Klappentext A smart! eclectic analysis of nine long poems written by postmodernist poets both familiar and unfamiliar! canonical and marginalized. Zusammenfassung Addressing subjects as wide-ranging as angelology! the court masque! pop art! caricature! the cult of the ruin! hip-hop! Spenser's Irish policy! and the aesthetics of silence! Brian McHale pulls varied threads together to identify a repertoire of postmodernist elements characteristic of the long poems he examines.
