The collection presents the work of poets such as John Donne, George Herbert, Andrew Marvell, and Henry Vaughan, whose poetry is defined by its intellectual complexity, striking conceits, and passionate fusion of reason and emotion. Gardner's authoritative editorial hand guides readers through the nuances of this movement, illuminating the philosophical and theological preoccupations that animate these remarkable works. Originally published by Penguin Books, this volume remains an essential companion for students and lovers of English literature seeking to understand one of poetry's most dazzling and enduring traditions.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48956115124443,"sku":"2026200011000-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/e95e0006-03aa-4bfb-a26d-021ed24bbab2.png?v=1783497884","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200011000-secondhand-the-metaphysical-poets","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
