Lyrical Legacy helps teachers explore eighteen American songs and poems from the digital collections of the Library of Congress. Each song and poem is represented by an original primary source document, along with historical background information and, in many cases, sound recordings and alternate versions.
Here you will learn about poetic elements, which make poetry, and all kinds of writing come alive.
After you've learned about each element, you can take a practice quiz to see if you really understand. You can also read classic poems and find links to more poems by classic authors.
