Tennyson had a life-long interest in the legend of King Arthur and after the huge success of his poem 'Morte d'Arthur' he built on the theme with this series of twelve poems, written in two periods of intense creativity over nearly twenty years. Idylls of the King traces the story of Arthur's rule, from his first encounter with Guinevere and the quest for the Holy Grail to the adultery of his Queen with Launcelot and the King's death in a final battle that spells the ruin of his kingdom. Told with lyrical and dreamlike eloquence, Tennyson's depiction of the Round Table reflects a longing for a past age of valour and chivalry. And in his depiction of King Arthur he created a hero imbued with the values of the Victorian age - one who embodies the highest ideals of manhood and kingship.

"Damasus of Rome makes available in English the epigraphic poetry of Damasus, bishop of Rome from 366 to 384. A full introduction situates Damasus in his times by considering his troubled election and the issues that dominated Rome and his papacy. The introduction also sets the poems within the broader sweep of the history of epigraphic poetry at Rome and relates them both to the development of the Christian catacombs and to the emergence of the cults of the Roman saints. Modern scholarship readily acknowledges that the years of Damasus' episcopacy were pivotal ones in the transformation of Rome into a late antique Christian city. His poetry, much of it inscribed at the suburban tombs of the Roman saints and martyrs, played an incalculable but significant role in the redefinition of both Roman and Christian identity in this remarkable age."--Back cover

Pedro Calderón de la Barca es uno de los mejores poetas que ha dado la lengua castellana, como se puede apreciar en esta, la primera edición crítica de su poesía no dramática completa, acompañada de sus sonetos. Estos poemas muestran la inigualable maestría técnica de Calderón, así como su evolución estilística y la gran variedad de temas que tocó. Su obra incluye escultóricos poemas doctrinales como "Psalle et Sile" y meditaciones ascéticas como "Agora, señor, ágora", así como sentidas elegías y brillantes poemas cortesanos. Además, estos textos ponen de relieve un lado menos conocido de Calderón: su capacidad para la burla y la improvisación, que demuestra en poemas como el autorretrato burlesco "Curiosísima señora" o el divertido "Cantariloquio", en los que no rehúye la broma escatológica o el disparate.
