简介："British Poets of the first forty years of this century - poets whom the literary establishment has placed behind Thomas Hardy, W. B. Yeats, and T. S. Eliot, in reputation more than in skill - have inherited much of the formers' attention: Wilfred Owen, Edward Thomas, Robert Graves, D. H. Lawrence, H. D., Edith Sitwell, Stevie Smith, W. H. Auden, Dylan Thomas, Edwin Muir, and Louis McNeice. In his comprehensive analysis of this prolific and dramatic period in the composition of verse, James Persoon discuses the important works of these artists as well as those of Britain's lesser known poets." "Persoon insists on the centrality of war in considering British poetry of this period, using the awareness of war in British life as his primary metaphor."--BOOK JACKET.

简介：John Steinbeck Ernest Hemingway and William Faulkner are generally recognized as the most influential American novelists of the 20th century. Their careers paralleled one another in significant ways -- two of their fledgling poems coincidentally appeared in the same avant-garde little magazine; they died a year apart, almost to the day; each won the Nobel Prize. It is as much biography as critique, a short, happy reference work that sometimes tells more about the commentators than their subjects. Among the writers on the writers, there is Sherwood Anderson, Gertrude Stein, Alice B. Toklas, Conrad Aiken, W. H. Auden, John Dos Passos, Ezra Pound, T. S. Eliot, and many others. This book is not only a valuable addition to literary scholarship, it is also a unique re-creation of an era in American culture.

简介：　　The writers include Blake, Dickinson, Tennyson, Yeats, Wordsworth, and Keats. The captivating paintings by Simona Mulazanni make every page a delight. And the subject--animals, big and small, wild and tame-- has an irresistible appeal to children. William Blake's "The Tyger" burns bright in the lush image that accompanies the verse. Hillaire Belloc pays tribute to an elephant in a short, witty stanza accompanied by an adorable picture of the creature sitting on a small wood stool. Among the other poems are Marianne Moore's "A Jellyfish" and Edward Lear's charming, songlike "The Owl and the Pussycat." "A Selection of Scholastic Book Clubs." John Hollander has written "A Crackling of Thorns" (chosen by W. H. Auden for the Yale Series of Younger Poets), as well as literary criticism and children's books. He has served as editor for many poetry collections, among them "An Anthology of Poems for Young People" (with Harold Bloom). He is currently the Sterling Professor of English at Yale. Simona Mulazanni is a successful and much loved children's book artist in Italy.

简介：Summary: Publisher Summary 1 Argues that the Huxley (1894-1963) who predicted Brave New World and the Auden (1907-73) who predicted The Age of Anxiety shared a belief that the language they used was the representation of all previous and current human knowledge of what people have come to comprehend about themselves and their universe. The human being as amphibian, the crowd mentality and the public, the poet as a miner excavating raw materials, and awe derived from the mystical vision of Eros evolving into Agape are among the themes pursued.

简介：Written over the last thirty years, this collection of Professor Peter Verdonk's most important work on the stylistics of poetry clearly shows that the stylistics of poetic discourse is a diverse and valuable interdiscipline. Discussing the poetry of Auden, Heaney and Larkin amongst many others, Verdonk covers everything from intrinsic textual meaning and external context in its widest sense to the reader's cognitive and emotive response to poems. The book will appeal to all students on stylistics and literary linguistics courses, especially those focussing on poetry and poetic language.

简介：　　The Lord of the Rings, J.R.R. Tolkien's three-volume epic, is set in the imaginary world of Middle-earth - home to many strange beings, and most notably hobbits, a peace-loving "little people," cheerful and shy. Since its original British publication in 1954-55, the saga has entranced readers of all ages. It is at once a classic myth and a modern fairy tale. Critic Michael Straight has hailed it as one of the "very few works of genius in recent literature." Middle-earth is a world receptive to poets, scholars, children, and all other people of good will. Donald Barr has described it as "a scrubbed morning world, and a ringing nightmare world...especially sunlit, and shadowed by perils very fundamental, of a peculiarly uncompounded darkness." The story of ths world is one of high and heroic adventure. Barr compared it to Beowulf, C.S. Lewis to Orlando Furioso, W.H. Auden to The Thirty-nine Steps. In fact the saga is sui generis - a triumph of imagination which springs to life within its own framework and on its own terms.
