As \u003cstrong\u003eCary Nelson\u003c\/strong\u003e shows, it is not only our image of the past but also our sense of the present and future that changes when we recover these revolutionary memories. Making a forceful case for political poetry \u003cem\u003eas\u003c\/em\u003e poetry, \u003cstrong\u003eNelson\u003c\/strong\u003e brings to bear his extraordinary knowledge of American poets, radical movements, and social struggles in order to bring out an undervalued strength in a literature often left at the canon's edge. Focused in part of the red decade of the 1930s, \u003cem\u003eRevolutionary\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cem\u003eMemory\u003c\/em\u003e revitalizes biographical criticism for writers on the margin and shows us for the first time how progressive poets fused their work into a powerful chorus of political voices.
