By Lascelles Abercrombie

Book Overview

Emblems of Love: Designed in Several Discourses is a book written by Lascelles Abercrombie and published in 1912. The book is a collection of poetic essays that explore the various facets of love. Abercrombie uses emblems, or symbolic representations, to convey his ideas about love, and each discourse is accompanied by a corresponding emblem. The book is divided into five parts, each of which explores a different aspect of love, including the nature of love, the power of love, the beauty of love, the tragedy of love, and the triumph of love. The essays are written in a lyrical and meditative style, and Abercrombie draws upon a wide range of sources, including mythology, literature, and philosophy, to explore his theme. Overall, Emblems of Love is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of one of the most enduring and complex human emotions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
