The Best Cavalier Poetry

5/5 ( ratings)

A collection of the best of Cavalier poetry, including works from Robert Herrick, Richard Lovelace and Sir John Suckling, Although most of their work was done between c.1637 and 1660, the tradition lasted at least fifty years long. Their poetry embodied the life and culture of upper-class, pre-Commonwealth England, mixing sophistication with naïveté, elegance with raciness. Writing on the courtly themes of beauty, love, and loyalty, they produced finely finished verses, expressed with wit and directness.
