20th Century Poetry

web sites

by Catherine Wieder

(This is very much a work in progress)

The ambition of the page is to list all published/produced 20th Century web sites of American, English, Irish, Scottish, Welsh, Australian etc. poetry, in short, poetry written in contemporary English. We do our research largely from private and other libraries and so it is next to impossible to track publications other than English to start with.
