Rather than simply chronicling the genre, Philip Metres argues that this poetry gets to the heart of who is authorized to speak about war and how it can be represented. As such, he explores a largely neglected area of scholarship: the poet's relationship to dissenting political movements and the nation. 410 0$aContemporary North American poetry series. 606 $aProtest poetry, American$xHistory and criticism 606 $aAnti-war poetry, American$xHistory and criticism 606 $aAmerican poetry$y20th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aAmerican poetry$y21st century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aWar in literature 615 0$aProtest poetry, American$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aAnti-war poetry, American$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aAmerican poetry$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aAmerican poetry$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aWar in literature. 676 $a811 700 $aMetres$b Philip$f1970-$01662467 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910819861103321 996 $aBehind the lines$94019180 997 $aUNINA
