«The Metaphysical Poets» is the anthology of metaphysical poetry edited by Helen Gardner, published by Penguin Classics in paperback (336 pages, in English).
The Metaphysical Poets brings together seventeenth-century English poets who, without forming a declared school, shared traits of argument and persuasion that came to be called metaphysical. It includes John Donne, George Herbert, Andrew Marvell, Henry Vaughan, Thomas Carew and Richard Crashaw, among others.
The Metaphysical Poets was originally published in 1960; the volume is completed by John Milton, Sir Walter Ralegh, Robert Southwell and Sir William Davenant, among others.
Intended for readers of English poetry, especially of the seventeenth century, and for those studying Baroque literature.
