Description
American poet Ezra Pound (1885–1972) was among the most influential literary figures of the twentieth century. As a poet, he founded the Imagist movement (c. 1909–17), which advocated the use of precise, concrete images in a free-verse setting. As an editor, he fostered the careers of William Butler Yeats, T. S. Eliot, and Robert Frost. As a force in the literary world, he championed James Joyce and Wyndham Lewis. Pound also helped to create a modern movement in poetry in which, in T. S. Eliot’s words, “English and American poets collaborated, knew each other’s works, and influenced each other.” Long an expatriate, Pound’s questionable political activities during World War II distracted many from the value of his literary work. Nevertheless, his status as a major American poet has never been in doubt, as this choice collection of fifty-seven early poems amply proves. Here are poems — including a number not found in other anthologies — from Personae (1909), Exultations (1909), Ripostes (1912), and Cathay (1915) as well as selections from his major sequence “Hugh Selwyn Mauberley” (1920).

Description
One of the greatest poets of any century, the Nobel laureate William Butler Yeats (1865–1939) drew upon Irish folklore and myth as inspiration for much of his early poetry. Mythic themes as well as many other topics are masterfully explored in this rich selection of 134 lyrics chiefly selected from six volumes of verse published between 1889 and 1914. Among the poems included are “The Stolen Child” and “Down by the Salley Gardens” (Crossways, 1889); “To the Rose upon the Rood of Time,” “The Lake Isle of Innisfree,” “When You Are Old,” and “To Ireland in the Coming Times” (The Rose, 1893); “The Song of Wandering Aengus” and “A Poet to His Beloved” (The Wind Among the Reeds, 1899); “The Song of Red Hanrahan” (In the Seven Woods, 1903); “No Second Troy” and “The Fascination of What’s Difficult” (The Green Helmet and Other Poems, 1910); “To a Friend Whose Work Has Come to Nothing” and “To a Shade” (Responsibilities, 1914); and many more. This representative selection offers readers a splendid sampling of the distinctive Yeatsian voice — romantic, yearning, full of the magic and mysticism Yeats imbibed as a boy in the West of Ireland, later counterbalanced by an anguished realism grounded in the poet’s nationalistic and political sympathies.

Description
One of the most successful poets in America and a fascinating literary figure of the early twentieth century, Edna St. Vincent Millay found her voice in a national poetry contest at the age of twenty. Her poems received critical praise and became the first step toward receiving the Pulitzer Award years later. An acclaimed poet of the Jazz Age, this liberated, often rebellious, woman enchanted us with her beautiful sonnets and lyrics, even as she surprised us with her unconventional personal life. This vibrant volume includes the complete selection of poems from Millay’s first three books. Each gem reflects a different facet of the author’s versatility. Renascence and Other Poems was Millay’s first collection of poetry, a literary sensation when it was published in 1912. Acclaimed by critics for its remarkable use of compelling language and imagery, it is a deeply personal work that reflects the poet’s spiritual awakening, using the themes of death and resurrection. In contrast, the poetry in A Few Figs from Thistles represents a cynical stage, a time of rebellion, and a search for personal freedom, as depicted in her famous line, “My candle burns at both ends.” Part beauty, part despair, the free verse and heartfelt sonnets of Second April are an expression of Millay’s feelings about love and disillusionment. Eloquent, daring, and sometimes bittersweet, these masterful lyrics exemplify the best work of a complex, passionate, and gifted poet. Includes a selection from the Common Core State Standards Initiative: “Afternoon on a Hill.”

Description
One of the most original and widely imitated poets of the twentieth century, William Carlos Williams (1883–1963) wrote verse firmly rooted in concrete experience and the particulars of everyday life. A practicing physician for more than 40 years, Williams worked in the idiom of modern American speech ― unlike his friend and mentor, Ezra Pound ― and his poems are redolent with a warmth and generosity of spirit. The Beat poets were particularly impressed with the accessibility of his language, and Williams’s widely quoted dictum, “No ideas but in things,” influenced a generation of American poets. This fine selection offers readers the opportunity to study and enjoy the richness and variety of Williams’s early work. More than 70 poems, published between 1917 and 1921, include “Peace on Earth,” “Tract,” “El Hombre,” “Danse Russe,” “Keller Gegen Dom,” “Willow Poem,” “Queen-Anne’s-Lace,” “Portrait of a Lady,” “The Widow’s Lament in Springtime,” and many others.
