Poets of the South is a comprehensive anthology of poetry written by Southern American poets, compiled and edited by F. V. N. Painter. The book is divided into several sections, each highlighting a different aspect of Southern life and culture. The poems cover a wide range of themes, including love, nature, war, religion, and politics. Some of the poets featured in the book include Edgar Allan Poe, Sidney Lanier, Paul Hamilton Hayne, and Henry Timrod, among others. The book provides a glimpse into the rich literary tradition of the American South and offers readers a chance to explore the unique perspectives and experiences of Southern poets. Overall, Poets of the South is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Southern literature and culture.Poe occupies a peculiar place in American literature. He has been called our most interesting literary man. He stands alone for his intellectual brilliancy and his lamentable failure to use it wisely. No one can read his works intelligently without being impressed with his extraordinary ability. Whether poetry, criticism, or fiction, he shows extraordinary power in them all. But the moral element in life is the most important, and in this Poe was lacking. With him truth was not the first necessity. He allowed his judgment to be warped by friendship, and apparently sacrificed sincerity to the vulgar desire of gaining popular applause.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
