"Georgian Poetry 1918-19" by Sir Edward Howard Marsh is a collection of poetry published in the aftermath of World War I, during the early 20th century. This anthology assembles various works from poets who reflect the post-war landscape, showcasing their diverse styles and themes that capture the feelings of a society grappling with the realities of peace after conflict. The likely topic of the collection revolves around the exploration of human emotions, nature, and the impacts of recent history on individual and collective identity. At the start of the volume, the editor’s prefatory note sets a reflective tone, emphasizing that the writing of good poetry persisted despite the impact of war. The opening poem, "Witchcraft: New Style" by Lascelles Abercrombie, immerses readers in a vivid summer evening, contrasting the vibrant life and the clamor of a public house with a woman's mysterious strength and the tumultuous feelings of the men around her. Her assertion of control over a lost man serves as an allegory for the reclaiming of agency in an unstable world. The collection includes works by various poets, each contributing their voice to a rich tapestry of responses to contemporary issues such as longing, nature, identity, and memory.
