Summary

Over three editions， The Norton Anthology of Poetry has become the classroom standard for the study of poetry in English。 A wide and deep quarry of poems from the medieval period to the present， it is a book instructors rely on as a uniquely flexible teaching anthology， and one that students delve into well beyond college。 Now， responding to new scholarship， classroom suggestions， and the vitality and diversity of poetry itself， the Fourth Edition introduces a wealth of new poets and poems as well as thoroughly revised editorial apparatus。

I read a little bit every day; beautiful collection。

This review is for the 2018 edition。 I quite liked Norton's Anthology of Poetic Forms but I was left craving something more comprehensive。 Enter， this gem。 Every poetry aficionado needs a copy of this in their library。 It's a weighty tome （trust me， you'll want to set it down when you read from it） but it's something you'll go back to time and time again。 The "usual suspects" are all accounted for here and there are also some more esoteric choices， making it a greatly varied volume。 It's also ar This review is for the 2018 edition。 I quite liked Norton's Anthology of Poetic Forms but I was left craving something more comprehensive。 Enter， this gem。 Every poetry aficionado needs a copy of this in their library。 It's a weighty tome （trust me， you'll want to set it down when you read from it） but it's something you'll go back to time and time again。 The "usual suspects" are all accounted for here and there are also some more esoteric choices， making it a greatly varied volume。 It's also arranged chronologically so if you're looking to see how poetry has evolved over the centuries， it's fantastic。 There are also mini biographies for each author and an exceptionally comprehensive glossary of poetic forms。 I saw reviews on other sites where people weren't happy with the thinness of the pages， so I thought it was something worth mentioning here。 Those reviews didn't exaggerate， the paper is exactly like Bible paper; waxy and very thin。 Personally， I love that sort of paper but it can be a point of contention for some people。 。。。more

Great on a per-pound basis， though my personal interests tend to the more recent in my post-academia era。

My companion at uni。 Almost all the classic poetry you need。

for ’Poetry: Reading and Interpretation’; not cover to cover

3。5 starsWonderful book。 I got a second-hand copy for a few hundred bucks， since the original copies were ridiculously expensive for a student （8k for one book？！） I am also a little disappointed that there are only 3 poems of Dorothy Parker when she should have had at least 5 pages dedicated to her。 （Like c'mon， even E。 E Cummings has got 9 poems！）Other than that， I am pretty much satisfied with the book。 There are a total of 1823 poems， which I am fairly certain will keep me satisfied for the n 3。5 starsWonderful book。 I got a second-hand copy for a few hundred bucks， since the original copies were ridiculously expensive for a student （8k for one book？！） I am also a little disappointed that there are only 3 poems of Dorothy Parker when she should have had at least 5 pages dedicated to her。 （Like c'mon， even E。 E Cummings has got 9 poems！）Other than that， I am pretty much satisfied with the book。 There are a total of 1823 poems， which I am fairly certain will keep me satisfied for the next few months。 。。。more

Extremely dense with everything a student could need。

I've owned this book for a long time and I've never read it cover to cover。 But I do love to open it to random pages and scan poems for a little while。 I've been doing that a lot lately， at the expense of my reading challenge， so I'm including it here。 I've owned this book for a long time and I've never read it cover to cover。 But I do love to open it to random pages and scan poems for a little while。 I've been doing that a lot lately， at the expense of my reading challenge， so I'm including it here。 。。。more

Whew， almost four years on and off -- I feel a bit bereft！

I began reading this book as a detour to fill in some missing breadth between volumes of Jerome Rothenberg's Poems for the Millennium。 I was waiting tables and apartment living with my girlfriend and two cats in Seattle。 That was seven years ago。 Today I finished the final page in my house while my wife， the same girlfriend from before， held our baby daughter and watched Beetlejuice with our son and two dogs。 The cats are around but less interested in television than the aquarium。 I'm not saying I began reading this book as a detour to fill in some missing breadth between volumes of Jerome Rothenberg's Poems for the Millennium。 I was waiting tables and apartment living with my girlfriend and two cats in Seattle。 That was seven years ago。 Today I finished the final page in my house while my wife， the same girlfriend from before， held our baby daughter and watched Beetlejuice with our son and two dogs。 The cats are around but less interested in television than the aquarium。 I'm not saying seven years of Milton and Auden and Hart Crane caused a life compounded with living beings but I'm not saying it didn't。 This procreant era of my life happened with these poems and without them。 Long stretches of not reading were as significant as the moments I would dive back in， remembering myself when I had forgotten crucial goals。 My copy is worn - reinforced with packing tape along the spine and cloudy white on the front and back pages where my hands held while I soaked in a bath; I do my best reading in water。 So I lived through all these poems and I hardly remember them now but I didn't read them to have read them。 My only takeaway is that I chose to live with poetry and I still like the choice。 What I loved about this volume was how it generated a great to-read list of poets。 。。。more

Anthologies are like an "all-you-can-eat" buffet。 You discover tantalizing desserts， nutritious entres and often， if you're lucky， delectable surprises。 Anthologies are like an "all-you-can-eat" buffet。 You discover tantalizing desserts， nutritious entres and often， if you're lucky， delectable surprises。 。。。more

This is a wonderful anthology of poetry and how to write a poem in many styles is also included。 I am so happy with this book。 Do Read！

Christopher Moore ，

Interesting collection of poems。

Madison ，

I read it from back to front in reverse chronological order and the segue from familiar English to Old English is really cool。

Nessya ，

Brilliant amalgamation of so many different poets！

connie ，

5/5 starsI mean， I'm not finished finished， but I'm done with it for my module at university and will continue to use it。 Very helpful （albeit expensive）。 5/5 starsI mean， I'm not finished finished， but I'm done with it for my module at university and will continue to use it。 Very helpful （albeit expensive）。 。。。more

Essential

This is a great anthology for poetry lovers。 I wish I could enjoy poetry a lot more and from further back in the English past， but my brain just doesn't take it in and there are so many poems in this！ and the old language makes me think of english literature at secondary school and my brain protests haha ^^" This is a great anthology for poetry lovers。 I wish I could enjoy poetry a lot more and from further back in the English past， but my brain just doesn't take it in and there are so many poems in this！ and the old language makes me think of english literature at secondary school and my brain protests haha ^^" 。。。more

Alexis Scoville ，

I have read this book so many times and I love it。 I hae a fascination with older english and therefore I spent more time in the beginning sections than the later ones， but I loved it so much and still read it。。。。 maybe im just weird。

Velma ，

Eighty bucks？ Really？ I need a Biblio-Fairy Godparent。

Kristin ，
