About This Novel
This book is the second volume of "The Time Book of Poetry", taking readers through the magical gallery of Western poetry classics. Beginning with Sappho, the world's first poet who sang about personal love, the author selects 12 great poets in the history of Western poetry: from Shelley, the representative of romanticism and the "poet among poets", to Pushkin, the father of Russian literature; from Ding, the poet laureate of aestheticism Nissen, to the pioneer of Symbolism, Edgar Allan Poe; from the ancient Greek tragedy master Euripides, to the poet Prudhomme who wrote about the loneliness of modern people... 12 Heart-wrenching poetic stories depict an extremely splendid picture of life, and also reveal the original loneliness of human nature. The book contains nearly a hundred famous Western paintings, which together with the moving poems, merge into a miniature version of the history of Western art. The poems and paintings are accompanied by magnificent and splendid works, which fully demonstrate the loftiness and magnificence of the Western art classics.
