520 _a"Selections from Modern Poets" by Sir John Collings Squire is an anthology of contemporary poetry compiled in the early 20th century. It focuses on a selection of modern poets who were alive and writing by 1919, showcasing their lyrical works while noting the absence of several prominent figures. The collection aims to reflect the vibrant flowering of poetic expression in the early 20th century, emphasizing the beauty and significance of shorter lyrical poems. The opening of the anthology sets the stage for Squire's curation, providing a preface that explains his subjective choice of poets and the criteria that underpins his selections. He outlines his belief in the merit of the included poems, expressing a desire to highlight the unique lyrical qualities of his chosen poets while acknowledging the limits of his collection. Squire also raises rhetorical questions about the lack of ambitious large-scale works in contemporary poetry and reflects on the nature of poetic recognition—highlighting those poets who thrive on lyrical brevity and depth. The introductory remarks establish the context for the rich array of verses that follow, inviting readers to engage with the lyrical exploration of human thought and experience.
