Poets

""Poets: The Interpreters of Their Age"" by Anna Swanwick is a book that explores the role of poets in society. The author argues that poets are not simply artists who create beautiful verses, but rather they are interpreters of the times in which they live. They are able to capture the essence of their era and express it in a way that resonates with others. Throughout the book, Swanwick examines the works of various poets, including Shakespeare, Milton, and Wordsworth, and analyzes how they reflected the social, political, and cultural climate of their time. She also discusses the importance of poetry in shaping public opinion and the ways in which poets have influenced the course of history. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the power of poetry and its impact on society.""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
