Handbook of American Poetry

This handbook offers scholars an overview of the state of research and students a sense of how American poetry - from its first forms evolving in the 17th-century settler colonies to its current digital modes - has addressed issues and experiences central to human consciousness and to political life over five centuries of cultural practice. At the same time, it aims to show how poetry, philosophy, and theory have always been involved in productive dialogues.
