इस अत्यंत लोकप्रिय पुस्तक-माला की शुरुआत 1960 के दशक में हुई जब पहली बार नागरी लिपि में उर्दू की चुनी हुई शायरी के संकलन प्रकाशित कर राजपाल एण्ड सन्ज़ ने हिन्दी पाठकों को उर्दू शायरी का लुत्फ़ उठाने का अवसर प्रदान किया। इस पुस्तक-माला का संपादन उर्दू के सुप्रसिद्ध संपादक प्रकाश पंडित ने किया था। हर पुस्तक में शायर के संपूर्ण लेखन में से बेहतरीन शायरी का चयन है और पाठकों की सुविधा के लिए कठिन शब्दों के अर्थ भी दिए हैं। प्रकाश पंडित ने हर शायर के जीवन और लेखन पर - जिनमें से कुछ समकालीन शायर उनके परिचित भी थे - रोचक और चुटीली भूमिकाएं लिखी हैं।

The Divine Comedy is Dante's record of his visionary journey through the triple realms of Hell, Purgatory, and Paradise. This, the first epic of which its author is the protagonist and his individual imaginings the content, weaves together the three threads of classical and Christian history, contemporary Medieval politics and religion, and Dante's own inner life including his love for Beatrice, to create the most complex and highly structured long poem extant.

Prelude to Bruise is a song from a tightrope, balancing ecstatic existence and the chaos that always threatens to engulf a life on the margins. How do we reckon our past without being ravaged by it? How do we use people, their bodies, to express ourselves? Danger is everywhere in these poems, but never overwhelms them; the poet is always an anchor on the other side. And his story carries us relentlessly along.

In this collection, the authors were striving for a natural and unaffected style of verse that sought to avoid the elaborate structures and artifice that they considered had characterized much of the poetry of the 18th century. Of the 23 poems, only four are by Coleridge, including "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner", which is the most famous poem in the collection. The most notable contribution by Wordsworth is the concluding poem, "Tintern Abbey".

Under the order of King Pelias, Jason embarks on a perilous journey to steal the Golden Fleece from the Land of Colchis. Far from heroic, Jason is the typical everyman. Often compared with Homer's Iliad and Odyssey, Jason and the Argonauts is the only surviving poem from the Hellenistic period and was hugely influential on later literature, especially the Roman poetry of Virgil and Ovid.

The Narrow Road to the Interior and Hojoki are two of the best-loved works of their kind; famous for their beautiful, delicate verse and subtle insight into the human condition.

It takes the form of a travel diary, and traces the poet's journey from Edo (modern-day Tokyo) to the northern interior.

Wilson reminds each of us that to truly live, we must recognize that we are dying. Every second we create more of our past. Then, we must see the future. We stand in the now. God says create. Live.

Ghalib is the greatest Urdu poet and one of the greatest in any Indian language. He would rank perhaps among the great poets of the world. With Meer Ghalib, Iqbal and Faiz, to name only four, the firmament of Urdu poetry is truly star studded, with numerous starlets strewn around. Ghalib has not only a pride of place among them; his stature is growing with every passing decade. In fact it is well nigh impossible to do full justice to his poetry, particularly the ghazal in translation. The best that could be done was to translate the verses into independent rhymed couplets.

The poems chronicle everyday struggles that are faced at the hands of fellow Africans masquerading as Pan-Africanists.
