Opis

At the threshold of the twentieth century, English and American poetry witnessed tremendous changes in form and content due to the influences of the two Great Wars, the Great Depression and the political conflicts that shaped the new ideologies and peoples' new realizations of them. Ezra Pound's motto "make it new" embodies such kind of tendencies that prevailed throughout the modern times. This book sheds light on the main trends that shaped modern English and American poetry.
