This ground-breaking anthology presents in chronological order over 400 poems written in the twentieth century. The authors, both published poets themselves, give an overview of each period of history, while notes to the poems place each one in its historical context and trace the century's poetic development. Concise biographies for each poet complete the anthology. By organizing the poems in chronological order, readers will see poets in a new light. Here A.E. Houseman, for example, rubs shoulders with T.S. Eliot, showing that traditional forms can hold their own against the modernist orthodoxy. Here are poets rescued from oblivion, such as the suffragette who wrote a compelling poem about her mistreatment in Holloway Prison in 1912 or the medical offer who went into Belsen with the British troops producing an eye-witness poem of lasting power. All the major events of the twentieth century are reflected in the choice of poems within these pages. This richly rewarding collection makes invaluable reading for poetry lovers all over the world.

The Advance of English Poetry in the Twentieth Century: Large Print William Lyon Phelps Where forlorn sunsets flare and fade On desolate sea and lonely sand, Out of the silence and the shade What is the voice of strange command Calling you still, as friend calls friend With love that cannot brook delay, To rise and follow the ways that wend Over the hills and far away? Hark in the city, street on street A roaring reach of death and life, Of vortices that clash and fleet And ruin in appointed strife, Hark to it calling, calling clear, Calling until you cannot stay From dearer things than your own most dear Over the hills and far away. Out of the sound of ebb and flow, Out of the sight of lamp and star, It calls you where the good winds blow, And the unchanging meadows are: From faded hopes and hopes agleam, It calls you, calls you night and day We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection.

The last century's 100 most enduring poems, selected and introduced by former Poet Laureate Mark Strand. Accounting for the great range of style and content with which poets such as W. H. Auden, Dylan Thomas, Federico García Lorca, Rainer Maria Rilke, William Butler Yeats, Pablo Neruda, and Jorge Luis Borges responded to the changes and challenges of the twentieth century, 100 Great Poems of the Twentieth Century is intended as both a unique compendium for the already well-versed and as an engaging introduction for those new to the expansive world of poetry. Alan Ginsberg's struggle—"What thoughts I have of you tonight, Walt Whitman....In my hungry fatigue, and shopping for images, I went into the neon fruit supermarket, dreaming of your enumerations!"—is echoed by other remarkable poets in this international collection of exciting and moving poems that are alike not in their length or for their status as seminal texts but because they are impossible to forget.

Excerpt from The Advance of English Poetry in the Twentieth Century The Great War has had a stimulating effect on the production Of poetry. Professional poets have been spokesmen for the inarticulate, and a host of hitherto unknown writers have acquired reputation. An immense amount of verse has been written by soldiers in active service. The Allies are fighting for human liberty, and this Idea is an inspiration. It is comforting to know that some who have made the supreme sacrifice will be remembered through their printed poems, and it is a pleasure to aid in giving them public recognition. Furthermore, the war, undertaken by Germany to dominate the world by crushing the power of Great Britain, has united all English-speaking people as nothing else could have done. In this book, all poetry written in the English language is considered as belonging to English literature. It should be apparent that I am not a sectarian in art, but am thankful for poetry wherever I find it. I have endeavored to make clear the artistic.

A mere means to relax on a leisurely day for some, and for others being life itself, poetry has been written on almost everything that exists around us-- from odes on seemingly insignificant objects to the lamentation of death of people revered worldwide. Poetry is something that is dream-like, and yet thought-provoking. The voyage into the beautiful and mesmerizing world of poetry in this edition begins in the fourteenth century with an extract from Chaucer's legendary work Canterbury Tales, and stops in the twentieth century with Dylan Thomas' power-packed poetry, his vehemence on fighting death till your last breath. Notes have been scattered throughout this edition, enriching your understanding of the poems' context, inspiration, varying interpretations, and even criticism. All this and much more lies ahead for you to discover in our eclectic collection of 50 World's Greatest Poems. " Poetry lifts the veil from the hidden beauty of the world." - Percy Bysshe Shelley ' Thus great with child to speak and helpless in my throes, Biting my truant pen, beating myself for spite, " Fool," said my Muse to me, " look in thy heart, and write." ' - Philip Sidney, Astrophil and Stella ' O Captain! my Captain! rise up and hear the bells; Rise up-- for you the flag is flung-- for you the bugle trills . . .' - Walt Whitman, O Captain! My Captain!
