The Poetical Works of Edmund Waller and Sir John Denham (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a selection of verse by Edmund Waller, widely regarded as one of the most significant English poets of the 17th century, alongside his fellow Cavalier poets during a time of significant change. His poems, largely amorous and complimentary, offer insights into the courtly life. His famous and moving panegyric to Oliver Cromwell explores ideas of power and kingship. The author's belief in divine right is challenged by the rise of parliament, and the instability of the time is reflected in Waller's complex personal allegiances. His writing is known for its grace and fluency, with particular attention to metrical regularity and harmonious sound. Waller's technical proficiency left a lasting impact on English poetry, shaping conventions for generations to come. Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
