 Synthetic vernacular poetry and transatlantic modernism, 1922--2002 (T. S. Eliot, Hugh MacDiarmid, Scotland, Basil Bunting, England, Kamau Brathwaite, Barbados, Melvin B. Tolson, Harryette Romell Mullen).
Finally, Chapter IV examines the poetry of Melvin B. Tolson and Harryette Mullen---two Black American poets whose reception and self-representation testifies to the usefulness of an idea of synthetic vernacular poetry in defining the problematic category of African-American modernism.
The idea of synthetic vernacular poetry is both a freestanding critical and linguistic tool and a response to the outworn privileging of internationalist currents in the literary history of modernism.
When analyzed via this concept, the literary history of British, Caribbean, and American poetic modernism must be altered in order to make room for both local and cosmopolitan languages and ideologies.
