Address: http://www.cs.rice.edu/~ssiyer/minstrels/poems/96.html
Contact: Sitram Iyer (ssiyer@cs.rice.edu)
Date: 07/01/04
Part of a "The Wandering Minstrels" page mastered by Sitram Iyer, who is associated with the Computer Science Department at Rice University, Houston, TX, USA. Provides the text of "During Wind and Rain," followed by these elements: (1) an unsigned paragraph of comment, probably by Sitram Iyer, beginning, "Hardy's poetry is somewhat more depressing than I usually care for, but it has a compelling quality that makes up for it"; (2) two paragraphs of "Biography and Assessment" attributed to Louis Untermeyer; and (3) two paragraphs emphasizing that Hardy's "style undergoes no significant change over time" attributed to "E.B."
COMMENT:
No data on the print source of the poem or on the procedures for its reproduction are provided; see our GENERAL CAUTION about such texts. The comment by Iyer is jejune, and specific sources for the brief remarks attributed to Louis Untermeyer and to "E.B" are not provided.
