QR code
"Studies of Contemporary Poets" by Mary Sturgeon is a literary criticism work written in the early 20th century. The book delves into the lives and works of significant poets from the modern era, discussing their contributions and the context of their poetry within contemporary society. Through her analysis, Sturgeon highlights the unique voices and themes that characterize the poetry of the period, offering insights into the evolving nature of poetic expression and
its relationship to modernity. The opening of the book serves as an introduction to Sturgeon's exploration of modern poets, starting with Lascelles Abercrombie. It discusses the distinctive qualities that make his work resonate with the complexities of the early 20th century, such as the synthesis of various poetic elements and themes of social conscience and human experience. Sturgeon emphasizes how Abercrombie's poetry embodies the spirit of his age, while also noting a broader examination of contemporary poetry, setting the stage for subsequent analyses of other poets featured in the collection.
