  Thomas Carew - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In August 1618 his father died, and Carew entered the service of Edward Herbert, Baron Herbert of Cherbury, in whose train he travelled to France in March 1619, and it is believed that he remained with Herbert until his return to England, at the close of his diplomatic missions, in April 1624.
Carew "followed the court before he was of it," not receiving the definite commitment of the chamber until 1628.
While Carew held this office, he displayed his tact and presence of mind by stumbling and extinguishing the candle he was holding to light Charles I into the queen's chamber, because he saw that Lord St Albans had his arm round her majesty's neck.

Thomas Carew, who came of the Cornish branch of the Carew family, was the younger son of Sir Matthew Carew, master in Chancery, and of Alice, daughter of Sir John Rivers, a lord mayor of London.
Carew’s love-poems are not always free from that hyperbole which was then the fashion; and, in his Elegy upon the Death of Dr. Donne, admiration for his hero leads him to imitate the discordia concors of that masterful genius.
Carew has been described as the founder of the school of courtly amorous poetry; but it seems probable that, if we could place the Hesperides poems in their due chronological order, the prestige of priority would rightly belong to Herrick.

 Life of Thomas Carew (1594?-1640)
From 1613 to 1616 Carew served as secretary to Sir Dudley Carleton on embassies to Italy and the Netherlands.
Yet he translated nine of the Psalms and wrote one of the finest elegies of the period: "An Elegy on the Death of the Dean of St. Paul's Dr. John Donne." It isa solemn tribute to Donne's contribution to English poetry and the English Language.

Thomas Carew's precise date of birth is unknown - he was probably born in the year between June 1594 and June 1595.
Carew is recorded as matriculating at the University of Oxford in an entry dated 10th June 1608, where he is described as “militis fil.” (his father appears to have been knighted in 1603) and his age is given as 13.
Carew's love poetry, like that of all poets of his time, has to be understood in the context of the still prevailing Petrarchanism of the day.

Carew's response to Jonson and Donne.(poets Thomas Carew, Ben Jonson and John Donne)
Thomas Carew's verses that were written to Ben Jonson and his elegy addressed to John Donne should be analyzed in their original form and in the poetic styles of their times.
Carew, whose style of prose is often described as a mixture of both Jonson and Donne, should be viewed instead as a contemporary and rival of the two masters.

Indeed Carew's simultaneous imitation and praise reveals his quite un-Donnean, Jonsonian neoclassicism, since the model for his strategy is Horace's panegyric imitation of the great original poet Pindar, whom Horace imitates in the course of claiming inimitable (Ode 4.2.1-27).
Carew's elegy is not an overtly political poem--in the narrower sense--and it seems improbable that we are likely to reach much beyond a general sense of this complex poem's oblique relation to the complexities of its political context.
Thomas Docherty, in his John Donne, Undone, published in 1986, uncovered an unintelligible Donne, "releas[ing] Donne's texts into their full obscurity."[70] But Docherty's theory-led approach, at once too powerful and too undiscriminating, could be and has been deployed, with minor adjustments, to undo any writer.

Carew is careful to observe that Jonson's achievement is uneven; that the work of his later years cannot always measure up to what went before: “.
Similarly, Carew's elegy on Donne, in its adoption of much in its subject's own manner and in the remarkable assurance of its conception and execution, displays a critical (and creative) alertness which ironically undercuts the poem's own rhetorical strategy in its claim that with Donne's death his successors are left with “no voice, no tune”.
Carew displays a perceptive sense of recent literary history and an impressive skill in the art of serious parody.

Thomas Carew did not live to see the death of this "brave Prince of Cavaliers," as Robert Herrick called him, for Carew died in March, 1640--a symbolic date, for that was the very spring when Charles was forced to reconvene Parliament after his eleven years of personal rule.
Carew is referring here to a pastoral comedy written by his friend Walter Montagu, played (with splendid scenery and costumes) by Queen Henrietta Maria and her Ladies on January 9, 1633, and apparently repeated on February 2, 1633.
Carew's admiration for his master, Ben Jonson, is no empty adulation, as we may see from the remarkable poem that Carew wrote to Ben on the occasion of his poetical father's outrageous exhibition of bad temper when the public hissed his play, The New Inn, off the stage in 1629.

Carew wrote a verse-letter to Jonson called, 'Upon occasion of his ode of defiance annext to his Play of the new Inn.' Jonson's play had been poorly received and when the text was published he added a bizarre and semi-serious note to the text explaining that the actors had messed it up[8].

Though Carew's "Elegy" on Donne is written in a simple form (rhyming iambic pentameter couplets), Carew works many variations on the meter, changing the rhythm to suit the subject matter of each line.
Note that Carew is mourning Donne both as a poet and as a famous preacher, a clergyman known for his beautifully-written and brilliantly-delivered sermons.
He expresses (in verse) his doubt that any good poem can be written in the wake of Donne's passing; and he is not even sure that the "Dry" prose of some other "churchman['s]" funeral sermon can compose words worthy of the deceased.

The poems show a grace and clarity of expression; however, for the most part they are rather complacent in atttitude--in them we find none of the deepr conflicts that mark the religious poetry of other writers in his generation.
Carew (1594/5-1640) both praised Jonson for his successful use of the ancient classics and paid tribute to Donne as the poet who "ruled as he thought fit / the universal monarchy of wit." His work is thus influenced in some measure by both poets.
In combining the classical influence of Jonson with the metaphysical influence of Donne, Carew created a mixture that can be considered especially suited to the atmosphere of the court of Charles I: a dignified voluptuousness, an exquisite elegance.
