A hugely welcome addition to Penguin's poetry list, this book celebrates the imaginative power of an extraordinary period. Organised by theme, and to some extent by genre, this landmark anthology gives readers a sense both of the period as it unfolds and of the power and versatility of individual poets. A fascinating introduction places the period in its historical context, calls attention to previously neglected areas of the period's output and clears away many of the hackneyed cliches about Romanticism.
