Rezension bezieht sich auf: Six Centuries of Great Poetry: A Stunning Collection of Classic British Poems from Chaucer to Yeats (Taschenbuch) If you want a good collection of "famous" English poetry, but don't want to spring for the pricey "New Oxford Book of English Verse," this is a very good choice. It's acceptably thick (589 pages), and covers over 120 poets. The editors allot 10-30 pages each to the big names, so you get a good overview of their work. The book has a good-sized, attractive typeface, and is well-indexed.
Drawbacks are minor, but include its age. It was published in 1955, and includes almost no 20th century poets, women, or minorities. There's no biographical or critical data, just the poems themselves. But as a resource for classics, this is a great collection, and a real bargain.
