Basbanes writes of the shaping of Longfellow's character, his huge body of work that included translations of numerous foreign works, among them, the first rendering into a complete edition by an American of Dante's Divine Comedy. We see Longfellow's two marriages, each cut short by tragedy. His first to Mary Storer Potter that ended in the aftermath of a miscarriage, leaving Longfellow devastated. His second marriage to the brilliant Boston socialite-Fanny Appleton, after a three-year pursuit by Longfellow (his "fiery crucible," he called it), and his emergence as a literary force and a man of letters. A portrait of a bold artist, experimenter of poetic form and an innovative translator-the human being that he was, the times in which he lived, the people whose lives he touched, his monumental work, and its place in his America and ours. 538 Mode of access: World Wide Web. 600 10 Longfellow, Henry Wadsworth,|d1807-1882. 600 10 Longfellow, Fanny Appleton,|d1817-1861. 650 0 Poets, American|y19th century|vBiography. 650 0 Authors' spouses|zUnited States|vBiography. 700 1 Fass, Robert,|enarrator. 710 2 hoopla digital. 856 40 |uhttps://www.hoopladigital.com/title/ 14245813?utm_source=MARC|zInstantly available on hoopla. 856 42 |zCover image|uhttps://d2snwnmzyr8jue.cloudfront.net/ ttm_9781666111750_180.jpeg
