"Representative Poetry On-line includes about 2,350 English poems by 368 poets from Caedmon, in the Old English period, to the work of living poets such as Marge Piercy and Mark Doty. This anthology represents poets from Africa, Australia, Britain, Canada, New Zealand, and the United States. Its collections build on a university teaching textbook published by the University of Toronto Press from 1912 until 1967 to which several dozen scholars contributed, including Kathleen Coburn, Northrop Frye, Marshall McLuhan, Donald Theall, and R. S. Woof. Representative Poetry On-line serves both the poetry student and teacher at school and post-secondary levels, and the poetry lover. It offers classical critical works on poetry, a glossary of poetic terms, annotations on words or passages in the poems, and four indexes (poets, titles, first lines, chronology, and calendar). It represents good poetry of all periods and types, African-American, children's, classical, comic, feminist, and popular, and aims at giving a reliable, helpful edition of each poem." (spartacus)
