Summary "A Treasury of Canadian Verse" by Theodore H. Rand is a collection of English-Canadian poetry written in the late 19th century. This anthology presents a selection of poems that reflect a wide range of themes influenced by Canadian life and landscape, while also embracing universal emotions and experiences. The collection includes works that celebrate nature, love for one's homeland, and broader existential reflections, showcasing the depth and variety of Canadian poetic expression. The opening of the anthology sets the stage for exploring the rich tapestry of Canadian poetry, emphasizing that the selected verse does not exclusively focus on Canadian themes but rather aims to resonate with a universal audience. Rand notes that the verse represents various aspects of nature's beauty and the human experience, invoking a spirit of inspiration drawn from both the natural environment and individual emotions. The preface conveys a strong sense of national pride and the intent to curate a collection that invites appreciation both from Canadians and English-speaking readers worldwide. Through this careful selection of poetry, Rand hopes to highlight the unique voice of Canadian poets and their contributions to the art of verse. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
