Tottel's Miscellany, first published in 1557, is a collection of English poetry from the early Tudor period. The book was compiled by Richard Tottel and contained poems by some of the most famous poets of the era, including Sir Thomas Wyatt and Henry Howard, Earl of Surrey. The collection was significant because it was one of the first printed anthologies of English poetry, and it helped to establish the sonnet form in English literature. Tottel's Miscellany was also notable for its inclusion of poems written by women, such as Anne Boleyn and Mary Sidney. The book was immensely popular and went through several editions during the 16th century. Today, it is considered a valuable historical document that provides insight into the literary and cultural landscape of Tudor England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may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.
