This page from "The Age Education Magazine," part of a complex commercial site maintained by The Age Online Pty Ltd based in Australia, provides a fifteen-paragraph essay on "The Convergence of the Twain" titled "Poem That Sank the Titanic, With Style" by Leslie Greagg. The essay includes a text of the poem.
COMMENT:
Leslie Greagg is not otherwise identified. The essay, written in short, one-or-two sentence paragraphs, is a very elementary analysis of the language of the poem, concentrating on such terms as stilly, thrid, and vaingloriousness, and, rather dubiously, linking Hardy's diction with the influence of the Arts and Crafts Movement. The print source from which the Hardy poem was derived is not identified. See our GENERAL CAUTION about such texts.
