The following information is about Elegy.
Elegy Defined
A poem of lament, praise, and consolation, usually formal and sustained, over the death of a particular person; also, a meditative poem in plaintive or sorrowful mood, such as, " Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard," by Thomas Gray.
Sidelight: The pastoral elegy became conventional in the Renaissance and continued into the 19th century. Traditionally, pastoral elegies included an invocation, a lament in which all nature joined, praise, sympathy, and a closing consolation, as in John Milton's Lycidas.

- Elegy for a rubber stamp: I've heard some dismiss criticism of Russert as nitpicking at faults of someone who could not be perfect -- after all, none of us can be. But Russert repeated falsehoods in his questions, accepted them from guests, long after they were debunked. A disservice.
