Roger Lonsdale Orden de los libros (cronológico)

Challenging the traditional, narrow view of eighteenth-century poetry as an era of Augustan reason, this anthology presents 552 selections, including scurrilous, bawdy, and anti-rational verse, as well as themes usually associated with the century's poetry

This anthology succeeds in illustrating the kinds of verse actually written in the eighteenth century. In addition to the selections from various poets, the anthology includes verse by many forgotten writers, both men and women, from all levels of society.
