A Hundred Voices

Excerpt from A Hundred Voices: And Other Poems From the Second Part of "Life Immovable" "Poetry has swung back to actuality, to heartiness and lustihood. And most of all, it has returned to democracy... a democracy of spirit and a democracy of speech.... Our poets are coming back to the oldest and most stirring tongue, they are using a language that is the language of the people. Nor is this a mere revolt from the stilted and aestheticized speech that was the expression of a narrowed and aestheticized vision of life. They have rediscovered the beauty, the dignity, I might almost say the divine core of the casual and commonplace. They are bringing to ordinary speech a new affection and interest, calling forth its natural warmth, its original power." With these words Louis Untermeyer describes the advent of the new spirit in American Poetry which has brought about the dethronement of what he aptly terms "cloudy and classical legendry and the intolerable prurience of the Puritans."
