In England the Victorian Age was about to become the past and a new age of worldwide wars of horror and slaughter would envelop and decimate generations, forever staining mankind. The Century would see the World discover strengths. The Democracies would stand firm against Fascism and later Communism yet still keep its own elite and privileged in power and the rest of us underfoot. The World was more connected than ever before. Culture accelerated its kaleidoscopic and interwoven journey. Transport delivered people by car and train and then aeroplane to far flung corners of the globe. Empires were at their zenith and ready to fragment with new nations, many troubled, rising from their decay. The natural world continued to be plundered and pillaged for its resources by industries who pledged ‘more’ and ‘better’ and would clothe and feed a growing world yet sow the seeds now ready to devastate us in our current times. The globe was as vibrant and violent as troubled and tarnished as it ever was. But new ideas, new political systems, new times changed everything once again. 1 - The Poets of the Early Twentieth Century - Volume 2 - An Introduction 2 - The Lions by Joseph Mary Plunkett 3 - 1841-1891 by Joseph Mary Plunkett 4 - If We Return by F W Harvey 5 - The Soldier Speaks by F W Harvey 6 - The Negro Soldiers by Roscoe C Jamison 7 - Into Battle by Julian Grenfell 8 - Prayer For Those on the Staff by Julian Grenfell 9 - Hymn by Fenton Johnson 10 - Tired by Fenton Johnson 11 - Sonnet I by Fernando Pessoa 12 - If, After I Die by Fernando Pessoa 13 - I Have A Rendezvous with Death by Alan Seeger 14 - All Thats Not Love by Alan Seeger 15 - Maktoob by Alan Seeger 16 - The Unseen Planets by Raymond Chandler 17 - The Poet's Knowledge by Raymond Chandler 18 - I Saw A Man This Morning by Patrick Shaw Stewart 19 - Whispers of Immortality by T S Eliot 20 - The Love Song of J Alfred Prufrock by T S Eliot 21 - Preludes by T S Eliot 22 - The Wounded Bird by Katherine Mansfield 23 - Stars by Katharine Mansfield 24 - A Fine Day by Katherine Mansfield 25 - I Taught Myself To Live Simply by Anna Akhmatova 26 - When I Write Poems by Anna Akhmatova 27 - Poetry by Claude McKay 28 - The White House by Claude McKay 29 - The Lynching by Claude McKay 30 - Strange Hells by Ivor Gurney 31 - Crucifix Corner by Ivor Gurney 32 - Serenade by Ivor Gurney 33 - Break of Day in the Trenches by Isaac Rosenberg 34 - Dead Man's Dump by Isaac Rosenberg 35 - August 1914 by Isaac Rosenberg 36 - Journey's End by Zora Neale Hurston 37 - The Dog Tupman by Stella Benson 38 - The Ballad of the Harp-Weaver by Edna St Vincent Millay 39 - My Heart Being Hungry by Edna St Vincent Millay 40 - What Lips My Lips Have Kissed, And Where, And Why by Edna St Vincent Millay 41 - Sonnet XVIII - I, Being Born a Woman by Edna St Vincent Millay 42 - Unity by Cesar Vallejo 43 - Love by Edith Sodergran 44 - On Foot I Had to Cross the Solar System by Edith Sodergran 45 - Insouciance by Richard Aldington 46 - Goodbye by Richard Aldington 47 - Grey Hairs by Marina Ivanova Tsvetaeva 48 - Lady with Cam
