(American Book Award Winner) The previous two volumes of this acclaimed anthology (the first book won the Josephine Miles Award of the PEN/Oakland Chapter) set forth a decentered revision of 20th-century poetry from the perspective of its many avant-gardes. In this third volume, itself the winner of the American Book Award, editors Jerome Rothenberg and Jeffrey Robinson bring a radically new interpretation to the poetry of the past century, viewing the work of the romantic and post-romantic poets as an international, collective, often utopian enterprise that became the foundation of experimental modernism. The editors feature prose poetry, verbal-visual experiments, and sound poetry, along with more familiar forms seen here anew, illuminating the process by which romantics and post- romantics challenged orthodoxies and propelled poetry into the avant-garde. "This volume ... is every bit as challenging, unsettling, and surprising as its predecessors. It provokes us to take a fresh look at the achievements of 19th-century poets and of modernists often assumed to have defined themselves mainly by refusing and rejecting what came before. We have much to learn from this book about the diversity of ways in which poetry has found forms for responding to the world of which it is a part."—William Keach
