- catalog abstract ""British Poets of the first forty years of this century - poets whom the literary establishment has placed behind Thomas Hardy, W.B. Yeats, and T.S. Eliot, in reputation more than in skill - have inherited much of the formers' attention: Wilfred Owen, Edward Thomas, Robert Graves, D.H. Lawrence, H.D., Edith Sitwell, Stevie Smith, W.H. Auden, Dylan Thomas, Edwin Muir, and Louis McNeice. In his comprehensive analysis of this prolific and dramatic period in the composition of verse, James Persoon discuses the important works of these artists as well as those of Britain's lesser known poets." "Persoon insists on the centrality of war in considering British poetry of this period, using the awareness of war in British life as his primary metaphor."--Jacket.".
