With contributions from over 100 scholars, the Encyclopedia of American Poetry: The Nineteenth Centry provides essays on the careers, works, and backgrounds of more than 100 nineteenth-century poets. It also provides entries on specialized categories of twentieth-century verse such as hymns, folk ballads, spirituals, Civil War songs, and Native American poetry. Besides presenting essential factual information, each entry amounts to an in-depth critical essay, and includes a bibliography that directs readers to other works by and about a particular poet.

The Encyclopedia of American Poetry: The Twentieth Century contains over 400 entries that treat a broad range of individual poets and poems, along with many articles devoted to topics, schools, or periods of American verse in the century. Entries fall into three main categories: poet entries, which provide biographical and cultural contexts for the author's career; entries on individual works, which offer closer explication of the most resonant poems in the 20th-century canon; and topical entries, which offer analyses of a given period of literary production, school, thematically constructed category, or other verse tradition that historically has been in dialogue with the poetry of the United States.

Excerpt from Encyclopaedia of English and American Poetry, From Caedmon and King Alfred's Boethius to Browning and Tennyson: Containing Nearly Two Thousand of the Best Pieces in the English Language; With Sketches of the History of the Poetry of Our Country, and Biographical Notices of Five Hundred of the Poets If it was difficult to deal with the enormous amount of English verse written up to the end of the last century, the task became infinitely harder as our own times were approached. The rights of property in the works of the living and dead had to be respected, and the law of copyright considered. In all cases where we discovered the existence of these rights, application was made to the poet or his representatives for permission to print the desired quotations. In nearly every instance the permission was kindly granted and we Specially have to thank Mr. Strahan for his very generous reply to our requests also Messrs. Macmillan and Messrs. Moxon, besides many other publishers, for their courtesy, as well as Messrs. \varne Co. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Fireside Encyclopedia of Poetry: Comprising the Best Poems of the Most Famous Writers, English and American Nine years ago this month this work was commenced, principally to While away the long fall and winter evenings, which threatened to hang heavy on the Editor's hands, and, though laid aside for months at a time, it has been a labor of love ever since; and now it is with feelings akin to those felt at parting with an old and valued friend that he pens these prefatory lines, which mark the completion of his task.

Often thought of as the quintessential poet of New England, Robert Frost is one of the most widely read American poets of the 20th century. He was a master of poetic form and imagery, his works seemed to capture the spirit of America, and he became so emblematic of his country that he read his work at President Kennedy's inauguration and traveled to Israel, Greece, and the Soviet Union as an emissary of the U.S. State Department. While many readers think of him as the personification of New England, he was born in San Francisco, published his first book of poetry in England, matured as a poet while abroad, taught for several years at the University of Michigan, and spent many of his winters in Florida. This reference helps illuminate the hidden complexities of his life and work. Included in this volume are hundreds of alphabetically arranged entries on Frost's life and writings. Each of his collected poems is treated in a separate entry, and the book additionally includes entries on such topics as his public speeches, various colleges and universities with which he was associated, the honors that he won, his biographers, films about him, poets, and others whom he knew, and similar items. Each entry is written by an expert contributor and closes with a brief bibliography. The volume also provides a chronology and concludes with a general bibliography of major studies.
