This vintage book contains James Edmund Harting’s 1841 work; “The Birds under Domestication - Domesticated Birds in Literature and Poetryâ€. Within it, Harting explores the link between beautiful songbirds and their use in literature, covering the mediaeval period through to Shakespeare and the modern era. Contents include: “Cock-Crowâ€, “The Cockâ€, “Cock-A-Hoopâ€, “Cock and Pyeâ€, “Cock-Fightingâ€, “Ancestry of Domestic Cockâ€, “The Peacockâ€, “The Turkeyâ€, “Its Introduction into Englandâ€, “Turkey-Fowl and Guinea-Fowlâ€, “Its Early Domesticationâ€, etcetera. This book will be of utility to students of English literature, and would make for a great addition to any bookshelf. Many antiquarian texts such as this - particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before - are increasingly hard to come by and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this book now, in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
