Death Poetry“Death, Be Not Proud”Series: Pure PoetryBy Stephanie Buckwalter DetailsDetails ReviewsReviews Is death the end—or a new beginning? Should it be feared—or embraced? Or is it simply a ceasing to exist? What better way to examine this great unknown than through poetry. Author Stephanie Buckwalter explores eight poems and poets, with chapters on John Donne, Emily Brontë, Walt Whitman, and five others. Accompanied by biographical information on the poet and end-of-chapter questions for further study, Buckwalter unravels each poem, including detailed analysis of form, content, poetic technique, and theme, encouraging readers to develop the tools to understand and appreciate poetry.Publication Date: 01/01/2014Copyright: 2014Pages: 128Trim Size: 6 x 9Illustrations: Illus. with color and black-and-white photographs and illustrationsGrade Level: 9–12Age Level: 14–upLC Number: 2013008360Lexile: 1060ATOS Reading Level: 7.7Dewey: 809.1FormatsFormatISBNList PriceDiscount PriceLibrary Bound Book978-0-7660-4257-5$35.27$26.45eBook978-0-7660-5880-4$35.27$26.45 "The focus is on the poems and not the poet...This nonfiction series meets several of the reading standards for the Common Core."Library Media Connection, October 2014"As a cross between informational nonfiction and an expository textbook, students will likely use these for reference unless having a particular interest in a poet or theme."VOYA, August 2014"...these eight examples will provide ample tools for students learning how to unpack poetry."Booklist, April 1, 2014 Loading… Other books in Pure Poetry 1 Loading… Other books from the authors 1 Loading… eBook: 978-0-7660-5880-4 List Price: $35.27 Discount Price: $26.45 + Add to wish list Library Bound Book: 978-0-7660-4257-5 List Price: $35.27 Discount Price: $26.45 + Add to wish list Please log in Log in or register to create a wish list.
