Fifty Shades of November

A E Housman

The eleventh month of the Gregorian year brings the change from Autumn into Winter. Landscapes are scrubbed of colour and all their frills, the statued forms of trees are the grammar, the structure of her ways. Days shorten, nights lengthen and for our classic poets there is work to be done. Across fifty poems our classic poets including Matthew Arnold, Thomas Hardy, Herman Melville, Anna Laetitia Barbauld and Alice Guerin Crist illuminate the month, the natural world and the human condition. In their words our experiences are reshaped, our views are rethought and our place in the world made a little more sense of. 1 - Fifty Shades of November - An Introduction 2 - November by John Clare 3 - November Findings, November 1862 by Janet Hamilton 4 - November by William Cullen Bryant 5 - To a Mouse by Robert Burns 6 - To a Robin in November by William Wilfred Campbell 7 - The TWA Corbies by Anonymous 8 - Bird's Nests by Edward Thomas 9 - We Plough the Fields and Scatter by Mattias Claudius 10 - A Hymn on the Seasons (An Extract) by James Thomson 11 - A Shropshire Lad XXVII - Is My Team Ploughing by A E Housman 12 - At Day Close in November by Thomas Hardy 13 - A November Night by Sara Teasdale 14 - In November by Archibald Lampman 15 - Who Has Seen the Wind by Christina Rossetti 16 - Autumn Song by Katherine Mansfield 17 - November Song by Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe 18 - Love in Autumn by Sara Teasdale 19 - The Wind's Lament by John Morris-Jones 20 - By the Hearth by Elizabeth Stuart Phelps 21 - A Calender of Sonnets - November by Helen Hunt Jackson 22 - November Blind by Phillip Henry Savage 23 - In This Fog by Daniel Sheehan 24 - November by Thomas Hood 25 - Among the Rocks by Robert Browning 26 - November by John Payne 27 - Mild the Mist Upon the Hill by Emily Bronte 28 - The Storm by George Herbert 29 - Pray To What Earth Does This Sweet Cold Belong by Henry David Thoreau 30 - November by Amy Lowell 31 - Frost At Midnight by Samuel Taylor Coleridge 32 - Dupont's Round Fight (November 1861) by Herman Melville 33 - A Thanksgiving Poem by Paul Laurence Dunbar 34 - In November by Phillip Henry Savage 35 - November Days in Ireland by Alice Guerin Crist 36 - November 1806 by William Wordsworth 37 - A Shropshire Lad XXXVIII - The Winds Out of the West Land Blow by A E Housman 38 - November 1847 by Henry Alford 39 - Sonnet 73 - That Time of Year Thou Mayst in Me Behold by William Shakespeare 40 - The Going of the Battery (Wives Lament November the 2nd 1899) by Thomas Hardy 41 - The Melancholy Year is Dead with Rain by Trumbell Stickney 42 - A November Note by Alfred Austin 43 - November by Lucy Hamilton Hooper 44 - November 1813 by William Wordsworth 45 - A Thought on Death, November 1814 by Anna Laetitia Barbauld 46 - On the Death of Princess Borghese, at Rome, November 1840 by Richard Monckton Milnes Houghton 47 - Paris.
