Carefully packed and quickly sent. 201512361 This Commentary provides an essential aid to the study of Hardy's poetry. As our appreciation of Hardy as a major poet has developed, it has become increasingly necessary to produce a guide through the complex and often perplexing intricacies of his work. Where does autobiography merge with fiction in the poetry? The poems as a whole, read in the light of this Commentary, record more of Hardy's private life than all other sources, and give us a greater understanding of the positive significance of his thought and of his view of the relationship of poetry to life.
