Cambridge University Press A History Of World War One Poetry

Situating First World War poetry in a truly global context, this book reaches beyond the British soldier-poet canon.A History of World War One Poetry examines popular and literary, ephemeral and enduring poems that the cataclysm of 1914-1918 inspired.Across Europe, poets wrestled with the same problem: how to represent a global conflict, dominated by modern technology, involving millions of combatants and countless civilians.For literary scholars this has meant discovering and engaging with the work of men and women writing in other languages, on other fronts, and from different national perspectives.Poems are presented in their original languages and in English translations, some for the very first time, while a Coda reflects on the study and significance of First World War poetry in the wake of the Centenary.A History of World War One Poetry offers a new perspective on the literary and human experience of 1914-1918.
