"This anthology encompasses the entire tradition of American war poetry, from our nation's birth in the Revolutionary War to the present-day War on Terrorism. Some of the most memorable and enduring poems in our literature have been written about war, and many of our major poets are represented in these pages. From "Paul Revere's Ride" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow to Quincy Troupe's "Transcircularities," this gathering of nearly two hundred poems establishes the standard for the genre while providing a historical record." "Narratives, meditations, elegies, lamentations, odes, tributes, and battle hymns - all deeply felt - reflect love of country, sacrifice, tragedy, glory, and sometimes disillusionment and dissent. This is poetry that establishes and preserves our national continuity, a poetry that remembers and gives voice to those who have fallen silent."--Jacket. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
