As the other volumes do, this one considers British poetry to include that written by English, Irish, Scottish, and Welsh poets. Entries address a number of topics, including poets, individual poems, themes important to the period’s poetry (such as carpe diem), genres and forms important in the period (such asthe elegy, aubade, and ballad), and poetic groups and movements (including the Cavalier poets and the Tribe of Ben) . The selection of poets and poems covered in the volume was based on their appearance in highschool and college anthologies and textbooks. In addition, other less popular poems were chosen for their historical, cultural, or aesthetic significance. Entries avoid difficult jargon, making this work accessible to students of literature and general readers, but the aim of this book is to provide not only basic information but also appropriate critical commentary.  \nThe 17th and 18th centuries were a particularly fruitful time for poetry, but not all of the impressive poems of the period could be included here. Readers will, however, find generous, although not comprehensive, selections by all of the better known poets of these centuries, such as Ben Jonson, John Milton, John Donne, John Dryden, George Herbert, Alexander Pope,  \nand Jonathan Swift. Their notable contemporaries are also included, though not quite as extensively. As for the time frame covered by this volume, the work of some poets spills from the end of the 18th century into the 19th century and the beginning of the Victorian age, reflecting the influences and conflict of their day. Arbitrarily designed periods and labels are useful insetting boundaries for reference works. However, they do little to confine poets and their thoughts; thus a smattering of poems published","cbCaibj9YrYRJvRN","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaibj9YrYRJvRN","pdf",3005906,497,"English","# Introduction\n## How to Use This Book\n## A-to-Z Entries\n## Appendix I: Glossary\n## Appendix II: Selected Bibliography\n## Index","[{\"question\":\"What kinds of entries are included in the A-to-Z sections?\",\"answer\":\"Entries cover poets, individual poems, important themes, key genres and forms, and poetic groups and movements from the period.\"},{\"question\":\"How were poets and poems selected for this volume?\",\"answer\":\"Selection relied on their presence in common anthologies and textbooks, supplemented by other less popular poems chosen for historical, cultural, or aesthetic significance.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the book handle quotations and line references?\",\"answer\":\"Quotations keep original spellings when they do not hinder understanding; shorter quotes use slashes to separate lines, longer or emphasized passages appear in block form.
