Preview English Poetry. Volume II. From Collins to Fitzgerald

Description:
The aim in these three volumes of English Poetry has been to give, as far as the limits of space allowed, a substantial representation of the most distinguished poets of England and America for the last five hundred years. Among previous anthologies an especially wide recognition has been given by the best judges to Francis Turner Palgraves Golden Treasury of the Best Songs and Lyrical Poems in the English Language, first published in 1861; and it has been thought best to make that collection the nucleus of the present one. All the poems originally selected by Mr. Palgrave have, accordingly, been retained, with the exception of those by Milton and Burns, which appear in the Harvard Classics in the complete editions of the poetical works of these two authors.Contents: William Collins; George Sewell; Alison Cockburn; Jan Elliot; John Logan; Samuel Johnson; Oliver Goldsmith; William Cowper; Anna Babbauld; Carolina Oliphant; Anne Hunter; William Blake; Robert Tannanill; William Wordsworth; Samuel Taylor Coleridge; Sir Walter Scott; Thomas Campbell; George Gordon, Lord Byron; Thomas Moore; Percy Bysshe Shelley; John Keats; Walter Savage Landor; Thomas Hood; Hartley Coleridge; Elizabeth Barrett Browning; Edward Fitzgerald.
