Thomas Hardy: In Time of "The Breaking of Nations"
I
Only a man harrowing clods
In a slow silent walk
With an old horse that stumbles and nods
Half asleep as they stalk.
In a slow silent walk
With an old horse that stumbles and nods
Half asleep as they stalk.
II
Only thin smoke without flame
From the heaps of couch-grass;
Yet this will go onward the same
Though Dynasties pass.
From the heaps of couch-grass;
Yet this will go onward the same
Though Dynasties pass.
III
Yonder a maid and her wight
Come whispering by:
War’s annals will cloud into night
Ere their story die.
Come whispering by:
War’s annals will cloud into night
Ere their story die.
Thomas Hardy (1840-1928): In Time of "The Breaking of Nations", first published in Saturday Review, January 1916; collected in Late Lyrics and Earlier, 1922

"No parece errado afirmar que la mayoría de los miembros de esta sociedad que no están activamente locos son, en el mejor de los casos, lunáticos reformados o potenciales.
ReplyDeleteEstilos Radicales - S.Sontag Random House 2007 pag.95
¿existe la censura?
"It does not seem wrong to say that most members of this society who are not actively mad are, at best, retired or potential lunatics."
ReplyDeleteIs there censorship?
Hmm. I fear the best and only censor would be history. And history takes so long to unfold its repertoire of reward and censure.
Meanwhile, I don't think we can trust the committees...
