- Résumé : "Time's Laughingstocks and Other Verses" by Thomas Hardy is a collection of poems that delve into the themes of time, fate, and the human condition. Published by Project Gutenberg, this work is available for free, allowing readers worldwide to explore Hardy's poetic reflections without cost. The collection is characterized by Hardy's distinctive style, which often combines a somber tone with a deep philosophical inquiry into life's transient nature. The poems explore the inevitability of change and the passage of time, often portraying human beings as subjects to the whims of fate and the universe. Hardy's use of language is both precise and evocative, drawing readers into a contemplative space where they can ponder the larger questions of existence. The collection is not just a reflection on time but also a commentary on the societal norms and personal experiences that shape human life. Through his verses, Hardy invites readers to consider their place in the world and the forces that govern their lives, making "Time's Laughingstocks" a timeless exploration of the human spirit.
- 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.
