Description
This anthology of 17th-century English poetry is extensively annotated for a new generation of readers. It combines the scope of a period anthology with the detailed annotations of an authoritative single-author edition. Selected poets include John Donne, George Herbert, Robert Herrick, John Milton, Andrew Marvell, Lady Mary Wroth and Katherine Philips. The salient features include detailed annotations following on from each poem and a concise biographical essay for each poet, outlining the literary and historical context and the critical reception of their work.
