It retells the myth of the Calydonian boar hunt: the fierce virgin huntress Atalanta, sworn to Artemis, draws first blood from the monstrous beast, and the young prince Meleager, who loves her, awards her the spoils. The gift ignites his kinsmen's wrath and delivers him, by his own mother's hand, to death.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSwinburne's choruses are among the most celebrated lyric passages in English verse, from the rushing joy of \"When the hounds of spring are on winter's traces\" to the dark hymn \"Before the beginning of years.\" Musical, pagan, and unrelenting, it set the mould for the aesthetic movement and remains a landmark of nineteenth century poetry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA Lightbound Library edition from Solocosmo Press, fronted by an original cover painting by Jessica von Braun.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlgernon Charles Swinburne\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolocosmo Press\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Lightbound Library\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePaperback and hardcover, 6 × 9, 108 pages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Solocosmo Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50144580436216,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0845\/2433\/5352\/files\/atalanta-front.jpg?v=1786502283","url":"https:\/\/solocosmo.org\/products\/atalanta-in-calydon","provider":"solocosmo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
