Brian Lake Janet Nassau cata 203 roms A-C.indd 1 12/08/2013 10:32:21 BLAKE BLAKE, William, 1757-1827. Born in Soho, London, the third child of a hosier, Blake received little foeducation. He showed promise as an artist from an early age, and after a seven-year apprenticeship as an engraver, enrolled as a student at the Royal Academy in 1779. Drawn to radical company, his innate rebelliousness flourished, as evident in his output, both as poet and illustrator, which was characteristically satirical, mythological, and often at the expense of the establishment. His first work, Poetical Sketches, was published in 1783, but it was with Songs of Innocence, 1789, that his reputation was made. See also item 615. POETICAL SKETCHES 1.

Suffolk-born, Bloomfield worked variously as a farmhand and a cobbler, the former occupation providing the inspiration for his most famous work, The Farmer’s Boy, which met with immediate success when first published in 1800. Despite selling 26,000 copies over the next three years, the poem’s success did not bring Bloomfield financial stability, and the publication of several other well-received idylls could not save him from a pauper’s death.

A good-plus copy. ¶Pasted on to the initial blank, the engraved bookplate of Robert Bloomfield, dated 1813. Designed by W. Jackson of Gutter Lane, Cheapside, it mocks the conventional armorial bookplate, depicting not the usual paraphernalia of the nobility, but rather the more prosaic trappings of rural life: peasants in rural dress, farmyard animals, and agricultural machinery. It also depicts a figure riding a cow, holding aloft a shoe on the end of pike: a reference to Bloomfield’s occupation as a cobbler. The motto betrays the impoverished poet’s attitude toward high society: ‘Friends in need, and a fig for the Heralds’. 1813/1822/1823 £150 14. Rural Tales, ballads, and songs. 7th edn.

The Burnsian Palimpsest: Robert Burns in American Cultural Memory, c. 1840- 1866 The memory of Burns…The west winds are murmuring it… Ralph Waldo Emerson (Ballantine 1959: 37) ~ Cultural memory reaches back into the past only so far as the past can be reclaimed as ‘ours’… Jan Assmann (Assmann 2008: 111) Introduction Arguably more so than any other eighteenth-century literary figure, the political and popular legacy of Robert Burns has been continually contested, revised and appropriated to various ends. As recently as the 2015 UK General Election, the Scottish branch of the right-wing populist United Kingdom Independence Party (UKIP) attempted to win the hearts (if not the minds) of Scottish voters by producing posters emblazoned with lines from Burns’s ‘The Dumfries Volunteers’;1 while, previously, the opposing Scottish Nationalist Party strategically launched an electoral campaign on the poet’s birthday (Tempest 2005). Contests were also waged over Burns’s presumed political leanings during the 2014 Scottish Referendum, as he was variably cast as a Unionist or Nationalist across several media outlets (Maddox 2012).

I have put it second in the pair because that is its right place. Criticisms, com^ ments, interpretations, are of comparatively little use until you have read the poetry of which they treat. Like photographs of places that one has not seen, they lack the reviving, realizing touch of remembrance. The book contains a series of essays, written at dif- ferent times, printed separately in different places, and collected, substantially, in a book called The Poetry of Tennyson, which was fortunate enough to find many friends, and has now, I believe, gone out of print.
