Written between the years 1798 and 1801, The Lucy Poems is a charming, pocket-sized collection of William Wordsworth’s Lucy poems, first published in one of his best-known works, Lyrical Ballads. The lyrical poetry in this volume explores nature motifs alongside melancholic themes of grief and unrequited love, surrounding a young English girl’s death. Lucy’s identity continues to be unknown and she is commonly thought to be figurative, a literary device for Wordsworth to reflect his own feelings of longing and loss on to. This collection includes all five of Wordsworth’s Lucy poems: - ‘Stange fits of passion I have known’ - ‘She dwelt among the untrodden ways’ - ‘I travelled among unknown men’ - ‘Three years she grew in sun and shower’ - ‘A slumber did my spirit seal’ Wordsworth was traveling Germany with his sister, Dorothy, at the time of writing this series. His growing irritation at his traveling companion and his desire to be reunited with his close friend, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, is evident in the works. Four of the five poems were first published in the collection Lyrical Ballads, composed by Wordsworth and Coleridge, that went on to form part of the early Romantic movement in England. This small edition of Wordsworth’s Lucy poems has been republished by Read & Co. Books Ragged Hand, complete with introductory excerpts from Thomas De Quincey and Thomas Carlyle. The Lucy Poems is an ideal collection for lovers of Romantic era poetry and Wordsworth’s beautiful nature imagery - the perfect companion for those who love reading poetry on the go.

"Though Wordsworth's 'Lucy Poems' are among the best-known lyric sequences in English, they did not exist as such in his day. 'Strange fits of passion have I known'; 'She dwelt among the untrodden ways'; 'I travelled among unknown men'; 'Three years she grew in sun and shower'; and 'A slumber did my spirit seal' were first gathered as 'Lucy Poems' by Victorian critics and editors shortly after Wordsworth's death. Mark Jones argues that the 'Lucy' grouping first took form as a simplification of Wordsworth's text, and that its persistence in modern criticism reflects primarily the literature institution's will to knowledge. Problematic in themselves and in their editorial history, the 'Lucy Poems' provide an excellent focus for a case-history in the modes of 'practical' criticism since 1800."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Seminar paper from the year 2015 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 1,0, RWTH Aachen University (Anglistisches Institut), course: Proseminar: Romantic Poetry, language: English, abstract: The term “Lucy Poems“ includes five poems written by the romantic poet William Wordsworth which, traditionally, are grouped in literary studies because they seemingly create an “extraordinary unity”. Yet the poet did not intend them to be sequenced. As a consequence, there is uncertainty about which and how many poems could be considered as a “Lucy Poem” or not. One has found a conventional solution or compromise declaring Wordsworth’s “Strange fits of Passion have I known”, “She dwelt among the untrodden ways”, “I travelled among unknown men”, “Three years she grew in sun and shower” and “A slumber did my spirit seal” to be the “Lucy Poems”. I will base my investigations on this grouping. During the poet’s time in Goslar, the German harvest and winter put Wordsworth in a pensive mood and “he turned [...] to thoughts of death, represented in his poetry by an elegiac strain far stronger than any of the varieties of sentimental morality it replaced”. The “Lucy Poems” arose out of this gloomy mood and can be described as “poems of homesickness”. Four of these poems, namely “Strange fits”, “She dwelt”, “A slumber” and “Three years” were published in the second volume of the Lyrical Ballads in 1800. The fifth one, “I travelled” was published later. Only in the later edition of the Lyrical Ballads published of 1815, Wordsworth rearranged all five poems as he divided his poetry into “Poems Founded on the Affections” and “Poems of the Imagination”. “Strange fits”, “She dwelt” and “I travelled” belong to the first group whilst “Three years” and “A slumber” were integrated into the latter. As the “Lucy Poems” are seen as a “sober meditation on death or a subject related to death” this link between the poems will be the subject of investigation in my seminar paper. Roughly summarizing the content of the poems, the speaker after somehow intuiting the passing away of his beloved Lucy meditates on her life and death. Since the representation of death in the “Lucy Poems” is linked to its counterpart, the representation of life, it is inevitable to naturally take a look at Lucy as a living creature of nature first. Examining the representation of Lucy’s passing and its emotional impact on the speaker in the five poems I will then illustrate the gradual changing within the motif of death.[...]

In her impressive first collection, Liljegren retells the Lucy stories from the iconic tv show, revealing depths and a darker side behind the slapstick. With great skill and exquisite language, Liljegren takes us through a series of episodes and imagined therapy sessions, complete with dream analysis, a Rorshach test, role reversal, and free association - associations that lead always to Ethel, and the endurance of women's friendship. Liljegren reveals the courage behind the humor, the power dynamics of marriage, the conflict between the good wife and the professional woman, of how we become the roles we play. We love Lucy, these poems say, because we know she is us. Cheryl Savageau, author of Dirtroad Home and Mother/Land
