The Hill Of Vision (1912)

By James Stephens

Book Overview

The Hill Of Vision is a collection of essays and literary criticism written by James Stephens and first published in 1912. The book includes a variety of topics, from musings on the nature of poetry and the role of the poet, to critiques of the works of fellow Irish writers such as W.B. Yeats and John Millington Synge. Stephens' writing is characterized by a lyrical, poetic style, and his essays are often infused with a sense of wonder and reverence for the power of language and the creative imagination. The Hill Of Vision is a fascinating glimpse into the mind of one of Ireland's most celebrated literary figures, and remains an important work of Irish literature to this day.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
