(This anthology of 200 poems was chosen for its relevance ...)
This anthology of 200 poems was chosen for its relevance and multi-culturalism for South African students in the 1990s. The choice includes unusual, humourous, erotic, and politically pertinent poems by classic and modern authors - a substantial number of which are by women. Half the poems are modern, of which more than half are African/South African, inclusive of poems in local dialects and indigenous languages in translation. The text includes biographical headers, glosses, footnotes, a glossary of literary terms, and examples of methods of analysis and workshop suggestions are also provided.
