Description
Dark Romanticism loved the irrational, the scary spooky, and the demonic Grosteske. The fallen writers explored the worlds of nightmares, psychic disturbances, fears, and dark sides of the human, as far as possible. They did not want to show the boundaries between nightmare and reality, but rather to blur those limits in their works.
Oh, Death! is an Anthology of English romantic poetry by Edward Young, Felicia Dorotea Hemans, Percy Shelley, Robert Southey, William Wordsworth and many more, carefully selected by Claudio Rocchetti. The Artist Marcello Crescenzi (Rise Above) created the beautiful design for this wonderful little book.
