Ancient Myths in Modern Poets is a book written by Helen Archibald Clarke that explores the influence of ancient myths on modern poetry. The book delves into the works of several poets, including T.S. Eliot, W.B. Yeats, and Robert Graves, and examines how they have incorporated elements of Greek, Roman, and Norse mythology into their poetry. Clarke provides detailed analyses of specific poems and identifies the mythological references and allusions within them. The book also explores the ways in which the poets have adapted and reinterpreted these ancient myths to reflect contemporary concerns and issues. Through her analysis, Clarke demonstrates the enduring relevance and power of these ancient stories and their ability to inspire and inform modern poetry. Ancient Myths in Modern Poets is a fascinating exploration of the intersection between ancient mythology and modern literature, and will be of interest to students and scholars of poetry, mythology, and literary criticism.1910.
