The following poets and the theme for each is as follows: Homer, the Homeric question and the Homeric theology; Virgil, poet of the Roman Empire; Dante, Dante and the Divine Comedy; Shakespeare, the universality of Shakespeare; Milton, poet of the Protestant reformation; Goethe, poet of Pantheism; Wordsworth, poet of nature; Browning, his poetry and theology; Tennyson, poetry as interpreting the Divine Order.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
