The book contains a contemporary mirror of "The Waste Land,"...

Genders, Races, and Religious Cultures in Modern American Poetry, 1908-1934
ISBN: 9780521483001 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 254 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych.

D., as well as Mina Loy, Countee Cullen, Alfred Kreymborg and Langston Hughes, writers still marginalized by existing constructions of modernism.
