A propos de cet article

[4], 186, [2], pages. 4.5 x 8.25 x .4 inches dimensions. Illustrations. Index of Authors. Small front edge tear to first two pages. Cover has some wear and soiling. Fully indexed by title, author, and first line, this much-loved collection, in print since 1916, is a wide-ranging collection of the best-known English language poets, from William Shakespeare to Robert Frost, from Percy Bysshe Shelley to Edna St. Vincent Millay. From Preface - This is the age of science, of steel--of speed and the cement road. The age of hard faces and hard highways. Science and steel demand the medium of prose. Speed requires only the look--the gesture. What need then, for poetry? Great need! There are souls, in these noise-tired times, that turn aside into unfrequented lanes, where the deep woods have harbored the fragrances of many a blossoming season. Here the light, filtering through perfect forms, arranges itself in lovely patterns for those who perceive beauty. It is the purpose of this little volume to enrich, ennoble, encourage. And for man, who has learned to love convenience, it is hardly larger than his concealing pocket. While not the first edition, this is an increasing rare early revised edition. This treasury of beloved poems collects all your favorite poets in one book. Whether you’re looking for a love poem or something to mend a broken heart, perhaps you’re feeling patriotic or struggling to understand the nature of man, the timeless words of Shakespeare, Emily Dickinson, John Milton, and Dante Gabriel Rossetti are at your fingertips. From the Romantic poets like Percy Bysshe Shelley and John Keats to the Transcendentalists like Ralph Waldo Emerson, this comprehensive collection contains examples of the many periods of writing from England to Scotland and on to the United States. Included are such favorites as: Walt Whitman’s O Captain! My Captain!; Eugene Field’s Little Boy Blue; Percy Bysshe Shelley’s To a Skylark; Joyce Kilmer’s Trees; Robert Burns’ Letter to a Young Friend; Henry Wadsworth Longfellow’s Paul Revere’s Ride; Edgar Allan Poe’s The Raven; Three indices let you find your favorite poems by title, author, and first line. Revised Edition. Presumed first printing thus.…
