English Romantic Poetry: An Anthology
Stanley Appelbaum1996

Here are the great English Romantic poems -- including Kubla Khan, The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, Adonais, Ode to the West Wind, The Tyger, Tintern Abbey, Ode on Melancholy -- brought alive in all their characteristic passion!
Although Romantic poetry is a universal phenomenon, the English language has produced an abundance of masters of the genre. This selection, which includes works by Blake, Burns, Byron, Coleridge, Keats, Shelley, and Wordsworth, represents the poets at their imaginative and eloquent best.
Rendered in the distinctive voices of stage legends Anthony Quayle, Claire Bloom, and Ralph Richardson, this recording captures the emotional range and the intensely personal quality that characterizes English Romantic poetry.
