Politics are not alien to poetry and in his Wiles Lectures Sir Maurice Bowra covered the main lines of European poetry during the first sixty years of the twentieth century in so far as it directly related to politics. He illuminates the three poetical forms with a political influence: the prophetic; the intimate and personal.
