A time of political and social unrest in England, this period
produced some of the greatest poetry in English. This volume
includes the major poets John Donne, Ben Jonson, George Herbert,
John Milton, and Andrew Marvell the major women writers of the era
Aemilia Lanyer, Mary Wroth, Anne Bradstreet, Margaret Cavendish,
and Katherine Philips and nineteen other poets essential to an
understanding of English literature in the seventeenth century. The
poems are accompanied by headnotes and explanatory annotations.
"Criticism" is divided into two sections. The first, "Seventeenth-
and Eighteenth-Century Criticism," includes commentary by
contemporary poets and biographers, among them Ben Jonson, John
Dryden, and Samuel Johnson. The second, "Recent Criticism," brings
together twenty critical examinations of the period and its poets,
including essays by T. S. Eliot, Janel Mueller, Aldous Huxley, W.
H. Auden, Joseph Summers, Laurence Babb, Gerald Hammond, Eavan
Boland, Leah Marcus, and William Kerrigan. A Selected Biography is
also included."
