американская поэзия

Хорошая статья, хоть и слишком тенденциозная.

The last third of the 20th century saw a succession of short-lived schools--Black Mountain, Deep Image, LANGUAGE poetry--each of which consisted of a handful of professors advertising their wares with manifestos, using the ritualised language of aesthetic revolution inherited from the avant-garde of the first world war era. Under any label, the would-be revolutionary professor-poets all write pretty much the same kind of brief random descriptions and meditations in the same kind of amputated prose.

Аминь.
