Thomas Gray a Life
- Binding: Hardcover
- Publisher: Yale Univ Pr
- Publish date: 08/01/2000
The book provides important new information on Gray's family and background and closely examines the domestic environment of his formative years. By investigating how his father's abuse affected the poet, Mack casts new light tm Gray's personality -- and on the way that personality consistently and invariably informed his writing. The author applies a revised understanding of the psychological and sexual tensions in Gray's life to a close reading of this poetry and correspondence and finds a homoerotic desire lying just beneath the surface of almost all of Gray's important writings, including his "Sonnet" on the death of Richard West, the "Eton Ode", and his masterpiece, "Elegy Written in a Country Church-Yard".
