    If we conceive of the poetry that has been written in English in the last twelve months as a kind of Purgatory, a mountainous cone like Dante’s, with a spiral pathway leading to its summit, we shall find among the one hundred and seventyodd volumes on its lower rounds no ponderable significance; but midway in the ascent we come to a score or more of poets with something to say for themselves.

    1905 September 29, Ferris Greenslet, “Significant Poetry”, in The Atlantic, archived from the original on 30 Sep 2025
