Auden's great anthology is above all a rethinking of the history of poetry in English. Auden looked for a poetry that was clear, enjoyable, and absolutely modern; taking full account of popular traditions, he includes ballads, chanteys, ditties, nursery rhymes, streetcalls, bathroom graffiti, and tombstone epitaphs; folk songs, vaudeville turns, and blues, not to mention limericks and clerihews. This new edition restores previously censored poems.
