In this Very Short Introduction, Bernard O'Donoghue provides a fascinating look at the many different forms of writing which have been called "poetry" - from the Greeks to the present day.

"The Raven" is a narrative poem by American writer Edgar Allan Poe. First published in January 1845, the poem is often noted for its musicality, stylized language, and supernatural atmosphere. It tells of a talking raven's mysterious visit to a distraught lover, tracing the man's slow fall into madness.

As the poet Mark Strand wrote, “Ink runs from the corners of my mouth / There is no happiness like mine / I have been eating poetry.” In the past, when I was full from eating, I have had the audacity to set poetry to music. But, on this audiobook, you will hear the music of the poems.

Stéphane Mallarmé (1842-1898), geboren in Paris, war einer der Wegbereiter der modernen Lyrik. In seinem bekanntesten Werk, dem "Nachmittag eines Fauns), beschreibt er die Geschichte eines Fauns oder Satyrs, der aus seinem Mittagsschlaf erwacht. Monologisch erzählt er, was er am Morgen erlebt hat. Oder hat er es vielleicht nur geträumt? Das Gedicht wurde in der Musik mehrmals thematisiert; Debussys sinfonische Dichtung ist weltberühmt.
