Description - The Routledge Anthology of Poets on Poets by David Hopkins
This anthology collects together writings by all the major poetic figures from Chaucer to Yeats and demonstrates their responses to each other, ranging from elegiac eulogy to burlesque and satire. The collection is arranged in two sections. Part 1 contains poets' writings on the nature, qualities and purpose of poetry, while Part 2 is a chronological collection of poets' writings on their peers, with an individual entry for each poet. Each extract is presented in modernized spelling and punctuation, and is carefully annotated to provide full explanations of unfamiliar phrases and references. The index has been fully revised for this paperback edition. This collection should appeal to anyone interested in the history of English poetry. It also provides primary source material for students and their teachers.
