INTRODUCTION
1
Frames
contemporary poetry in the context of wider literary history:
its trends and movements, narratives of its current health or decline,
and the critical debate surrounding all of the above.
CHAPTER ONE
9
Anthologies and Canon Formation
This chapter addresses the ways in which the contemporary canon
is constructed and contested from one generation to the next with
particular reference to the role of the anthology. Engaging with
questions of nation, generation and representation, it examines the
work of anthologists including Sean O Brien, Michael Schmidt, Keith
Tuma and Roddy Lumsden.
CHAPTER TWO
32
Approaches to Contemporary British Poetry
Turning to individual critics, this chapter considers the challenge to
traditional criticism of literary theory and its aftermath. The role of
the poet-critic as a guarantor (or interrogator) of poetic authority is
examined through the contrasting examples of poet-critics Geoffrey
Hill and Paul Muldoon, while the category of poetic form is revisited
in the work of Angela Leighton and Peter McDonald.
CHAPTER THREE
54
Postcolonialism
This chapter studies the ways in which postcolonialism redraws the
critical map for the reading of poetry. The project of regional devolu¬
tion within the UK has renewed the critical focus initiated by Robert
Crawford on the
postcolonial
nature of
Briti
shness. Concepts of mar-
ginality and
hybridity,
as theorised by
Jahan Ramazani
and others,
vi
CONTENTS
are
tested against the work of poets engaging with the
postcolonial j
in a wide variety of ways, from Vahni Capildeo and Fred D Aguiar to
W.
N.
Herbert.
CHAPTER FOUR
81
Gender, Sexuality and Class
:
The intersections of gender, sexuality and class and the poem form
the focus for this chapter. Responses to the work of Medbh McGu-
ckian and Vona Groarke illustrate a tension between identity politics
and more formalist approaches drawing on theories of intertextuality,
while maleness and the sexing (or queering) of the lyric poem are also
examined. Questions of voice and class in the work of Tom Leonard,
Douglas Dunn and others are discussed, as is the often fractious
debate they stage with the politics of the lyric.
CHAPTER FIVE
110
Experiment and Language
This chapter looks at the experimental tradition, and the critique
of language and the self in which critics locate its differences from
more mainstream styles; background and context on publishers and
movements are provided. Veronica Forrest-Thomson and her the¬
ory of naturalisation offer a powerful anti-realist template, whose
effects can be traced in the work of poets and critics such as Peter
Manşon
and Andrew Duncan. While experimental poetry addresses
itself to questions of language, it does not do so at the expense of
questions of politics, as shown in the radical agenda of Keston Suth¬
erland, and his imbuing of experimental poetry with a new sense of
transformative possibility.
CHAPTER SIX
136
New Environments
This chapter looks at the new domains explored by ecopoetry. Jona¬
than Bate s Song of the Earth makes the neo-Romantic case for poetry
as a force of mediation and salvation, but closer analysis shows how
the ecocritic must strike a balance between the detached imagination
and ideological wish-fulfilment. These positions are explored in rela¬
tion to a range of poets including Kathleen Jamie, Helen
Macdonald,
and
R. F.
Langley, and the debates they have inspired.

CONCLUSION
161
Criticism
Today
Looking at the public face of poetry in Britain today, this chapter
considers the difficulty of
łmaking
it new in ways that go beyond
commodification and the selling short of the art in today s market
economy. Despite deep anxieties about the future of poetry and the
relationship of writer and reader and the general public, criticism
nevertheless manages to find fresh and resilient ways of keeping
going7.

INDEX
196
Written during a time of rapid social change, when the continued existence of the
United Kingdom has been subject to discussion as never before in recent history,
contemporary British poetry and its surrounding criticism are characterised by
diversity, contestation and reinvention. This Reader s Guide:
•
surveys the work of major critics such as Christopher Ricks, Edna Longley and
Geoffrey Hill, and both established and burgeoning poets such as Roy Fisher,
Medbh McGuckian and Helen
Macdonald
•
explores key topics including postcolonialism, gender and sexuality, class, nature
and the experimental tradition
•
analyses the role of poetry publishing, prizes and anthologies in canon-making
•
outlines the many critical approaches to poetry today and considers future
directions in criticism
•
foregrounds intersections between the historical and cultural contexts of current
critical debate.
Lucid and illuminating, this introductory guide provides a timely overview of the
key criticism and allows readers to orient themselves in the fast-evolving field of
contemporary British poetry.
