| Summary | "The Younger American Poets" by Jessie Belle Rittenhouse is a collection of literary studies written in the early 20th century. This work delves into the poetry of a selection of younger American poets, exploring their contributions and distinct styles within the broader context of contemporary poetry. Rittenhouse offers insight into the thematic elements and individual characteristics of these poets, likely focusing on their artistic approaches and the socio-cultural conditions of their time. The beginning of this collection introduces Richard Hovey, characterizing him as a poet grounded in convictions and comradeship rather than mere whimsies of rhyme. Hovey is depicted as an artist deeply engaged with the essence of life, capturing the vibrancy of nature alongside themes of human connection and national pride. Rittenhouse highlights specific works and ideas from Hovey, noting his Whitmanesque influence while asserting his unique voice that emphasizes a harmonious relationship with the world around him. This opening segment sets the stage for further explorations of the varied styles and themes represented by the younger poets discussed in the subsequent chapters.
