Basil Bunting: Resistance, History and Myth
Résumé
"This collection of 15 essays explores how poetry and resistance interact, set against philosophical, historical and cultural background. From this perspective, the resistance of poetry is connected with the human call to solidarity, resilience, and, ultimately, meaning. The volume covers poetry from Hardy, Yeats and Auden, among others, to contemporary writers like Hugo Williams and Linton Kwesi Johnson"―Provided by publisher
