The Art of English Poesie is a book written by George Puttenham in 1589. The book is a treatise on the art of poetry, and it is considered to be one of the most important works on the subject from the Elizabethan era. Puttenham provides a detailed analysis of the different forms of poetry, including sonnets, ballads, and epigrams, and he offers advice on the techniques and styles that poets should use to create their work. The book also includes a discussion of the role of poetry in society, and Puttenham argues that poetry should be used to promote moral and ethical values. The Art of English Poesie is an important work for anyone interested in the history of English literature, and it remains a valuable resource for poets and scholars today.Contrived Into Three Books, The First Of Poets And Poesie, The Second Of Proportion, The Third Of Ornament.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
