Today, we’re taking a closer look at "Hyperion: A Romance"which I guess is considered a novel, but really, it is just a work of prose. Longfellow was primarily known for his poetry. The book was very obviously about his courtship with Frances Appleton, who, by the way, did not appreciate the gesture at the time.
However, despite its bumpy beginnings, the novel was favorably viewed by American Critic and Poet RH Stoddard, as well as Noted critic John Neal, who called it a treasure and English composer Edward Elgar among many others now.
A compelling aspect or theme of the novel is the maturity, and strength the main protagonist Paul Flmeing shows in the midst of heart-breaking loss and visible vulnerability, and that’s what we want to explore further today as the protagonist's emotional evolution teaches us one of the best ways to persevere amidst heartbreak and loss..
