"A valuable tool for students interested in 20th-century American poetry.' - Booklist/RBB

This volume contains over 400 entries that treat a broad range of individual poets and poems, along with many articles devoted to topics, schools, or periods of American verse in the twentieth century. Entries fall into three main categories:

• poet entries, which provide biographical and cultural contexts for the author's career;
• entries on individual works, which offer closer explication of the most resonant poems in the 20th-century canon;
• topical entries, looking at eras, school, themes, and verse traditions of the USA.
