内容説明

This critical survey of modern poetry from Thomas Hardy to Seamus Heaney considers both the self-consciously revolutionary innovations of Modernism and more traditional developments, taking fully into account the extent to which 'English' can no longer be equated solely with England. Scots, Welsh and Irish poetry, and poetry from Commonwealth countries such as Australia, New Zealand and the Carribean, are recognised as equally important aspects of the diversity which characterises modern poetry in English; and, in particular, the contributions of North American poets such as Ezra Pound, William Carlos Williams, Wallace Stevens and Robert Lowell receive the major emphasis which their achievement and extensive influence warrants.

目次

Introduction - Modernism: Pound, Eliot, William Carlos Williams, Wallace Stevens - An Alternative Tradition: Hardy and Frost - Private and Public: Yeats and Lowell - War Poetry - The Thirties and Political Poetry: Auden - Lawrence, Hughes and the Black Mountain Poets - Women's Poetry: Elizabeth Bishop, Sylvia Plath and Adrienne Rich - Regionality and Post-Colonial Poetry - Experiment and Rejection - Notes - Further Reading - Index
