The impact of socio-Historical Events on British poetry of 1920

Journal Title: Applied Science Reports - Year 2014, Vol 8, Issue 3

Abstract

 The present article tries to examine and sketch the ways in which the poetry of 1920 has engaged with the events of the decade and to construct a narrative of the decade through the poetry. It attempts to plot connections between society, history, narration and poetry. The study will also show that poetry can be effectively used to explore questions of gender, national identity, social and political history, and philosophical issues. Moreover, this paper will reassert that all poetry is historically produced and consumed, and is part of the intertextuality wave of discourses that structure our understanding of society and identity.
