The Norton Anthology of Poetry

Long the classic anthology of poetry in English,

The Norton Anthology of Poetry

, Fifth Edition, adds to its wealth of known and loved poems a rich gathering of new poetry. Beginning with Beowulf, newly represented by selections from Seamus Heaney's dazzling translation, and continuing to the present day,

The Norton Anthology of Poetry

includes 1,100 poems by 250 poets in the Shorter Edition. Many major figuresâ€"from Chaucer and Shakespeare to Ashbery and Walcottâ€"have expanded sections, and a range of outstanding younger voices have been newly added. Concise annotations, biographical sketches, an Essay on Versification by Jon Stallworthy, and, new to this edition, an Essay on Poetic Syntax by Margaret Ferguson help readers understand and enjoy the poems.
