Overview
First published in 1947, Poetry and the People presents a survey of English poetry from the earliest times till 1940s, viewed from an unusual angle. The author argues that English Poetry is unpopular because the sources of its inspiration were diverted during the Renaissance into aristocratic and academic channels.
