Ballads were particularly characteristic of the popular poetry and song of the British Isles from the later medieval period until the 19th century and used extensively across Europe and later the Americas, Australia and North Africa.

* Barrack-Room Ballads ( 1892, poetry )

Along with other poems in Lyrical Ballads, it was a signal shift to modern poetry and the beginning of British Romantic literature.

In the second edition of Lyrical Ballads, published in 1800 ( see 1800 in poetry ), he replaced many of the archaic words.

While the poem was originally published in the collection of Lyrical Ballads, the 1817 version was published in his collection entitled Sibylline Leaves ( see 1817 in poetry ).

He published poetry collections including Canciones ( Songs ) and Romancero Gitano ( Gypsy Ballads, 1928 ), which became his best known book of poetry.

In the century's first decade, poetry still had a large audience ; volumes of verse published in that time included Thomas Hardy's The Dynasts, Christina Rossetti's posthumous Poetical Works, Ernest Dowson's Poems, George Meredith's Last Poems, Robert Service's Ballads of a Cheechako and John Masefield's Ballads and Poems.

His work inspired poetry by Swinburne — Swinburne's 1886 Poems & Ballads is dedicated to Burne-Jones.

Other works include poetry, as Ballads ( 1779 ) and Iambics ( 1784 ), and other works, such as Plays ( 1787 ) and Travels ( 1791 ); and novels, such as The Island ( 1788 ).

In many respects, their criticism echoes what William Wordsworth wrote in Preface to Lyrical Ballads to instigate the Romantic movement in British poetry over a century earlier, criticising the gauche and pompous school which then pervaded, and seeking to bring poetry to the layman.

He wrote two books of poetry: England's Trust and Other Poems, published in 1841, and English Ballads and Other Poems, published in 1850.

Similarly, William Wordsworth had said that poetry should come from " emotions recollected in tranquility " ( Preface to Lyrical Ballads, emphasis added ).

His three main volumes of poetry, Balade vesele şi triste (" Ballads, Merry and Sad "), Parodii originale (" Original Parodies ") and Migdale amare (" Bitter Almonds "), are a compelling mixture of humor and delicate lyricism.

Wordsworth himself in the Preface to his and Coleridge's Lyrical Ballads defined good poetry as “ the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings ,” though in the same sentence he goes on to clarify this statement by asserting that nonetheless any poem of value must still be composed by a man “ possessed of more than usual organic sensibility has also thought long and deeply ;” he also emphasises the importance of the use of meter in poetry ( which he views as one of the key features that differentiates poetry from prose ).

In the Western tradition, all these elements were thought of as properly different in poetry and prose up to the time of the Romantic revolution, when William Wordsworth challenged the distinction in his Romantic manifesto, the Preface to the second ( 1800 ) edition of Lyrical Ballads ( 1798 ).

A Shot in the Park ( poetry, published in U. S. as Borderline Ballads )

Most writers have accepted as " Bab Ballads " any poetry ( whether illustrated or not ) that Gilbert contributed to periodicals, not counting poems written or repurposed as operatic lyrics.

Nearly a century after her death her poetic output had been largely forgotten, until the great English poet William Wordsworth praised her nature poetry in an essay included in his 1815 volume Lyrical Ballads.
