Idea: The Shepheards Garland (1593)

Michael Drayton

""The Shepheards Garland"" is a collection of pastoral poems written by Michael Drayton and published in 1593. The poems are written in a pastoral style, which was popular in the Renaissance era, and depict the lives and loves of shepherds and shepherdesses. The collection consists of twelve poems, each of which tells a different story. Some of the poems are love stories, while others are more philosophical in nature. The language of the poems is rich and lyrical, and the imagery is often drawn from nature. The poems are written in a variety of forms, including sonnets, ballads, and madrigals. Overall, ""The Shepheards Garland"" is a beautiful and evocative collection of poetry that captures the spirit of the Renaissance era.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
