Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents an exhaustive collection and collation of poems by the metaphysical poet, John Donne, famed as one of the greatest wordsmiths in English literature. It includes lesser-known verse, divine poems, elegies, and a wealth of epigrams. The author carefully examines how Donne's Roman Catholic upbringing influenced his early Divine Poems, which are here reinstated to their rightful place in his oeuvre. Further, the author corrects previous misconceptions and definitively disproves the authenticity of the Sheaf of Epigrams, long attributed to Donne. This meticulously researched and critically authoritative edition enhances our understanding of Donne's literary genius, making it an invaluable resource for scholars and poetry enthusiasts alike.
