Poetry in Theory: An Anthology 1900-2000 brings together key critical and theoretical texts from the twentieth century which have animated debates about modern poetry.
  • Helps readers to think critically about the nature of modern poetry, and to engage with broader questions about aesthetics, language, culture and imagination.
  • Includes texts by poets, critics, theorists and philosophers, ranging from Ezra Pound to Jacques Derrida.
  • Texts in translation from French, German, Spanish, Italian and Russian are presented alongside the work of writers from Britain, Ireland, the United States, Africa, India and the Caribbean.
  • Each text is accompanied by a brief biographical and thematic introduction.
  • A system of cross-referencing points up significant connections and disagreements between the texts.
  • Includes a thematic index and chronology.
