Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Hardcover. What do the works of Thomas Hardy offer us apart from tragedy? This book intends to answer that question, providing a groundbreaking reading of Hardys poetry that reveals a hitherto critically neglected optimism. In doing so it seeks to challenge the dominant view of Hardys work as pessimistic. It aims to demonstrate that Hardys poetry contains a surprising amount of hope and joy which, when examined critically, reveals to us a new and brighter view of his philosophy. Hardys poetry is naturally more condensed than his fiction, and his poems function as individual thought acts in which personal moments are more pronounced and sustained. These thought acts enable him to emphasise moods that are not merely pessimistic but joyous and hopeful. Such optimistic examples are not anomalies. Rather, pleasures such as dancing, music, eating and celebration perform a significant counterbalancing function across Hardys collection of over 900 poems. In fully acknowledging these important brighter aspects, we can see Hardys complex poetry as balancing an acute and profound understanding of lifes hardships with an equally significant awareness and celebration of its pleasures. In fully acknowledging these important brighter aspects, we can see Hardys complex poetry as balancing an acute and profound understanding of lifes hardships with an equally significant awareness and celebration of its pleasures.
