These specially commissioned essays by some of the most highly regarded poetry critics offer a stimulating and reliable overview of English poetry of the twentieth century. The opening section on contexts will both orientate readers relatively new to the field and provide provocative syntheses for those already familiar with it. Following the terms introduced by this section, individual chapters cover many ways of looking at the 'modern', the 'modernist' and the 'postmodern'. The core of the volume is made up of extensive discussions of individual poets, from W. B. Yeats and W. H. Auden to contemporary poets such as Simon Armitage and Carol Ann Duffy. In its coverage of the development, themes and contexts of modern poetry, this Companion is the most useful guide available for students, lecturers and readers. 410 0$aCambridge companions to literature. 606 $aEnglish poetry$y20th century$xHistory and criticism 615 0$aEnglish poetry$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a821.9109 702 $aCorcoran$b Neil 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996201142303316 996 $aThe Cambridge companion to twentieth-century English poetry$92493494 997 $aUNISA
