Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book gathers 19th-century American poetry to narrate the nation's development through its literature. The author, a professor of English, provides explanatory notes and critical commentary to contextualize the poems and their meanings. The collection begins with Philip Freneau, who wrote during the fervor of the American Revolution, and ends with the Civil War era. Along with the major poets and their iconic works (Bryant, Emerson, Poe, Longfellow, and others), this book introduces noteworthy poets of the day such as Albert Gorton Greene, whose The Baron's Last Banquet is as gripping as Poe's The Raven. The author's substantial introduction helpfully frames the development of American poetry against the nation's cultural backdrop. This inclusive and educational collection of American poetry invites readers and scholars alike to revisit familiar classics, discover neglected gems, and chart the evolution of American ideals through verse.
