Description:
This book is a comprehensive study of Australian poetry from the colonial period to the present. Informed by contemporary critics of romanticism and philosophers of negativity, Paul Kane extends and revises our current understanding of Australian poetry from both a historical and a theoretical viewpoint. Focusing on the work of well- known and influential poets, he gives close and detailed readings of their work, not just to illustrate his argument but to reach an understanding of important poems and the contributions these poets have made individually.
