Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is particularly concerned with the literary development of American poetry during a period of great social and political change. Taking as its starting point the belief that poetry develops as a response to the world's need for meaning, the author traces the changes in American poetry from its early dependence on European models to its later achievement of a distinctive national voice. Thematically, this book explores how the major poetic movements of the 19th century - romanticism, transcendentalism, realism, and modernism - responded to the changing social and political landscape of the time. The author suggests that each movement can be seen as a way of coping with the challenges and opportunities presented by a rapidly changing world, a world increasingly defined by democratic principles and capitalist expansion. In this way, this book offers an insightful and nuanced understanding of the development of American poetry, situating it within the broader context of American history and national identity.
