Song of Myself

Walt Whitman

Song of Myself

Considered by many to be the quintessential American poet, Walt Whitman (1819-92) exerted a profound influence on all the American poets who came after him. And it was with this inspired, oceanic medley, «Song of Myself» (which in the first editions of Leaves of Grass was still nameless), that this great poet first made himself known to the world.Readers familiar with the later, more widely published versions of Leaves of Grass will find this first version of «Song of Myself» new, surprising,...

Songs of Innocence and of Experience

The simple and beautiful eloquence of William Blake's poetry is exemplified here in «Songs of Innocence and of Experience.» This collection of forty-six poems is actually two volumes in one. After first completing and publishing «Songs of Innocence» in 1789 Blake would, some five years later, add «Songs of Experience» to the volume in an effort to show «the two contrary states of the human soul.»

Sonnets to Orpheus

Sonnets to Orpheus

Rainer Maria Rilke’s fifty-five Sonnets to Orpheus were written over a few days in an astonishing burst of inspiration. Described by Rilke himself as “a spontaneous inner dictation,” the sequence is among the most famous works of modernist literature, and Christiane Marks’s fresh new translations succeed in evoking Rilke’s music—often sacrificed in translation—opening a new window on these poems, for old and new Rilke lovers alike. The result of nearly two decades of...

Spirits in Bondage: A Cycle of Lyrics

Published under the pseudonym, Clive Hamilton, Spirits in Bondage was C. S. Lewis' first book, released in 1919. Most of the poems appear to have been written between 1915 and 1918, a period during which Lewis was a student under W. T. Kirkpatrick, a military trainee at Oxford, and a soldier serving in the trenches of World War I. Their outlook varies from Romantic expressions of love for the beauty and simplicity of nature to cynical statements about the presence of evil in this world.

The Aeneid

"The Aeneid" is considered by some to be one of the most important epic poems of all time. The story is as much one of the great epic hero, Aeneas, as it is of the foundation of the great Roman Empire.

Virgil's Aeneid is a story of great adventure, of war, of love, and of the exploits of a great epic hero. In the work Virgil...
