Britannia's Pastorals is a collection of pastoral poems written by William Browne and first published in 1613. The poems are set in the idyllic countryside of England and follow the lives and loves of shepherds and shepherdesses. The collection is divided into three books, each containing a series of poems that explore themes of love, nature, and morality. The poems are written in a lyrical and pastoral style, with vivid descriptions of the natural world and the lives of the shepherds. They are also infused with classical allusions and references to Greek and Roman mythology. Browne's work was highly influential in the development of pastoral poetry in England, and his use of the genre to explore themes of love and morality was particularly innovative. Britannia's Pastorals is a classic work of English literature and remains a beloved example of pastoral poetry. This edition of the book, published in 1852, includes an introduction by the editor, as well as notes and annotations to help readers understand the historical and literary context of the poems.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
