Opis

La Morte Amore: Vampire Poetry of the 1800s From the introduction, The Dark Embrace by Corvis Nocturnum Classic romantic vampire poetry had its roots in the early 1700s and well into the next century. Vampires and their shift from decaying, foul revenents was first in poetry, in poems of German writers in the mid-eighteenth century, and soon caught the fascination of the creative libertines of the English and Frenchmen. The mix was soon to influence writers of the Gothic horror and Gothic romantic period and gave birth to the modern vampire we imagine the undying to be, garbed as Ann Rice details, resplendent in lace and velvet. I theorize, that, much like myself, the classic scribes of yesterday was to leave a mark on the world long after their own death, allowing them to live on through all eternity - our own sense of immortality. So it is with great pleasure I open the dusty tomes of the past and share the dark embrace of the earliest vampire poems in the collection "La Morte Amore" Der Vampire by Heinrich August Eckenfelder (1748) Lenore by Gottfied August Burger (1773) Die Braut von Korinth by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1797) Christabel by Samuel Taylor Coleridge (date unknown) Thalaba the Destroyer by Robert Southey (1800) The Giaour by Lord Byron (1813) La Belle Dame Sans Merci by John Keats (1819) Lamia by John Keats (1820) The Vampyre by James Clerk Maxwell (1845) Le Vampire by Charles Baudelaire (1857) Les Metamorphoses du Vampire by Charles Baudelaire The Vampire by Rudyard Kipling (189 7)The Vampire by Jacques LeClercq"
