  • Sumário

  • Send us a text

    Today we look at the love children of John Donne and Ben Jonson, a group of monarchist soldiers during the English Civil War. Collectively known as the Cavalier Poets, they are numerous. We'll look at some representative poems today by Robert Herrick, Thomas Carew, Richard Lovelace, and the ill-fated and unfortunately named Sir John Suckling.

    Additional music:
    "Consort for Brass" by Kevin MacLeod
    "La Violetta" by Claudio Monteverdi; perf. The Boston Camerata, dir. Joel Cohen
    "In Town Tonight" by Reginald Dixon; perf. Eric Coates
