Excerpt from The Life of William Wordsworth, Vol. 2 MY dear poole, At present I have taken up the pen solely on Coleridge's account, and must confine my letter to him and his affairs. I know how much you will be concerned to hear that his health cannot be said to be much better, indeed any better at all. He is apparently quite well one day, and the next the fit comes on him again with as much violence as ever. These repeated shocks cannot but greatly weaken his constitution; and he is himself afraid that, as the disease (which is manifestly gout) keeps much about his stomach, he may be carried off by it, with little or no warning. We all here feel deeply persuaded that nothing can do him any effectual good, but a change of climate. And it is, on this subject that I have now written to you. The place which he thinks of going to is the Azores; both for the climate and the baths - which are known to be exceedingly salutary in cases of gout and rheumatism and on account of the cheapness of living there, and the little expense in getting thither. But you know well how poor Coleridge is situated with respect to money affairs; indeed, it will be impossible for him to accomplish the journey without some assistance. Further, it seems to me absolutely necessary that this should be procured in a manner the least burthensome to his feelings possible. If the thought of it should hang upon his mind when he is away, it will undo, or rather prevent, all the salutary effects of the climate. I have thought it my duty to mention these circumstances to you, as being a person more interested than perhaps any other in what befalls our common friend.

Excerpt from The Letters of Charles Lamb, Vol. 2: Newly Arranged, With Additions Walpole, owes in large measure to him its survival. He is the pivot of a gay and well-born circle, which has reflected back on him the celebrity which he possesses through it, and it through him. If we except the tutelary influence of Coleridge, Lamb, on the contrary, is more largely indebted to the force of personal character, and to the lines of thought which he has made in a manner his own. There is a certain parallel between Lamb and Walpole in the circumstances under which considerable portions of both their series of Letters were produced for our instruo tion and delight. It is said that Walpole could maintain a conversation with a visitor while he sat at his table, manufacturing some budget of gossip, scandal, and wit for the benefit of one of his distant friends, and we know that Lamb stole (a condoned theft) from his hours of irksome labour on the ledgers of the India Company the time occupied, amid continual interruptions, in adding, unknown to himself, to our national literary treasures. But the parallel halts; for what in the Minister's son was hardly more than an affectation, in the other amounted to little less than a necessity. The Earl's coronet has fallen from him, and from the clerk his official quill; and both stand equal before us. No two men of genius are absolutely comparable. Neither of these had his like.

Emblematic Strategies in Pre-Raphaelite Literature

In this book, Heather McAlpine argues that emblematic strategies play a more central role in Pre-Raphaelite poetics than has been acknowledged, and that reading Pre-Raphaelite works with an awareness of these strategies permits a new understanding of the movement’s engagements with ontology, religion, representation, and politics. The emblem is a discursive practice that promises to stabilize language in the face of doubt, making it especially interesting as a site of conflicting responses to Victorian crises of representation. Through analyses of works by the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, Christina Rossetti, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Gerard Manley Hopkins, A.C. Swinburne, and William Morris, Emblematic Strategies examines the Pre-Raphaelite movement’s common goal of conveying “truth” while highlighting differences in its adherents’ approaches to that task.
