Andrew Cecil Bradley's enlightened and in-depth Oxford lectures on poetry are complete in this new edition, perfect for students or enthusiasts of poetry and literature.
First published in 1909, this superb selection of lectures explains the nature, style and influences of several prominent European poets from the Renaissance, Enlightenment and Romantic eras. William Shakespeare is analysed and discussed extensively, as is William Wordsworth, Mary Shelley and others. Other, more general lectures supplement those about specific works and authors, providing the reader with insight into the construction and art of verse literature.
Brimming with incisive comment and thoughts about the essential expression embodied in poetry, this volume is intended to stimulate and spark curiosity in poetry lovers. For experienced readers, Bradley's lectures may provide ample reason to revisit the works examined, while those new to poetry will find a superb introduction to some of the finest persons to have ever entered the craft.
Authoritative and relevant more than a century after their compilation and publication in book form, this anthology of lectures demonstrates the finest academic traditions practised in Oxford University.
