The Cambridge Companion to American Poets brings together
thirty-one essays on some fifty-four American poets, spanning
nearly 400 years, from Anne Bradstreet to contemporary performance
poetry. This book also examines such movements in American poetry
as modernism, the Harlem (or New Negro) Renaissance, 'confessional'
poetry, the Black Mountain School, the New York School, the Beats,
and L=A=N=G=U=A=G=E poetry. Its reputable host of contributors
approach American poetry from perspectives as diverse as the poetry
itself. The result is a Companion concise enough to be read with
pleasure yet expansive enough to do justice to the many traditions
American poets have modified, inaugurated, and made their own.
