Description

The Penguin Book of Romantic Poetry brings together some of the most iconic and lesser-known poems from this pivotal moment in literary history. Spanning over 1056 pages, this collection showcases the full range of Romantic voices, from the celebrated works of Blake, Coleridge, and Shelley to the often-overlooked verse of women poets like Charlotte Smith and Mary Robinson. As you explore this vast anthology, you'll encounter poems that showcase the genre's characteristic blend of emotion, imagination, and a deep connection to nature. You'll also discover unexpected facets of familiar poets, as they reveal their lighter side or delve into darker, more surreal territories. With its authoritative text, introduction, and notes from distinguished scholars, this edition is an essential resource for anyone interested in understanding the Romantic movement. For over 70 years, Penguin has been a leading publisher of classic literature, offering readers trusted editions that provide a rich and nuanced reading experience.
