Excellent introduction ( ) This is a pretty good selection if all you want is a smattering of Donne. His "major" poems are all in here, so you won't miss anything of major interest. Donne is a great poet for people who are new to poetry. He is clear enough for the begining poetry reader, but you can take his work very, very far. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

Although the poet John Donne lived so long ago, some phrases from his writing still linger with us today, such as “no man is an island,” “death be not proud,” and “for whom the bell tolls,” which provided the title for one of Ernest Hemingway’s novels. John Donne used poems as a means of metaphysical inquiry and meditation as well as for very sensual expression. His daringly original use of imagery and conceits to lead the mind to profound understandings marked a new, intellectual approach to poetry. Like Shakespeare, Donne was a genius at making common words yield up rich, poetic meaning. His thought is complex, but his poems unfold in a logical way.
