Receptions. Modernist poetry and the canon / Jason Harding.This 2007 Companion offers the most comprehensive overview available of modernist poetry, its forms, its major authors and its contexts. The first part explores the historical and cultural contexts and sexual politics of literary modernism and the avant garde. The chapters in the second part concentrate on individual authors and movements, while the concluding part offers a comprehensive overview of the early reception and subsequent canonisation of modernist poetry. As well as insightful readings of canonical poets, the Companion features extended discussions of poets whose importance is now being increasingly recognised, such as Mina Loy, poets of the Harlem Renaissance, and postcolonial poets in the Caribbean, Africa and India. While modernist poets are often thought of as difficult, these essays will help students to understand and enjoy their experimental, playful and fascinating responses to contemporary social and cultural change and their dialogue with the arts and with each other.Cambridge companions to literature.English poetry20th centuryHistory and criticismModernism (Literature)United StatesModernism (Literature)Great BritainAmerican poetry20th centuryHistory and criticismEnglish poetryHistory and criticism.Modernism (Literature)Modernism (Literature)American poetryHistory and criticism.821.9109112Davis Alex(English professor),Jenkins Lee M(Lee Margaret),UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK996201141703316The Cambridge companion to modernist poetry2493507UNISA
