Produktbeschreibung
This book presents a comprehensive exploration of British poetry, tracing its evolution from the early Anglo-Saxon period to the postmodern and contemporary era. It examines major literary movements, poetic forms, and critical transformations across centuries, providing a structured overview of how British verse has responded to social, political, and philosophical changes. Beginning with Old English epics like Beowulf, and advancing through Chaucer's Middle English innovations, the Renaissance and Elizabethan flourish, the metaphysical and neoclassical intricacies, to the emotional intensity of Romanticism and the moral complexity of Victorian verse, the book systematically unpacks the layered legacy of British poetic tradition. Special attention is given to key poetic figures, such as Shakespeare, Donne, Wordsworth, Tennyson, Eliot, and contemporary voices like Carol Ann Duffy and Kae Tempest. Each chapter delves into thematic and stylistic developments, including the role of poetic form, meter, diction, and imagery, alongside the evolving role of the poet in society.
