Book Description
The book is intended for everyone, but especially those suffering with an affliction. My intended goal is to provide solace and comfort to those individuals who feel lonely and insecure. It is through informal lyrical rhyme in the poems which are inspired from the middle ages short verse that I bring forth my poetry. For I myself am suffering from an illness in which I search for support in others through readings or any other source that is a fountain of positive affirmations.

Letters Written During a Short Residence in Spain and Portugal
Author: Jonathan Gonzalez
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351127403
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 380
Book Description
In 1797 Robert Southey published a richly detailed account of his journey in Spain and Portugal between December 1795 and May 1796, from his arrival in Coruna in the northwest of the Spanish coast to the heart of Castile and into Madrid, before making his way to Lisbon. Structured as a series of letters written as he travelled across the Iberian Peninsula, Letters Written During a Short Residence in Spain and Portugal engages with the tradition of English travelogues, while borrowing traits from other genres such as the journal, translation, literary criticism, history, and the picturesque guidebook. On his way, Southey comments on every aspect of Spanish and Portuguese society, from local food and wine, bizarre customs, literature and theatregoing, to Iberian politics and religion. In his letters Southey, who would grow to become one of the leading Hispanists in late Georgian England, contrasts the political, religious, cultural and social systems of Britain and two of the oldest nations in the European continent in a way that raises important questions about cultural contact and transmission during the Romantic period. This edition critically reassesses Letters Written During a Short Residence in Spain and Portugal by looking at Southey’s deeply ambiguous cultural cosmopolitanism and his life-long investment in all things Spanish and Portuguese.
