Although Gosse recognised that his family home was probably the `most cultivated household in the parish', he could not recall seeing a single nude figure until he was thirteen. Then, his step-mother brought a `gaudy gift-book ... containing a few steel engravings of statues'. These `attracted him violently'. With little accompanying information to go on, Gosse was initially somewhat baffled by what he saw. He therefore asked his father, the renowned natural theologian, P.H. Gosse, about the sculptures one morning over breakfast. His pater's resporlse was `direct and disconcerting'. He said that the Greek statues were the `shadows cast by the vices of the heathen, and reflected their infamous lives'. It was for such things as these, Gosse senior warned

University of Rochester River Campus Libraries D.46 SIR EDMUND WILLIAM GOSSE PAPERS, 1882-1929 1 box (43 items) Sir Edmund William Gosse (1849-1928) poet and man of letters, was the only son of the zoologist Philip Henry Gosse (1810-1888). He was successively employed in the cataloguing department of the British Museum, 1865-1875, as translator to the Board of Trade, 1875-1904, and as Librarian to the House of Lords, 1904-1914. From 1875 he published volumes of poetry, criticism and biography, which led to a lecture tour in the United States in 1884-85 and an appointment as lecturer in English literature at Cambridge, 1885-1890. His reputation as a critic suffered in a controversy with John Churton Collins in 1886, but he eventually recovered and from 1918 to 1928 he wrote a series of weekly columns about books for the Sunday Times . Gosse's acquaintances included most of literary London, and his home was a meeting place for many friends. The correspondence in chiefly concerned with the details of publishing and criticism, business exchanges, and social notes. The letters to Theodore Blake Wirgman, sculptor and painter, concern paintings, Academy showings, and social occasions. Other correspondents are Kate Douglas Wiggin, John Lane, Oswald John Frederick Crawfurd and Clarence Winthrop Bowen. Gift of Gamma Phi Sorority, August 1974.

This Hyper-Concordance is written in C++, a program that scans and displays lines based on a command entered by the user. The main advantage of the C++ program is that it not only identifies the concordance lines but the words occurring to the left and the right of the word or phrase searched. It also reports the total number of text lines, the total word count and the number of occurrences of the word or phrase searched. The full text of the book is displayed in a box at the bottom of the screen. Each line of the text is numbered, and the line number and the term(s) searched provide a link to the full text. The Hyper-Concordance displays two pull-down boxes. The user can first choose one of a selection of authors from the box and then one from a list of the author's works. There are four limiting options displayed before searching: case sensitive, non-alphabet character sensitive, head length and tail length. The searcher can also ascertain the book's total word count and vocabulary distribution by searching without a query. I hope this web-based KWIC concordance (Key Word in Context) offers a clear survey of Victorian literary texts. My warmest thanks go to a colleague of mine, Dr. Masahiro Komatsu (Graduate School of Languages and Cultures, Nagoya University), who was kind enough to write the C++ program.

54. Whitman's Essay, "Sir Edmund Gosse." apart from the company of the Poets. Sir Edmund Gosse (18491928)._ Found this material Helpful? http://www.blupete.com/Literature/Essays/Best/GosseWhitman.htm

"Walt Whitman." By Sir Edmund Gosse Fatima was permitted, nay encouraged, to make use of all the rooms, so elegantly and commodiously furnished, in Bluebeard Castle, with one exception. It was in vain that the housemaid and the cook pointed out to her that each of the ladies who had preceded her as a tenant had smuggled herself into that one forbidden chamber and had never come out again. Their sad experience was thrown away upon Fatima, who penetrated the fatal apartment and became an object of melancholy derision. The little room called "Walt Whitman," in the castle of literature, reminds one of that in which the relics of Bluebeard's levity were stored. We all know that discomfort and perplexity await us there, that nobody ever came back from it with an intelligible message, that it is piled with the bones of critics; yet such is the perversity of the analytic mind, that each one of us, sooner or later, finds himself peeping through the keyhole and fumbling at the lock. As the latest of these imprudent explorers, I stand a moment with the handle in my hand and essay a defence of these whose skeletons will presently be discovered. Was it their fault? Was their failure not rather due to a sort of magic that hands over the place? To drop metaphor, I am sadly conscious that, after reading what a great many people of authority and of assumption have written about Whitman - reading it, too, in a humble spirit - though I have been stimulated and entertained, I have not been at all instructed. Pleasant light, of course, has been thrown on the critics themselves and on their various peculiarities. But upon Whitman, upon the place he holds in literature and life, upon the questions, what he was and why he was, surely very little. To me, at least, after all the oceans of talk, after all the extravagant eulogy, all the mad vituperation, he remains perfectly cryptic and opaque. I find no reason given by these authorities why he should have made his appearance, or what his appearance signifies. I am told that he is abysmal, putrid, glorious, universal and contemptible. I like these excellent adjectives, but I cannot see how to apply them to Whitman. Yet, like a boy at a shooting-gallery, I cannot go home till I, too, have had my six shots at this running- deer.

OME, Hesper, and ye Gods of mountain waters, Come, nymphs and Dryades, Come, silken choir of soft Pierian daughters, And girls of lakes and seas, Fill all the earth and air; Shout back the echo there! All day in soundless swoon or heavy slumber, We lay among the flowers, But now the stars break forth in countless number To watch the dewy hours; And now Iacchus, beautiful and glowing, Adown the hill-side comes, Mid tabrets shaken high, and trumpets blowing, And resonance of drums. The leopard-skin is round his smooth white shoulders, The vine-branch round his hair, Those eyes that rouse desire in maid-beholders Are glittering, glowworm-fair; Crowned king of all the provinces of pleasure, Lord of a wide domain, He comes, and brings delight that knows no measure, A full Saturnian reign. Take me, too, Maenads, to your fox-skin chorus, Rose-lipped like volute-shells, For I would follow where your host canorous Roars down the forest-dells; The sacred frenzy rends my throat and bosom! I shout, and whirl where He
