<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Originally published: New York: Viking Penguin, 1950.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>This volume, edited and with a superb introduction by W.H. Auden and Norman Holmes Pearson, presents the greatest of the Romantics in all the fullness and ardor of their vision, including William Blake, Robert Burns, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, William Wordsworth, Lord Byron, Percy Bysshe Shelley, John Keats, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry David Thoreau, and Edgar Allan Poe. What emerges is a panoramic view of a generation of artists struggling to remake the world in their own image--and miraculously succeeding.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>W.H.
