Donne: a London poet (Chatterton lectures on English poets, 1972)

Everett, Barbara

Oxford University Press

<p>Widely regarded as one of England's most sensitive readers of poetry, Barbara Everett here examines the poetry of Donne, Milton, Marvell, Rochester, Pope, Keats, Browning, Eliot, Auden, and Philip Larkin. The implicit argument of these essays is designed to show the way each poet remains an individual-idiosyncratic, odd, rich-while interacting with the conditions of a particular historical context. To this difficult task Everett brings an extraordinary ability to read closely and an intimate knowledge of the period.</p>

Poets in Their Time: Essays on English Poetry from Donne to Larkin (Clarendon Paperbacks)

Literature & Fiction

History & Criticism

Clarendon Press

These essays offer fresh ideas about Shakespeare. Everett argues that patterns in the major tragedies are drawn from the most common human experiences, and that Shakespeare used his great public settings to suggest myths of the personal life. The first essay "Growing," proposes a new reading that recovers an older forgotten view of the place of the young within the social order. Other essays exemplify a wide range of approaches to Shakespeare's tragic texts, including a reading of Romeo and Juliet that presents the Nurse as a key to Shakepeare's tragic conception, and an essay on the "inaction" of Troilus and Cressida that brings out the extraordinary originality of this unclassifiable play. In addition, the book provides ancillary studies of Hamlet and Othello, together with new approaches to the texts which show how these plays manifest their meanings, even in the smallest details of word and phrase.
