Surviving the Trojan War was just the beginning of the adventure for Odysseus.

This translation of Homer's classic tale captures all the timeless excitement and gripping drama that have made it a favorite for centuries.

John Donne, Andrew Marvell, George Herbert, Thomas Carew, and Henry Vaughan: these were some of the 17th-century writers who devised a new form of poetry full of wit, intellect and grace, which we now call Metaphysical poetry. They wrote about their deepest religious feelings and their carnal pleasures in a way that was radically new and challenging to their readers. Their work was largely misunderstood or ignored for two centuries, until 20th-century critics rediscovered it, finding in it a deep originality and a willingness to experiment.

Zen monk Santoka Taneda (1882 - 1940) is one of Japan's most beloved modern poets, famous for his "free-verse" haiku, the dominant style today. This book tells the fascinating story of his life, liberally sprinkled with more than 300 of his poems and extracts from his essays and journals - compiled by his best friend and biographer Sumita Oyama and elegantly translated by William Scott Wilson.

A beautiful, tragic, and hopeful tale, this story centers around such themes as love, loss, and empathy.

According to biographer D. J. Taylor, the young Orwell displayed ‘an enthusiasm for poetry that in [his] formative years seems to have been as least as strong as any desire to write fiction’. Orwell’s poetry is not among his best known - or most highly praised - work but nonetheless shares similar concerns to (and displays the dry sense of humour present in) his prose. Mere foothills in the range of Orwell’s work perhaps - but building up to the summits later scaled.

Today Byron is regarded as the ultimate romantic - a rebel, a Casanova, and a man of intense, brooding passion. He was the most famous literary man of his time, and his poetry, endlessly witty and often insightful, was immensely popular and hugely influential. From the delicate romanticism of "She Walks in Beauty" to the evocative reflections of "So We’ll Go No More a Roving", Byron’s poems were unrivaled in their power and potency.

Today Thomas Gray is remembered almost solely for this melancholy meditation on the inevitability of death and the insignificance of fame. The poem was originally thought to have been inspired by the death of Gray's close friend, Richard West, but modern critics think this to be unlikely. Retiring by nature, Gray did not want the elegy to be published, but his hand was forced by an unscrupulous editor who planned to publish the poem without permission. The polished elegance of the versification has ensured that the poem has retained its appeal over the centuries.

Here are some of the finest narrative poems in the English language, dating from an age of rich inspiration.

In ihnen zeigt Büchner Menschen im Spannungsfeld von Macht, Freiheit und existenzieller Not – mit einer sprachlichen Präzision und psychologischen Tiefe, die ihrer Zeit weit voraus waren. Auch die Erzählung Lenz zeugt von Büchners einzigartiger Fähigkeit, innere Zustände und seelische Grenzerfahrungen literarisch erfahrbar zu machen. Seine Texte brechen mit klassischen Formen, verzichten auf einfache Antworten und stellen die großen Fragen nach dem Menschen in einer oft widersprüchlichen Welt.

Harpagon sacrifie tout ce qui l'entoure à l'objet unique de son attention : sa fortune, son bien placé ou ses pièces d'or enfermées dans sa "cassette". Il lui sacrifie sa progéniture ou ses domestiques, sa maison inconfortable à l'extrême, sa réputation comme son train de vie, sa santé. Il abandonne sa fille à son voisin Anselme, car celui-ci n'en exige aucune dot. Il se laisse dévorer par un désir de posséder l'argent, de le saisir, de le manipuler pour ce qu'il représente.
