Poetry: A Magazine of Verse

Influential US literary magazine. One of the first ‘little magazines’ of the early 20th century, and still published today, it was founded in Chicago in 1912 by Harriet Monroe (1860–1936) with the poet Ezra Pound as foreign editor. It introduced many major modern poets, including T S Eliot, Wallace Stevens, William Carlos Williams, Marianne Moore, and Carl Sandburg, and it printed the manifesto of Imagism.
