'Romanticism', though a debated term, is broadly understood as a
cultural movement which gripped the European imagination in the
late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. Embodying a poetics
of feeling intersecting with nature and the notion of the sublime,
its experiential aesthetics were furthermore bound up with ideas of
personal and political rebellion. Michael Ferber's lively anthology
includes lesser-known verse from the best-known poets, as well as a
few fine poems by little-known poets. Perfect for readers who would
like to enjoy the many riches of arguably poetry's greatest era, or
for those already familiar with the poets but who would welcome
some happy surprises, this varied international selection includes
verse translated from six languages, with several poems appearing
in the original language alongside its translation. This engaging
selection features concise, informative headnotes and a helpful
introduction that charts a course to understanding the Romantic
movement as a whole.
