| Summary: | This is a major new comparative study of six significant modern poets from the Anglophone postcolonial world: Louis MacNeice, Seamus Heaney, A.K. Ramanujan, Les Murray, Judith Wright and Derek Walcott. It looks at the way in which cultural conflicts in Ireland, India, Australia and the Caribbean are explored in the work of these poets., and moves the discussion of postcolonial poetry forward by applying transnational perspectives to the subject while situating the work of these poets in specific national and cultural contexts. Written in an accessible and approachable style, it will be of interest not only to specialists in postcolonial literatures, but also to readers of modern and contemporary poetry more generally. |
