Abstract:
"The purpose of the Audio Companion is to provide readings and performances that cannot be duplicated readily in the classroom. The resulting selections are of four kinds: poems read by the authors themselves, from Tennyson to Heaney and Walcott; passages of Old English and Middle English poems, read by experts in the pronunciation of those languages; poems in Scots dialect and poems written in sprung rhythm; and performances of poems set to music"--Container.
