Sobre IBD

Lays of Romance and Chivalry is a collection of poems written by William Stewart Ross and published in 1884. The book contains a series of lyrical ballads that celebrate the ideals of romance and chivalry. The poems draw inspiration from medieval legends, heroic tales, and historical events, and are written in a style that reflects the romanticism of the Victorian era. The book is divided into three parts, each containing a series of poems that explore different themes and subjects. Part one focuses on the virtues of chivalry, including courage, loyalty, and honor. Part two celebrates the beauty and power of nature, while part three explores the themes of love and romance. Throughout the book, Ross uses vivid imagery and rich language to create a sense of wonder and enchantment. The poems are accompanied by illustrations that further enhance the book’s romantic and fantastical atmosphere. Lays of Romance and Chivalry is a timeless work of poetry that continues to captivate readers with its tales of knights, maidens, and heroic deeds.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
