Overview of Pegasus Book

Pegasus, the winged horse in Greek mythology, is considered the symbol of poetic genius. He is said to have brought forth with a stroke of his hoof the fountain Hippocrene on Mount Helicon which is sacred to the Muses, the nine goddesses who encouraged the arts and sciences, and to Apllo, the god of music and poetry, Hippocrene is considered a source of poetic inspiration for those who drank of its waters. The present anthology of poems in English, by writers from England, America, India, Ghana and the West Indies, is a celebration of the joy of poetic creation and appreciation from different cultures and ages wherever the winged horse has flown. This edition is intended primarily to enable undergraduate students in colleges to enjoy poetry rather than merely get through summaries of poems to pass an examination. A strategy of gradually leading them through a poem has been adopted, each stage helping the student to see one facet of each poem very much like a diamond being examine
