Description

This work considers the development of the lyric form in recent American poetry of the past three decades. By concentrating on the writing of Charles Bernstein, Michael Palmer and Lyn Hejinian, the author considers the attempts of contemporary poetry to problematise the identification of the lyric as a static model of subjectivity.
