Product Description
Synopsis
The metaphysical poets of the early 17th century produced a body of work that is among the most read and studied verse in English literature. Dramatic and conversational in rhythm and tone, intriguing and complex in theme and idea, and rich in striking, unusual imagery, metaphysical poetry proved enduringly popular and exerted a major influence on many 20th-century poets. This modestly priced anthology contains the best work by the major poets of the school: John Donne, Andrew Marvell, George Herbert, Henry Vaughan, Richard Crashaw, Francis Quarles, Thomas Traheme, and others. Included are such masterpieces as Donne's "The Good Morrow" and "Death, Be Not Proud"; Marvell's "The Garden" and "To His Coy Mistress"; Herbert's "Easter Wings"; Vaughan's "The World"; and many more. Ideal for classroom use, high school through college, this outstanding inexpensive anthology will appeal to any lover of English poetry.
