‘But Freebourne loved its steel’: American Great War poetry, modernity, and mobilization
Considerable attention has been given to American writers, including poets, who in the 1920s expressed disillusionment with US participation in the war. As such, these writers participated in a Modernist critique of the ideologies that supported US efforts to use the war as a lever to propel the United States into pre-eminence in a global capitalist system. My article focuses, rather, upon the ways that some poets during the war were already sati…
American Literature in Transition, 1910–1920
American Literature in Transition, 1910–1920 offers provocative new readings of authors whose innovations are recognized as inaugurating Modernism in US letters, including Robert Frost, Willa Cather, T. S. Eliot, Ezra Pound, Gertrude Stein, H. D., and Marianne Moore.

A Rose By Any Other Name: Charlotte Perkins Stetson (Gilman) and the Case for American Reform Socialism
While best known as a feminist author (and under the surname she adopted after her second marriage, in 1900), Charlotte Perkins Stetson held stronger commitments to movements advocating gradualist, or reform, socialism: Nationalism, Populism, and Fabianism.

Carl Sandburg: A Biography
Taming the Socialist: Carl Sandburg's Chicago Poems and its Critics
ARL Sandburg's reputation as the adulatory biographer of Lincoln and as a folksy, silver-haired singer of ballads and reciter of poems has obscured the radically innovative and oppositional character of his earlier poetic work. Set in the context of Sandburg's socialist politics of the teens rather than the moderate populism of his later career, the early poems emerge as protests both against much of conventional American political life and again…
