Until now, most teaching has focused on the novel as the most useful way of raising issues of gender, ethnicity, theory, nationality, politics and social class. In <EM>The Twentieth Century in Poetry</EM> Peter Childs places literature in a wider social context and demonstrates that all poetry is historically produced and consumed and is part of our understanding of society and identity. This student-friendly critical survey includes chapters on:<BR> * the Georgians<BR> * First World War poetry<BR> * Eliot<BR> * Yeats<BR> * the thirties<BR> * post-war poetry<BR> * contemporary anthologies<BR> * women''s poetry<BR> * Northern Irish and black British poets<BR> It builds a narrative not of poetry in the twentieth century, but of the twentieth century in poetry.
