thanks for posting these links, Zoe, interesting takes, all
I found Edna Longley;'s idea of "international" as masking nationalisms interesting and your own comment on the irony of Longley's approach:
"At this point she compared two poems, one by Prynne and one by MacNeice and proceeded to use MacNeice as a stick to beat Prynne with. I found this extremely ironic as she seemed to be doing something of which she accuses factional poetry groups: being negative, having exclusive doctrines, shunning, keeping a sense of superiority and a sense of persecution."
sadly rings true all over the place ....
