註釋
In this text, former Poet Laureate Robert Hass attempts to redefine the American poetic canon, arguing that American poetry is more than transplanted from British verse. Hass explores the multitude of influences on American cultural heritage - which he describes as less melting pot than tossed salad - where poetry of African Americans mixes with work from Latin America; where Jewish Diaspora collides with poetry and music from a host of Asian cultures; where oral literatures of Native Americans encompass the sacred and the profane.
