- Résumé : What if the circumstances of life were the true architects of our emotions? In "Satires of Circumstance: Lyrics & Reveries with Miscellaneous Pieces," Thomas Hardy delves into the intricate dance between fate and feeling. Set against the backdrop of the late Victorian era, this collection of poems captures the essence of human experience through a tapestry of lyrical narratives and reflective musings. Hardy, known for his profound understanding of the human condition, weaves themes of love, loss, and the inexorable passage of time into his verses, offering readers a glimpse into the complexities of life and the inevitability of change. The poems in this collection are divided into distinct sections, each exploring different facets of existence. "Lyrics and Reveries" presents a series of intimate reflections, where personal emotions are laid bare, revealing the inner workings of the heart. In contrast, "Satires of Circumstance" offers a more detached perspective, using irony and wit to critique societal norms and the often absurd nature of human behavior. The "Miscellaneous Pieces" section provides a diverse array of themes, showcasing Hardy's versatility as a poet. Throughout the collection, Hardy's mastery of language and form is evident, as he employs a variety of poetic techniques to convey his insights. His use of vivid imagery and poignant symbolism invites readers to ponder the deeper meanings behind each poem, encouraging a thoughtful exploration of the themes presented. By examining the interplay between circumstance and emotion, Hardy challenges us to consider how external forces shape our inner lives. In offering a window into the human soul, "Satires of Circumstance" provides readers with a rich tapestry of thought and feeling. Through Hardy's exploration of life's complexities, we gain a deeper appreciation for the nuances of our own experiences, and the ways in which they are influenced by the world around us.
- Biographie : Thomas Hardy OM (2 June 1840 - 11 January 1928) was an English novelist and poet. A Victorian realist in the tradition of George Eliot, he was influenced both in his novels and in his poetry by Romanticism, including the poetry of William Wordsworth. He was highly critical of much in Victorian society, especially on the declining status of rural people in Britain, such as those from his native South West England. While Hardy wrote poetry throughout his life and regarded himself primarily as a poet, his first collection was not published until 1898. Initially, he gained fame as the author of novels such as Far from the Madding Crowd (1874), The Mayor of Casterbridge (1886), Tess of the d'Urbervilles (1891), and Jude the Obscure (1895). During his lifetime, Hardy's poetry was acclaimed by younger poets (particularly the Georgians) who viewed him as a mentor. After his death his poems were lauded by Ezra Pound, W. H. Auden and Philip Larkin.
