An alarming number of undergraduate and graduate students do not have sufficient background in classical literature to interpret, let alone understand, the influence of Greek and Latin poetry upon that in English. This book presents the work of British, Irish and Caribbean writers--including Chaucer, Spenser, Marlowe, Shakespeare, Donne, Milton, Marvell, Dryden, Swift, Pope, Cowper, Coleridge, Shelley, Keats, Housman, Yeats, Auden, Walcot and Heaney--with influential passages from such classical writers as Homer, Sophocles, Thucydides, Plato, Catallus, Virgil, Horace, Ovid, Pliny the Elder, Lucan, Martial and Juvenal. The editors provide biographies for each author, comprehensive cross-reference tables, lists of authors, and lists of titles. The result is also valuable for advanced readers seeking specific references. Annotation ©2007 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
