Explanation Concering Books The Songs and Sonets of John Donne
There is perhaps no superior edition of Donne's Songs and Sonets than Theodore Redpath's wonderful annotated volume. Out of print for a decade, the book is reprinted here in its second, revised edition. The book's twofold origin is evident on every page of Redpath's limpid commentary: it arises partly out of a life of scholarship and partly from Redpath's experiences and concerns as a teacher. The volume contains notes "on every point likely to cause difficulty to a reader of average intelligence."Particularize Books As The Songs and Sonets of John Donne

.I can only admire when I read the poems by John Donne and then try reelin into the depths of his detailed imagination that was well beyond the comprehension of his time and still remains the same for the most. This edition of his Songs and Sonnets is wonderful and as rightly asserted in the introduction, an authentic one.
every single poem in this volume makes you tremble and shed tears, I can't even choose one as my favorite, I fell in love with Donne, I love him more than Shakespeare, I'm planning to read his elegies and sermons and satires too.you MUST read Donne."
I love anything by John Donne. I had a beautiful edition of his poetry that I kept locked in my classroom, and a student somehow stole it. I'll never be able to replace that exact edition, but I plan to find another edition of his poetry soon. He was a genius.
"If ever any beauty I did see,/ Which I desired, and got, 'twas but a dream of thee" one of my favorite quotes from "The good-morrow" No love exists without a prior history of other loves yet in these two lines he gives them value, merely as a precursor to this one great love. John Donne wrote love poetry with his intellect,with refinement and with an awareness that passion has a life of its own. His intellectual games, as present in "The Flea" are not really intended to be convincing but rather
When sex and love collide. One could say it's more like poetical pornography (mostly about cheating and how it is absolutely normal no matter what you've heard in a church) and yes it is and it's perfect.
