Contemporary British and Irish Poetry

Sarah Broom

Nearly every overview or anthology of contemporary poetry in Britain and Ireland published in the last two decades has asserted the radical democratization and pluralization in poetry publishing and reviewing that has occurred since the 1960s. As a general trend this is undeniable. The poetry scene in the 1950s in Britain was overwhelmingly white, male, middle-class and centered. around Oxbridge and London, and in Ireland (where class and regional relationships are differently inflected) it was overwhelmingly white and male. Since the 1960s and 70s there has been a gradual but radical diversification of the poetry being publisher and reviewed, so that women poets, poets from working-class, rural and non-metropolitan backgrounds, and poets from ethnic minorities have become prominent and recognized figures within the poetry world.
