This thematic guide offers interpretations of 415 poems,
representing the work of over 110 poets spanning seven centuries of
British poetry. Educators teaching thematic units will find
relevant essays appropriate for background presentation, discussion
ideas, or student assignments. This book is clearly organized for
easy access to information, whatever the users' individual
purposes.
The main section of the guide contains narrative essays on 29
alphabetically arranged themes that recur throughout the history of
British poetry. Explications of individual poems are arranged
chronologically to trace the evolution of a particular theme over
time. Following each entry, the poems are listed with information
about the anthologies where the works can be found. Additional
suggested readings make this the perfect resource for research and
classroom use, and as an indispensable tool for librarians
assisting readers to identify poets, access their works, and better
understand the thematic meanings of poetry.
