Autorenporträt

Madison Julius Cawein (March 23, 1865 - December 8, 1914) was an American poet hailing from Louisville, Kentucky, who garnered acclaim for his nature poems and lyrical work during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Cawein's poetry exudes a deep romanticism and vivid imagery of the natural world; he has been aptly nicknamed the 'Keats of Kentucky.' His extensive oeuvre often reflected the influences of the English Romantic poets as well as a Pre-Raphaelite lushness and precision in detail. 'The Triumph of Music, and Other Lyrics' is among Cawein's notable collections, emphasizing his mastery in intertwining music with poetic form, and symbolic elegance reflecting nature's symphony. Alongside this work, Cawein published nearly thirty-six volumes of poetry during his lifetime, including 'Myth and Romance' and 'Weeds by the Wall.' Despite his prolific output and once considerable popularity, Cawein's work fell into relative obscurity following his death. Today, he stands as a compelling figure in American literature, representing the more delicate and aesthetically focused vein of poetry that juxtaposed the era's industrial pragmatism. Scholarly re-examination of Cawein's poetry has cast light upon his technical skill, imagination, and the emotional eloquence that marked his contributions to early American poetry.
