Sixty years ago the original Oxford Book of Sixteenth-Century Verse emerged as a classic anthology of this astonishing century of literary output. Now Emrys Jones has moved beyond the limits of that landmark volume, providing a definitive collection which truly captures the diversity of this period. Along with the classic poems, he also offers a wide selection of admirable verse from often unexpected sources (including Elizabeth I), deepening our appreciation for this remarkable literary era.
