Book Synopsis Anglophone Poetry in Colonial India, 1780-1913 by : Mary Ellis Gibson
Book excerpt: Gibson (English and gender studies, U. of North Carolina at Greensboro) collects and introduces the works of 34 poets writing in English in colonial India from 1780 to 1913 (the long 19th century). The majority of poets are, unsurprisingly, of British origin, but the works of a number of native Indian poets are included as well, Nobel winner Rabindranath Tagore perhaps the most notable of them. Gibson includes notes on vocabulary and historical and cultural references and includes biographical introductions for the poets. Annotation ©2011 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com).
