A very good collection of poetry

This collection of John Donne's work displays his wide range of knowledge, wit, emotion and cynicism. All tempered well with his clever understanding and delivery of his pastorals.



The poetry of John Donne, Andrew Marvell, George Herbert, Robert Herrick, Richard Crashaw, Henry Vaughan, and Thomas Traherne has fascinated critics for centuries. Ambivalently received but inescapably influential, their tradition can be traced through some of the best poets of our time. Examine these 17th-century English poets more closely.

This title, John Donne and 17th Century Poets, part of Chelsea House Publishers? Modern Critical Views series, examines the major works of John Donne and 17th Century Poets through full-length critical essays by expert literary critics. In addition, this title features a short biography on John Donne and 17th Century Poets, a chronology of the author?s life, and an introductory essay written by Harold Bloom, Sterling Professor of the Humanities, Yale University.
