Description:

The language of Poetry is an art that most of us attempt at some point in our lives. Although its commonplace exposure has been somewhat marginalised in today’s often fast-paced lives we all recognise good verse that can empathise with our thoughts or open us up to experience new things in new ways, to better understand and to enjoy the many strands of our lives. But finding a starting point can be overwhelming, even off-putting, so in this series we offer up our Top 10 classic poets, who brim with talent and verse, on a range of subjects and themes that we can all enjoy. In this volume we explore the works of the English Woman. In their times many were neglected and ignored. Society was male dominated and women were definitely second class. Even a title didn’t bring equality, just a little more respect. But now we can hear their words for the wonder that they are. They speak on all manner of things with words that are knowing, inspiring and truthful. Genius in every name. 1 - The Top 10 Poets - English Women - An Introduction 2 - If Thou Must Love Me Let It Be For Nought by Elizabeth Barrett Browning 3 - How Do I Love Thee by Elizabeth Barrett Browning 4 - A Man's Requirements by Elizabeth Barrett Browning 5 - A Thought for a Lonely Death Bed by Elizabeth Barrett Browning 6 - A Curse For A Nation by Elizabeth Barrett Browning 7 - Dead Before Death by Christina Georgina Rossetti 8 - Remember by Christina Rossetti 9 - Goodbye In Fear Goodbye In Sorrow by Christina Rossetti 10 - Who Has Seen the Wind by Christina Rossetti 11 - Sonnets Are Full of Love by Christina Rossetti 12 - Death, That Struck When I Was Most Confiding by Emily Bronte 13 - I Am the Only Being Whose Doom by Emily Bronte 14 - If Grief For Grief Can Touch These by Emily Bronte 15 - Ah!
