The Selected Poems of Yvor Winters, Paperback / softback Book

The Selected Poems of Yvor Winters Paperback / softback

Edited by R. L. Barth

Paperback / softback

Description

Yvor Winters (1900-1968) was a friend, colleague, and teacher to poets of several generations from Hart Crane and Allen Tate to J.

V. Cunningham, Turner Cassity, and Edgar Bowers to Robert Hass, Philip Levine, and Robert Pinsky.

His impact on mid- to late-twentieth-century poetry is profound.

This stems in large part from his own poetry, which was a reflection of his critical thinking about poetry, and which underwent substantive changes over his career as a poet.

His collected poems won the Bollingen Prize in 1960. This retrospective of one hundred poems, edited by the poet and publisher R.

L. Barth, is compiled from Winters’s published and unpublished work and features an introductory overview of his life and career by Helen Pinkerton Trimpi, a former student of Winters’s and a distinguished scholar of American literature.
