The Classic Hundred Poems
The hundred poems on this disc are those that have been most often included in anthologies indexed in The Columbia Granger's Index to Poetry. Poems such as Coleridge's "Kubla Khan," and Shelley's "Ozymandius" can be located by author, subject, genre, verse form, or title and first line. The system offers sections on the poems and the poets (with text and audio recordings), as well as biographies, a glossary of poetic terms with links to poems, commentaries with further suggested reading, a time line (placing poets within a historical context), and maps. Bottom Line: This disc is a highly efficient, functional work of art. Beautiful to look at, a pleasure to use, and an educational treasure for students and teachers of poetry. Enthusiastically recommended for all libraries.Copyright 1998 Reed Business Information, Inc.--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
