Course Description Lyric poetry about love, sex, death, and God by John Donne and others (e.g., George Herbert, Aemelia Lanyer, Mary Wroth, Robert Herrick and Andrew Marvell). Also selections of prose about science, politics, religion, and philosophy (e.g., Francis Bacon, John Donne, perhaps Thomas Browne, and early communists "The Levellers") in this "century of Revolution" that inaugurated more modern ways of thinking and doubting. Donne's poetry and prose may well receive the most extended attention.
