Àííîòàöèÿ: The wonderful anthology of verse and prose, short stories, reminiscences and diary entries, ranging from the traditional to the subversive, the whimsical to the sinister, the ironic to the tragic.

Àííîòàöèÿ: 147 poets in a far-ranging survey of the Victorian age s significant poetic achievements. The pleasures of Victorian poetry lie in its multitude of lyric and dramatic voices and, above all, in its rhythmic power and subtlety. Nowhere else can these reading pleasures be better enjoyed than in the pages of Daniel Karlin s enormous selection of poetry written and published during the reign of Queen Victoria (1837-1901). Ranging from the late Romantic period to the brink of high modernism, The Penguin Book of Victorian Verse features a generous sampling of poems.

They have consulted numerous teachers who have been teaching the text, and have received many valuable suggestions as to pruming weakness and preserving strength

Àííîòàöèÿ: Animals must eat to live and though many are vegetarian, many live by hunting other animals. Throughout evolution there has been a constant struggle between the hunter and hunted - the hunted always developing new ways of avoiding capture, and the hunters improving all the time in their ability to seek them out.
