This substantial volume of poems and writings, long lost to history, collects and authenticates the works of Sir Walter Raleigh, a figure of great historical import and significance in the Elizabethan period, known for his bold explorations and innovative spirit. The author has taken great care to distinguish Raleigh's genuine works from those falsely attributed, and the result is a definitive collection that offers fresh insights into the writer's character and experiences. Many of Raleigh's most famous poems, such as The Lie, are included here along with lesser known but equally interesting verse and prose that illuminate the themes of Raleigh's life, from his love of his queen to his explorations of the New World to his deep faith. Raleigh emerges as a complex and fascinating character, brave, vain, passionate, and brilliant, and his writings mirror these qualities, providing an invaluable window into the Elizabethan era. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
