Synopsis "selected poetry"

John Donne (1572-1631) is perhaps the most important poet of the seventeenth century, and has often been referred to as the founder of the metaphysical genre. His poetry is highly distinctive and individual, adopting a multitude of tones, images, forms, and personae. This collection of Donne's verse includes a wide selection from both his secular and divine poems, including such well-known poems as "Air and Angels," "The Flea," the "Holy Sonnets", and "The Progress of the Soul." The poems are provided with full Notes and a useful Introduction to Donne's life and poetry. About the Series: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the broadest spectrum of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, voluminous notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

John Carey es un reconocido crítico literario, académico y escritor británico, nacido el 5 de abril de 1934 en Londres, Inglaterra. Estudió en St John's College, Oxford, donde destacó por su interés en la literatura inglesa. Más adelante se convirtió en profesor de literatura en University of Oxford, institución en la que enseñó durante muchos años y desde la cual influyó en generaciones de estudiantes e investigadores.

Carey es conocido por su estilo claro y accesible al analizar obras literarias y por cuestionar la idea de que la literatura deba ser exclusiva para una élite intelectual. Entre sus libros más destacados se encuentran The Intellectuals and the Masses, donde examina la relación entre los intelectuales y la sociedad, y What Good Are the Arts?, en el que reflexiona sobre el valor del arte y la cultura.

Además de su trabajo académico, escribió reseñas y artículos para importantes periódicos y revistas británicas, convirtiéndose en una figura influyente en el debate cultural. Sus investigaciones abarcan autores como John Milton y la literatura inglesa moderna. Gracias a su capacidad para explicar ideas complejas con sencillez, John Carey es considerado uno de los críticos literarios más importantes del Reino Unido y una referencia en el estudio de la literatura contemporánea.
