Poems of Paganism Paganus

"Poems of Paganism" is a nice collection of late 19th century poetry from a romantic period in which ancient epic met romance. Forsaking the dry character of then-modern brimstone laden religious thought, the Western mind turned to antiquity and envisioned a golden age of bravery on one hand and nobility on the other; all enshrouded of course by the innate drive of mankind towards companionship. The poems range from the optimistic and hopeful to the gloomy; a wide range of material all subjugated to human relationships, and vastly underrated.
