Table Of Content
65 new poems make it one of the most inclusive introductory collections available. New additions include: important canonical poets such as John Donne, Andrew Marvell, and Elizabeth Bishop; well-known 20th century poets such as Charles Simic, Margaret Atwood, and Lucie Brock-Broido; culturally diverse poets such as Victoria Chang, Eduardo Corral, Terrance Hayes, Srikanth Reddy; new contemporary voices such as Shara McCallum, D.A. Powell, and Timothy Donnelly. A new chapter, "Poets on Poetry" addresses the question, "What is lyric poetry?" from the point of view of such poets as Sir Philip Sydney, William Wordsworth, Emily Dickinson, Wallace Stevens, Marianne Moore, Jorie Graham, and more. This intergenerational commentary helps orient students to poets' perspectives on their craft, and gives context to the form's enduring concerns. Re:Writing for Literature , a robust online resource center, includes full biographies of poets included in the book with links to further resources such as audio files of poems and practical help for students doing close readings, research, and writing. Instructors also get access to "Teaching Poetry" on Bits , a Bedford/St.Martin's blog with more ideas for the poetry classroom.
Synopsis
Many students today are puzzled by the meaning and purpose of poetry. Poems, Poets, Poetry demystifies the form and introduces students to its artistry and pleasures, using methods that Helen Vendler has successfully used herself over her long, celebrated career. Guided by Vendler's erudite yet down-to-earth approach, students at all levels can benefit from her authoritative instruction. Her blend of new and canonical poets includes the broadest selection of new and multi-racial poets offered by any introductory text. Comprehensive and astute, this text engages students in effective ways of reading -- and taking delight in -- poetry.
