@article{V_2025, title={Waste Landscapes and Poetic Renewal in Modernist Poetry}, volume={10}, url={http://dx.doi.org/10.22161/ijels.101.1}, DOI={10.22161/ijels.101.1}, abstractNote={This paper examines how Modernist poetry addresses ‘waste landscape’ or ‘waste’ as both a theme and aesthetic device, revealing a ‘waste management’ re-negotiation with the content and form of the poetry. I investigate how a complex renegotiation presented ‘waste’ under the new forms of meaning and knowledge. Through various kinds of bolder rearrangements made by the modernists, the waste landscapes are fixed into a new jigsaw, of an exteriorized other ‘self.’ I analyse the works of T.S. Eliot, Ezra Pound, Marianne Moore, H.D., Hart Crane, William Carlos Williams, and Wallce Stevens, to befittingly re-read into these waste landscapes. }, number={1}, journal={International Journal of English Literature and Social Sciences}, publisher={AI Publications}, author={V, Tanika Rajeswari}, year={2025}, pages={001–006} }
