The Canterbury Tales

Goeffrey Chaucer

The Canterbury Tales

Begun as an ambitious project by the versatile English courtier, diplomat, philosopher, and author Geoffrey Chaucer in the 14th century, «The Canterbury Tales» follows a group of people on their pilgrimage to the Cathedral of Saint Thomas á Becket. The Prologue introduces all of the pilgrims in great detail, and through these descriptions Chaucer provides the entire spectrum of social classes and professions of his time. When the group stops at an inn and the innkeeper introduces a competition...

The Collected Poetry of D. H. Lawrence

D. H. Lawrence was an English writer who, unfortunately, only truly became accepted as a literary genius after his death in 1930. While he was best known for his novels and short stories like «Lady Chatterly's Lover,» «Sons and Lovers,» and «The Captain's Doll,» Lawrence was also an adept poet who wrote over 800 poems during his lifetime. At the beginning of his career, his poems were infused with pathetic fallacy and continual personification of flora and fauna. Like many of the...

The Road Not Taken and Other Poems

Robert Frost

The Road Not Taken and Other Poems

Winner of four Pulitzer Prizes for his poetry, Robert Frost is best remembered for his depictions of early 20th century rural New England life and for his command of American colloquial speech. Criticized by some as being out of touch with the Modernist movement in poetry exemplified by contemporaries such as T. S. Eliot and E. E. Cummings, it is probably in fact his adherence to traditionalism that so endeared him to his fans. Literary critic Randall Jarrell described Frost as one of “the...

The Sonnets (Annotated by Henry N. Hudson with an Introduction by Charles Harold Herford)

First published in 1609, “The Sonnets” of William Shakespeare are a collection of 154 loosely connected 14 line poems. Considered by many to be among some of the greatest love poetry ever written much debate surrounds the context of the poetry. It has been suggested that the work may be semi-autobiographical but no real evidence firmly supports this notion. The themes of the poems contained within this volume are varied and include such subjects as the passage of time, love, beauty, and...

Scarecrow

Robert Fernandez

Scarecrow

Taking Dante and other catalogers of failure and ruin (Baudelaire, Trakl, Rimbaud) as its guiding lights, Scarecrow charts situations of extremity and madness: «Are you / insistent? Are you dead? / Are you guilty? Has your / name been lifted, a vein / of earth from earth?» It also charts the insistence of time's passing and with it the awakening to both new and foreclosed possibilities. What will remain for us after the disaster? How will we rebuild? To whom will we address...

The Dream in the Next Body

Gabeba Baderoon

The Dream in the Next Body

Gabeba Baderoon’s debut poetry collection attempts to probe the realm of the unsaid and the ripples that move between words, between people, between bodies. Sometimes the verses trace and explore details that have brought the poet to, in her own words, «arrested instants of loss or witness that break open the surface of the world». It is a collection of poems that brings one to be silent, to be still. By writing the author attempts to «see again». Like «when we are about to fall asleep … and the...

Odes and Sonnets

Clark Ashton Smith

Odes and Sonnets

Long before the association with «Weird Tales» magazine and H.P. Lovecraft that led to his enduring fame, Clark Ashton Smith was a well-regarded regional poet whose tastes ran to the romantic and the fantastic. This collection of poems – originally published in 1918 – presents some of his best early work.

Christle finds striking parallels between subjects as varied as the fate of...

Ode to the West Wind and Other Poems

In the pantheon of English poets, Shelley has long occupied a lofty place, his poems as admired for their profound thought and subtle perceptions as for the music and fervor of their language. His life as well as his poetry embraced the passions, ideals, and causes of Romanticism, whose emergence and early influences coincided with the dates of his own brief life (1792-1822). This selection of many of Shelley’s best-known and most representative poems will give readers an exciting...

"Easter 1916" and Other Poems

William Butler Yeats

"Easter 1916" and Other Poems

"A terrible beauty is born," observed the greatest modern Irish poet after his country's 1916 Easter Rebellion against the British. This streak of proud nationalism, interwoven with elements of Celtic lore and mysticism, and infused with a hard-earned wisdom, makes Yeats's works resonate to this day. His career spanned five decades, earning him the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1923, and he is widely regarded as the finest English-language poet of the twentieth century.This volume...
