Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Century of Greek Epigrams: Done Into English Verse The Greek epigram as it appears in Mr. Mackail's pages, and in a lesser degree in what follows, throws a ood of light upon Greek life and thought, through many centuries. In its intimacy and directness it is like the snap-shots of our amateur photographers it leads one into sympathy with the early archwologist wandering near the sites of dead cities, with the sailors tossing on the rough nean, and honouring the tombs of their lost comrades with the cares and the sorrows of the old fisher-folk, with the simple joy of the Greek in the groves, the mountain meadows and the fountain; with the fun which they could make of their gods, and with their ques tions on the deeper issues of life.

Book excerpt: A major addition to the literature of poetry, Edward Hirsch’s sparkling new work is a compilation of forms, devices, groups, movements, isms, aesthetics, rhetorical terms, and folklore—a book that all readers, writers, teachers, and students of poetry will return to over and over. Hirsch has delved deeply into the poetic traditions of the world, returning with an inclusive, international compendium. Moving gracefully from the bards of ancient Greece to the revolutionaries of Latin America, from small formal elements to large mysteries, he provides thoughtful definitions for the most important poetic vocabulary, imbuing his work with a lifetime of scholarship and the warmth of a man devoted to his art. Knowing how a poem works is essential to unlocking its meaning. Hirsch’s entries will deepen readers’ relationships with their favorite poems and open greater levels of understanding in each new poem they encounter. Shot through with the enthusiasm, authority, and sheer delight that made How to Read a Poem so beloved, A Poet’s Glossary is a new classic.
