Almost fifty years since the anthology's first appearance, it is still the only such one ever attempted. By "pure poetry" Moore meant lasting objects of verbal beauty and imagination that serve no purpose other than poetic enjoyment. Thus this delightful book of selections from both familiar and surprising sources—among others, Ben Jonson, Blake, Tennyson, Poe Walter Savage Landor, and Swinburne.
