Course of English Poetry

Originally published in 1929, this book was written to provide younger readers with a broadly chronological course on English poetry, from Beowulf through to the early twentieth century. It was planned around the principle of combining the study of three elements normally given separate treatment in poetic analysis: form, spirit and history.
