The definitive guide to one of the most baffling epics of nineteenth-century literature—a companion to The Annotated Alice. "It’s a Snark!"…for whatever else can it be?" Published on April Fools’ Day in 1876, Lewis Carroll’s The Hunting of the Snark remains one of the most amusing and bizarre works of modern verse. Carroll, who completed this classic poem eleven years after the publication of Alice in Wonderland, invites readers along on a fictitious hunt to determine who—or what—the Snark actually is. More than 130 years later, the indomitable Martin Gardner returns

Robert Cummings’s important new anthology offers in-depth annotation to a chronologically arranged selection from more than 50 poets writing between 1600 and 1700. The so-called canonical poets are generously represented (all of Milton’s Comus, all of Marvell’s Upon Appleton House, all of Denham’s Coopers Hill) and sometimes with a novel emphasis on what are often taken as unanthologizable (non-lyric) kinds (more of Donne’s epistolary and funerary poetry, selections from Drayton’s Poly-Olbion, more of Waller). But the volume is notably catholic, including
