Autor

Sir Charles George Douglas Roberts, KCMG FRSC (1860 – 1943), was a distinguished Canadian poet and prose writer. He is often referred to as the 'Father of Canadian Poetry' for his influence in ushering the dawn of Canadian verse in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Born in Douglas, New Brunswick, Roberts was not just a poet but a prolific writer, having penned numerous works that include poetry, novels, and essays. One notable work, 'Songs of the Common Day, and, Ave!: An Ode for the Shelley Centenary' reflects his mastery in capturing the subtleties of natural landscapes and embodying them within traditional poetic forms. Although firmly rooted in the romantic tradition, Roberts's work heralds a nascent national literary identity, intertwining the Canadian experience with broader human themes. His literary style often embraced a meticulous attention to detail and a devout appreciation for the natural world, providing a lens through which readers could glimpse the majesty of Canada's wilderness. Roberts was a trailblazer of his era, and his works have left an indelible mark on the fabric of Canadian literature and have continued to be studied and celebrated for their significant contributions to the nation's cultural heritage.
