Àííîòàöèÿ: The fifth volume of Poets of the English Language brings together the most representative poets of two latter-day groups. In style and craftsmanship the poetry of the last half of the nineteenth century and first part of the twentieth extended, developed, and refined the discoveries of the early Romantics.

Àííîòàöèÿ: This new edition has won international praise from students and teachers. It is the indispensable practical reference book to the English language. A dictionary that will be useful to the learner must be more than an occasional reference for spelling difficulties, pronunciations and the meanings of difficult or new vocabulary; a knowledge of how to select vocabulary for particular contexts and how to put the words together in the correct order is most important. This dictionary is the only one which provides detailes information of this kind. It makes an active contribution to written and oral work in the same way that a textbook does and provides the student with an excellent opportunity for private study. The dictionary provides a unique wealth of information and guidance on sentence patterns and usage, including notes on common errors and on comparative structures. The inclusion of numerous phrases and sentences to illustrate structures and contexts is a very important feature of the text.Idiomatic expressions and collocations, with which English abounds and which the foreign user finds most difficult to handle,have also been given careful attention. Stylistic values and specialist English registers are recorded, as are American spellings, meanings and pronunciation

Àííîòàöèÿ: The present collection, which was first published in 1950 and has been reprinted seventeen times, has been widely acclaimed and remains one of the best known and most constantly used anthologies of modern poetry to have appeared.
