For students of Middle English, Andrew and Waldron's The Poems of the Pearl Manuscript has been the key edition of the four Pearl poems for over 30 years. With the changing needs of today's students in mind, the editors produced a complete prose translation of the four poems - the best known of which is "Sir Gawain and the Green Knight". The near-literal translations are intended to facilitate understanding of the four poems - to lead readers to, rather than away from, the original texts.

"Poems in Prose" is the collection of six prose poems by Oscar Wilde published in 1894, including, in order: "The Artist," "The Doer of Good," "The Disciple," "The Master," "The House of Judgment" and "The Teacher of Wisdom."

This collection was published posthumously in 1869 under the title of Petits Poèmes En Prose, but is also known as Le Spleen de Paris. A prime influence was Gaspard de la Nuit, the prose poem collection by Aloysius Bertrand. Baudelaire described these short pieces as experiments, and also "confessions." The poet was seeking to create "the miracle of a poetic prose, musical without rhythm and without rhyme, subtle and staccato enough to follow the lyric motions of the soul, the wavering outlines of meditation, the sudden starts of the conscience."

Ugo Foscolo esprime tutte le vicissitudini esistenziali di uno scrittore alle prese con gli anni difficili del mutamento dall'Illuminismo al Romanticismo, dalla Rivoluzione Francese alla Restaurazione, dal materialismo del 1700 all'angoscia religiosa dei romantici.

"Le Spleen de Paris", aussi nommé "Les Petits poèmes en prose", est publié en 1864. Ce recueil complète "Les Fleurs du mal".

Mascha Kaléko ist eine leuchtende Ausnahmeerscheinung in der deutschen Literatur. Niemand verkörpert das Berlin der Weimarer Republik zwischen Schreibmaschinengrau, hellen Kinoreklamen und nicht enden wollenden Nächten im Romanischen Café so sehr wie die melancholische Großstadtdichterin mit ihrem sprühenden Witz. Auch nach ihrer Flucht vor den Nationalsozialisten 1938 besang sie diese verlorene Heimat in Versen vom Emigrantenleben in New York, Jerusalem und anderswo.
