A new poetic century demands a new set of approaches. This
Companion shows that American poetry of the twenty-first century,
while having important continuities with the poetry of the previous
century, takes place in new modes and contexts that require new
critical paradigms. Offering a comprehensive introduction to
studying the poetry of the new century, this collection highlights
the new, multiple centers of gravity that characterize American
poetry today. Essays on African American, Asian American, Latinx,
and Indigenous poetries respond to the centrality of issues of race
and indigeneity in contemporary American discourse. Other essays
explore poetry and feminism, poetry and disability, and queer
poetics. The environment, capitalism, and war emerge as poetic
preoccupations, alongside a range of styles from spoken word to the
avant-garde, and an examination of poetry's place in the creative
writing era.
