The Top 10 Poets - The Gothic Poets

The language of Poetry is an art that most of us attempt at some point in our lives. Although its commonplace exposure has been somewhat marginalised in today’s often fast-paced lives we all recognise good verse that can empathise with our thoughts or open us up to experience new things in new ways, to better understand and to enjoy the many strands of our lives.

But finding a starting point can be overwhelming, even off-putting, so in this series we offer up our Top 10 classic poets, who brim with talent and verse, on a range of subjects and themes that we can all enjoy.

In this volume we explore the 18th Century poetic phenomenon of Gothic poetry. With elements of horror, the supernatural and macabre and themes of isolation, madness, its vivid images and a sense of unease its verse stands out.
