520			_a"Handy Dictionary of Poetical Quotations" by George W. Powers is a collection of poetical quotations compiled in the early 20th century. This reference work aims to provide readers with a well-rounded selection of verses from prominent English poets, along with notable Continental authors, giving special attention to modern poetry that may resonate with contemporary readers. Its purpose is to illustrate various human sentiments and experiences through familiar and perhaps lesser-known lines of poetry. The opening of the dictionary presents a preface outlining the compiler's intent and methodology. Powers emphasizes the importance of both timeless and contemporary poetic expressions, acknowledging that while established poets like Shakespeare dominate the collection, new voices and ideas are also featured. The compilation includes carefully selected excerpts organized by topics, with a robust index that aids readers in finding quotations that match their interests or sentiments. This thoughtful approach encourages engagement with the beauty of language and the depth of human emotion found within poetry. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
