Routledge The Poems Of Ben Jonson Large 09781138904712
Ben Jonson who was with Shakespeare and Marlowe one of three principal playwrights of his age was also one of its most original and influential poets. Known best for the country house poem âTo Penshurstâ and his moving elegy âOn my First Sonâ his work inspired the whole generation of seventeenth-century poets who declared themselves the âSons of Benâ. This edition brings his three major verse publications Epigrams (1616) The Forest (1616) and Underwood (1641) together with his large body of uncollected poems to create the largest collection of Jonsonâs verse that has been published. It thus gives readers a comprehensive view of the wide range of his achievement from satirical epigrams through graceful lyrics to tender epitaphs. Though he is often seen as the preeminent English poet of the plain style Jonson employed a wealth of topical and classical allusion and a compressed syntax which mean his poetry can require as much annotation for the modern reader as that of his friend John Donne. This edition not only provides comprehensive explanation and contextualization aimed at student and non-specialist readers alike but presents the poems in a modern spelling and punctuation that brings Jonsonâs poetry to life. | The Poems of Ben Jonson
