah! for the age when verse was clad

Edmund W. Gosse (1849-1928) On a Lute Found in a Sarcophagus Alcyone (A Sonnet in Dialogue) The Tomb of Sophocles On a Lute Found in a Sarcophagus What curled and scented sun-girls, almond-eyed, With lotus blossoms in their hands and hair, Have made their swarthy lovers call them fair, With these spent strings, when brutes were deified, And Memnon in the sunrise sprang and cried, And love-winds smote Bubastis, and the bare Black breasts of carven Pasht received the prayer Of suppliants bearing gifts from far and wide! This lute has outsung Egypt; all the lives Of violent passion, and the vast calm art That lasts in granite only, all lie dead; This little bird of song alone survives, As fresh as when its fluting smote the heart Last time the brown slave wore it garlanded. Alcyone (A Sonnet in Dialogue) What voice is this that wails above the deep? Alcyone. A wife's, that mourns her fate and loveless days. What love lies buried in these waterways? Alcyone. A husband's, hurried to eternal sleep. Cease, O beloved, cease to wail and weep! Alcyone.

No. 1864: PHILIP AND EDMUND GOSSE by John H. Lienhard Click here for audio of Episode 1864. Today, a Victorian naturalist. The University of Houston's College of Engineering presents this series about the machines that make our civilization run, and the people whose ingenuity created them. T he fervent British naturalist Philip Henry Gosse was born in 1810. He taught himself biology as he traveled Canada, the United States, and the Caribbean. Then he began writing about flora and fauna. He didn't marry until he was thirty-eight. His wife, Emily, was four years older than he, and a fine scholar. The marriage was almost painfully perfect. They shared an intense belief in a completely literal form of Christianity. They supported themselves by writing books; and they were immersed in one another. A son Edmund was born in 1849. But Emily contracted breast cancer when he was only nine, and she died, stoically, in great pain. Edmund Gosse grew up to become a great British writer and, in 1907, he published (anonymously) a book with the title

NPG 2205 Jpg: the-athenaeum.org/ National Portrait Gallery From: The World Book Sir Edmund Gosse, knighted much later in life (1849-1928), Poet and writer; son of Philip Henry Gosse. He was born Sept. 21, 1849, London, Eng. and died May 16, 1928, London. He was an English translator, literary historian, and critic who introduced the work of Henrik Ibsen and other continental European writers to English readers. Gosse was the only child of the naturalist Philip Henry Gosse. His mother having died when he was young, he was taken by his father to St. Mary Church, near Torquay, Devon, where he grew up, attending neighbouring schools. Living in a strict religious household, he came to know nonreligious poetry, fiction, and other literature only surreptitiously. He nevertheless secured employment on the library staff of the British Museum from 1865 to 1875, was a translator for the Board of Trade for some 30 years, lectured on English literature at Trinity College, Cambridge, from 1885 to 1890, and finally was librarian to the House of Lords from 1904 to 1914. Gosse was a prolific man of letters who was quite influential in his day. He translated three of Ibsen's plays [Scandinavian author], notably Hedda Gabler (1891) and The Master Builder (1892; with W. Archer). He wrote literary histories, such as 18th Century Literature (1889) and Modern English Literature (1897), as well as biographies of Thomas Gray (1884), John Donne (1899), Ibsen (1907), and other writers. Some of his many critical essays were collected in French Profiles (1905).

Edmund Gosse (1849-1928), Father and Son Father and Son is one of the rare literary treatments of Plymouth Brethrenism. Why do you think this may be the case? (small numbers, extremely separatist nature of sect) What are some distinctive features of their doctrines, even within the spectrum of nineteenth-century Protestantism? like Mill, he sees his parents as representative of a generation, places incidents in a historical context (55), and sees his own education as special Can you compare and contrast this autobiography with those of Trollope and Martineau? like Trollope, both parents presented as significant (a contrast with Mill); like Martineau, Gosse provides a good treatment of childhood responses (e. g., 21) What seems the narrator's attitude toward his parents, their religion, temperament and world view? presents them as virtually unique, unusually literalminded (57, 58) judges narrowness and implicit arrogance (96) effect of their tutelage: "They desired to make me truthful; the tendency was to make me positive and skeptical." gets unpleasant details exactly wry distance creates irony and sympathy at the same time (50, 53)
