Sitter begins by offering a guide to poetic forms ranging from heroic couplets to blank verse, then demonstrates how skilfully male and female poets of the period used them as vehicles for imaginative experience, feelings and ideas. He then provides detailed analyses of individual works by poets from Finch, Swift and Pope, to Gray, Cowper and Barbauld. An approachable introduction to English poetry and major poets of the eighteenth century, this book provides a grounding in poetic analysis useful to students and general readers of literature. 410 0$aCambridge introductions to literature. 606 $aEnglish poetry$y18th century$xHistory and criticism 615 0$aEnglish poetry$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a821/.509 686 $aLIT004120$2bisacsh 700 $aSitter$b John E.$0193657 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910827821503321 996 $aThe Cambridge introduction to eighteenth-century poetry$93960672 997 $aUNINA LEADER 05462nam 22006974a 450 001 996213314103316 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a1-280-27569-3 010 $a9786610275694 010 $a0-470-31825-2 010 $a0-471-71347-3 010 $a0-471-71346-5 035 $a(CKB)1000000000019057 035 $a(EBL)231444 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000118974 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11129640 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000118974 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10057851 035 $a(PQKB)11507299 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL231444 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10114146 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL27569 035 $a(CaSebORM)9780471443384 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC231444 035 $a(OCoLC)85820365 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000019057 100 $a20040603d2005 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aCavity quantum electrodynamics$b[electronic resource] $ethe strange theory of light in a box /$fSergio M.

With the aid of a model-building approach, readers discover the answer to this question and come to appreciate its important applications in computing, cryptography, quantum teleportation, and opto-electronics. Instead of taking a traditional approach that requires readers to first master a series of seemingly unconnected mathematical techniques, this book engag 410 0$aWiley series in lasers and applications. 606 $aQuantum optics 606 $aQuantum electrodynamics 615 0$aQuantum optics. 615 0$aQuantum electrodynamics. 676 $a535/.15 700 $aDutra$b S.
