The poetry of the First World War remains a singularly popular and
powerful body of work. This Companion brings together leading
scholars in the field to re-examine First World War poetry in
English at the start of the centennial commemoration of the war. It
offers historical and critical contexts, fresh readings of the
important soldier-poets, and investigations of the war poetry of
women and civilians, Georgians and Anglo-American modernists and of
poetry from England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales and the former
British colonies. The volume explores the range and diversity of
this body of work, its rich afterlife and the expanding horizons
and reconfiguration of the term 'First World War Poetry'. Complete
with a detailed chronology and guide to further reading, the
Companion concludes with a conversation with three poets - Michael
Longley, Andrew Motion and Jon Stallworthy - about why and how the
war and its poetry continue to resonate with us.
