"Selected Poems of Amy Lowell" offers a definitive exploration of the work of one of the most influential figures in early twentieth-century American literature. Amy Lowell, a leader of the Imagist movement and a posthumous recipient of the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry, was known for her vivid imagery and her pioneering use of "polyphonic prose" and free verse.
This collection, curated by John Livingston Lowes, brings together a wide range of Lowell's most significant pieces. The volume showcases her technical mastery and her ability to evoke powerful sensory experiences through language. From delicate, brief lyrics to sweeping historical narratives, the poems included here reflect the breadth of her intellectual curiosity and her rebellious spirit against traditional Victorian poetic structures.
Readers will find representative works from her major volumes, illustrating her evolution as an artist and her contribution to the Modernist movement. "Selected Poems of Amy Lowell" remains an essential resource for those interested in the development of modern poetry and the legacy of a woman who challenged the literary status quo of her time.
