Book Description
Though Housman has received little critical acclaim, he is seen by some as an undervalued ironist. Examine his work through some of his most renowned critics. His work is examined from various angles, including Housman's divided persona, figurations of time, the poetic tradition, and more.

History’s greatest poets are covered in one series with expert analysis by Harold Bloom and other critics. These texts offer a wealth of information on the poets and their works that are most commonly read in high schools, colleges, and universities.
