Political and protesting, these poems explore concepts of modernity, English identity, and historicity. Influenced by the Russians and Ezra Pound, Davie reinterprets Modernism for a 1940s world. Obsessed with the tonalities and vernacular of language, Davie works in the mediums of essay-poem, love lyric, satire, translation, epistle, eclogue, and other forms.
