The Life And Remains Of John Clare is a biography written by J.L. Cherry that chronicles the life of the English poet John Clare. Clare was born in 1793 and is known for his depictions of rural life and nature. The book covers Clare’s childhood in Northamptonshire, his rise to fame as a poet, and his eventual decline into poverty and mental illness. Cherry uses Clare’s own writings, as well as letters and accounts from those who knew him, to paint a vivid picture of the poet’s life. The book also includes a selection of Clare’s poems and prose, providing insight into his unique style and perspective. Overall, The Life And Remains Of John Clare is a comprehensive and engaging biography of one of England’s most celebrated poets.All that was possible was done for Clare at the house of Dr. Allen, one of the early reformers of the treatment of lunatics. He was kept pretty constantly employed in the garden, and soon grew stout and robust. After a time he was allowed to stroll beyond the grounds of the asylum and to ramble about the forest. He was perfectly harmless, and would sometimes carry on a conversation in a rational manner, always, however, losing himself in the end in absolute nonsense. In March, 1841, he wrote a long and intelligible letter to Mrs. Clare, almost the only peculiarity in which is that every word is begun with a capital letter.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
