Tendencies In Modern American Poetry is a critical analysis of the contemporary poetry scene in America, written by renowned poet and critic Amy Lowell. First published in 1917, the book explores the various trends and techniques that were emerging in American poetry at the time, including imagism, free verse, and the use of everyday language.Lowell provides a detailed analysis of the work of several prominent poets of the time, including Ezra Pound, T.S. Eliot, and Robert Frost, among others. She also discusses the impact of European modernism on American poetry and the ways in which American poets were responding to this influence.Throughout the book, Lowell emphasizes the importance of poetry as an art form and argues for the need to break away from traditional forms and conventions in order to create new and innovative works. She also addresses the role of the poet in society and the ways in which poetry can be used to express social and political ideas.Overall, Tendencies In Modern American Poetry is a significant contribution to the study of American poetry and a valuable resource for anyone interested in the development of modernist poetry in the early 20th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
