Sanders and Company OUR PRICE: $17.01 Product Type: Paperback - Other Formats Published: December 1991 Annotation: This new edition of William Pratt's indispensable anthology of Southern poetry, The Fugitive Poets, contains an expanded selection of poems and poets not included in the original, including six poems by Laura Riding, the only female member of the Fugitive group. Originally published in The Fugitive magazine from 1922 to 1925, the group dominated by Robert Penn Warren, John Crowe Ransom, Donald Davidson, and Allen Tate formed the major school of 20th Century poetry in America. This collection chronicles the impact of literary modernism on these (mostly) Southern poets as their region was taking its "backward glance" before stepping over into the modern world. |
