From a letter to his son, cited in the Foreword: "A faith in the wisdom and love of God causes me to believe that there are things called evil in human society are due to human selfishness and ignorance, or both, and experience of their effects are needed stimulants to progress towards love and wisdom . . . the time will come when force, as expressed in warfare or police compulsion, will not be needed in our society after causes of selfishness and ignorance have been outgrown; but the experiences of their consequences are a necessary education to produce that result. / Some of us already see that the present chaos is forcing us to understand that our earth must, sooner or later, adopt a reign of universal law, resulting in Tennyson's vision: "Till the war-drum throbbed no longer and the / battle flags were furled / In the Parliament of man, the Federation of the world."

Book First Edition
Brossura. Condition: buono. Dust Jacket Condition: molto buono. prima edizione. Tradizione e modernità, raffinatezza e violenza, culto di un passato pionieristico e proiezione verso il futuro, sono i poli opposti e irriducibilmente attivi della storia tutta contemporanea, si può dire, sin dalle sue non lontane origini della poesia statunitense. Come ricorda Carlo Izzo nell'introduzione a questa antologia, i primi lirici di lingua inglese che possano definirsi, in senso proprio, americani, scrissero le loro opere dopo i primi decenni del secolo scorso. Da allora, e nello spazio di poco più di cent'anni, personalità varie e potenti a cominciare da E.A. Poe e da Walt Whitman, per continuare con Emily Dickinson, Lee Masters, Frost, Sandburg, ecc. hanno contribuito a fare della poesia statunitense un nitido microcosmo nel quale si riflettono vitalità e lacerazioni, ricchezza e contrasti d'una realtà sociale fra le più fertili, drammatiche e inquietanti che l'umanità abbia mai conosciuto. Molteplici e discordanti, le voci dei poeti presenti in questa raccolta testimoniano, tuttavia, di una sottile, implicita coerenza: quella che nasce dalla fedeltà integrale al proprio destino di uomini e ai legami che uniscono tale destino a un tempo, a un ambiente, a un paesaggio. L'americanità è, insomma, l'humus sotterraneo che avvicina e rende paradossalmente fraterni alcuni dei più prestigiosi esponenti della poesia colta del nostro tempo da Pound a Eliot, da Cummings a William Carlos Williams, da Allen Tate a Robert Lowell e gli anonimi cantori negri degli spirituals e dei blues.
