What was the appeal of 'the Sonnet's scanty plot of ground' to Romantic and Victorian poets?

Few fictional characters have proved as popular as Sherlock Holmes. By retelling Arthur Conan Doyle's beloved stories in film adaptations, each generation re-creates Baker Street's most famous detective in its own image.

This book contains the twelve stories identified by Conan Doyle himself as being the quintessential Holmes adventures.
The Collected Works of Gerard Manley Hopkins
Gerard Manley Hopkins was not only one of the most gifted Victorian poets, he was a compelling diarist who used his journals for everything from daily to-do lists to the most intimate spiritual self-assessments. This volume represents Hopkins as a man of extremes, both emotionally and psychologically. There are mundane memoranda about neckties to purchase or letters to write, but also exacting revisions of poems. There are entries of quiet rapture, his attentioncaught by the beauty of the natural world. Paintings, sculptures, and works of literature are stringently assessed, his aesthetic principles freely exercised. There are also nightmares relived;undergraduate 'sins' unsparingly recorded; 'signs' of heavenly mercy carefully noted. This is the first unexpurgated edition of all extant diaries. The entries extend from September 1863, during his second term at Oxford, until February 1875, while studying theology as a Jesuit in his beloved Wales, and from February 1884 until July 1885, while Hopkins was living at a 'third remove' in Dublin.
