Description

Compiled and edited by Neil Roberts (Professor of English Literature at Sheffield University), A Companion To Twentieth-Century Poetry is an impressive anthology of forty-eight scholarly essays drawn from a wide variety of authors and academicians studying the development of poetry in twenty English-speaking countries over the last century. From context of the poets and their work; to the repercussions of the post-colonial age; to the increasing voice of female poets; as well as an overall tendency towards self-consciousness and self-reflection; A Companion To Twentieth-Century Poetry offers informed and informative insights gleaned from as widespread and diverse a group of contributors as the authors of the memorable poems themselves.
