«Sixteenth-Century Poetry» is the anthology of Elizabethan poetry, selected by Paul Driver, published by Penguin Classics in paperback (128 pp., in English).
English poetry of the sixteenth century reflects the transition from a feudal society to a modern nation; the selection brings together celebrated names such as Shakespeare and Donne alongside lesser-known poets like Wyatt and Surrey. Love, death, religious devotion and political affairs coexist in verses of great variety of styles and tones.
Published in 1996; part of Penguin Popular Poetry, also referenced as Penguin Popular Classics.
William Wordsworth was an English Romantic poet who, with Samuel Taylor Coleridge, helped to launch the Romantic Age in English literature with their joint publication Lyrical Ballads (1798).
