Summary
Sara Teasdale (1884 -1933) was a lyric poet whose third major work, 1917's Love Songs won both the Columbia Poetry Prize (later the Pulitzer) and the Poetry Society of America Prize in 1918. Her haunting poetry is characterized by clarity, simplicity, the use of classical forms, and romantic subject matter. The themes of Love Songs include love, nature, and death. Parts I and III of Love Songs include some poems from "Helen of Troy and other Poems" (1911) and "Rivers to the Sea" (1915).
