• The Complete Poems (Penguin Classics)

  Andrew Marvell

  
  Member of Parliament, tutor to Oliver Cromwell’s ward, satirist, and friend of John Milton, Andrew Marvell was one of the most significant poets of the seventeenth century. The Complete Poems demonstrates his unique skill and immense diversity, and includes lyrical love poetry, religious works, and biting satire. From the passionately erotic “To His Coy Mistress” to the astutely political Cromwellian poems and the profoundly spiritual “On a Drop of Dew,” in which he considers the nature of the soul, these works are masterpieces of clarity and metaphysical imagery.

• Marvell: Poems (Everyman's Library Pocket Poets)

  Andrew Marvell

  
  The great seventeenth-century metaphysical poet Andrew Marvell was one of the chief wits and satirists of his time as well as a passionate defender of individual liberty. Today, however, he is known chiefly for his brilliant lyric poems, including “The Garden,” “The Definition of Love,” “Bermudas,” “To His Coy Mistress,” and the “Horatian Ode” to Cromwell. Marvell’s work is marked by extraordinary variety, ranging from incomparable lyric explorations of the inner life to satiric poems on the famous men and important issues of his time–one of the most politically volatile epochs in England’s history. From the lover’s famous admonition, “Had we but World enough, and Time, / This coyness, Lady, were no crime,” to the image of the solitary poet “Annihilating all that’s made / To a green Thought in a green Shade,” Marvell’s poetry has earned a permanent place in the canon and in the hearts of poetry lovers.

• Classic Hundred All-Time Favorite Poems

  Sir Thomas Wyatt, Sir Walter Ralegh, Sir Philip Sidney, Christopher Marlowe, William Shakespeare, John Donne, Ben Jonson, Robert Herrick, George Herbert, Thomas Carew, Edmund Waller, John Milton, Sir John Suckling, Richard Lovelace, Andrew Marvell

  
  Imagine if Billboard compiled a list of the top 100 poems, chosen not by critics or professors but by the people themselves. That's the concept behind The Classic Hundred, and it works brilliantly. William Harmon found the 100 most anthologized poems in English, based on the ninth edition of The Columbia Granger's Index to Poetry—the most objective measurement of greatness available, representing consensus among the editors of some 400 anthologies. Then he put them in order and prefaced each one with concise, erudite, often humorous commentary. The range of poets, subjects, and forms—from Shakespeare to Frost, from love and death to crime and punishment, from sonnets to odes—makes this an entertaining, enlightening, and indispensable aural guide to the finest verse in the English language.

• Andrew Marvell (Oxford Authors)

  Andrew Marvell

  
  Now considered to be the most important seventeenth-century poet after John Milton, Andrew Marvell's poems were published posthumously in 1681. This edition of his work offers a new recension of the Oxford English text edition of Margoliouth, and includes explanatory annotation. Marvell's skill as a prose satirist is represented by the inclusion of the first book of The Rehearsal Transpros'd.

• Andrew Marvell - Pastoral and Lyric Poems 1681

  Edited by David Omerod, and Christopher Wortham

  
  With the exception of a minor dialogue, probably the product of the poet's apprentice days, and the 'Elegy on the Death of Lord Hastings', none of Marvell's pastoral and lyric poetry was published during his lifetime. We know it only from the Folio Miscellaneous Poems, which appeared in 1681, three years after Marvell's death. The 1681 Folio is almost certainly very corrupt, yet virtually all modern editions of Marvell follow it extremely closely. This new edition incorporates many new readings, and argues for a radical revaluation of the Folio text. It omits the satirical works, and prints only the thirty two poems for which Marvell is chiefly read today.
