As such, the college was home to and served as inspiration for many modern American poets. Some, including Robert Creeley, Denise Levertov, and Edward Dorn, appeared in Donald Allen's groundbreaking \u003ci\u003eNew American Poetry\u003c\/i\u003e anthology, published in 1960, later becoming part of part of the American poetry canon. However, many of the Black Mountain College school of writers have been overlooked. \u003ci\u003eThe Anthology of Black Mountain College Poetry\u003c\/i\u003e features over fifty poets selected with an expansive critical lens, including works written by artists not typically seen as poets, including composer John Cage, architect Buckminster Fuller, and visual artist Josef Albers. Many years in the making, this book paints the clearest picture of the poetry and poets of Black Mountain College yet.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56794627932534,"sku":"9781469683447","price":34.36,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_38131184.jpg?v=1764851004","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9781469683447-the-anthology-of-black-mountain-college-poetry","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
