Sobre este artículo
Portland: Oliver L Sanborn, 1839. Edward Young was an English poet from the 18th century, whose most well-known poem was "Night-Thoughts." Although Night Thoughts is long and disconnected poem, it abounds in brilliant isolated passages and it found an enormous amount of success. It was eventually translated into French, German, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Swedish, Welsh and Magyar. In France, in particular, it became a classic of the romantic school.
The poem is thought to be about the deaths of his daughter and son-in-law, and it deals with themes of morality, immortality and death. "Force of Religion", the other poem in this book is said to be about the execution of Lady Jane Grey and her husband (also known as the Nine Day Queen).
