		After Greece’s independence, Greek poetry exhibited a new vigor in the works of Solomos, Kalvos and Valaoritis, faltered with the neo-classicists of the Athens school, was salvaged by Palamas and reached its heights with the generation of the thirties.

		The editors of Modern Greek Poetry: An Anthology, Nanos Valaoritis and Thanasis Maskaleris, are both poets as well as professors of literature; their interest, therefore, in Greek poetry is professional and the knowledge of their subject comprehensive.
