Author: Robert Bridges Title: Poetical Works of Robert Bridges
Description: London, Humphrey Milford, 1914. Leather. An attractively bound collection of the poems of Robert Bridges. Containing Demeter, Prometheus the Firegiver, and Eros and Psyche, amongst others. As a poet Bridges stands rather apart from the current of modern English verse, but his work has had great influence in a select circle, by its restraint, purity, precision, and delicacy yet strength of expression. It embodies a distinct theory of prosody. Bridge's faith underpinned much of his work. With photographic monochrome frontispiece of the author. In a half-calf binding. Externally smart, with some light wear to the spine and a couple of marks to the boards only. Internally, firmly bound. Prize bookplate to front free-endpaper. Pages are mainly bright and clean, with just some scattered spotting to the front free-endpapers. Very Good Indeed . Ill.: None. Very Good Indeed .
