The book still considered as the best anthology in Russian of English poetry from the mid-Victorian period of the 1930s.
The real compiler of the anthology was political and literary historian Prince Dmitry Svyatopolk-Mirsky (1890-1939), who was arrested on 3rd June 1937 and died in prison. He brought together a splendid team of translators and called into play all the knowledge he had accumulated about English poetry. Mirsky's biographer G.S. Smith wrote: 'The translators Mirsky used in his anthology were all based in Leningrad, and he set up the project during a visit there in September 1935. The finished anthology was in the process of publication when Mirsky was arrested; in order to save the enterprise, his name was completely removed from the book and replaced by that of M. Gutner, one of his team of translators. Gunter, a young scholar who was soon killed [died of starvation - A.S.] in the Second World War, was immortal through this deception' (G.S. Smith D.S. Mirsky: A Russian-English Life, 1890-1939. Oxford University Press, 2000).
The collection includes verses by 53 authors, among them: William Morris, Wystan Hugh Auden, Robert Louis Stevenson, Oscar Wilde, Rudyard Kipling, William Butler Yeats, James Joyce, Gilbert Keith Chesterton, David Herbert Lawrence, Thomas Sterns Elliot, Richard Aldington and many others. Dorothy Galton, the secretary of SSEES, supplied the raw materials for the book.
According to one version the translations from D.H. Lawrence were prepared by Mirsky himself (no indication of the translator's name is given). In another, the translator of two poems – Embankment at the Night Before the War and Snake – was Valentin Stenich (Smetanich; 1898-1939). In 14 November 1937 he was arrested and executed.
Joseph Brodsky told that the anthology became 'the main source' of English poetry to him.
