Portada
University of New Mexico Press, 1983 - 221 páginas
Castro examines the growing interest by 20th century American poets in the rich tradition of Native American cultures, and their efforts to incorporate Native American themes into their works and personal lives. Beginning with a description of the role of early 20th century poets, anthologizers and popularizers to stimulate their contemporaries to consider the Indian relevance to American cultural identity, poetry and poetics, the author devotes separate chapters to Charles Olson, Jerome Rothenberg and Gary Snyder and to the works of Lew Sarrett and John Neihardt. Also considers such writers as Vachel Lindsay, William Carols Williams, and Hart Crane, who believed in the tradition as well. Concludes with a discussion of the works of Native American poets and critics such as Geary Hobson, Leslie Marmon Silko and Simon Ortiz. ISBN 0-8263-0672-1 : $22.50.
