I'm not sure why this is separate from the List of schools of poetry page, other than the mere listing here compared to the cursory summary there. Why not merge them? Sam 21:49, 29 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. So I have done just that! —Theo (Talk) 17:15, 26 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Something's missing[edit]

I feel as if we are missing out on a few centuries' worth of literature, namely everything between the Prehistoric and the 16th Century. What of Islamic poetic movements? Greek and Latin ones? I'm sure something existed which can be classified as a movement prior to the 16th century. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.210.124.43 (talk) 12:57, 5 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Robert Frost[edit]

Which "school" of poetry did Robert Frost belong to?

Gloriously, Frost belongs to no school or movement. —Theo (Talk) 13:33, 16 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I am at a loss to understand the value of this to Wiktionary but that is a problem for that project. We should, however, ensure that such transwiking does not result in the articles deletion from the encyclopedia.—Theo (Talk) 13:28, 16 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It Would Help To Group Poetry Schools By Century, Since that is How Most Universities Group Them[edit]

Great article-- here is a suggested improvement-- It Would Help To Group Scools By Century, Since that is How Most Universities Group Them. That would make this article a more helpful study guide.

Done. You are encouraged to make such changes yourself. —Theo (Talk) 13:29, 16 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Pastoralism[edit]

Pastoralism is given under Nineteenth century, despite the description namechecking Edmund Spenser and Christopher Marlowe (Elizabethan/Shakespearian), describing them, along with William Wordsworth as "later pastoral poets". As such, shouldn't this category be placed somewhere between "Prehistoric" and "Elizabethan and Shakespearian"? Theelf29 (talk) 00:55, 16 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

bias[edit]

The wikiproject about bias should look at this article: only classical french and british forms, not any word about movements forn elsewhere (or almost any) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.125.232.105 (talk) 14:22, 31 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. I just added a globalize template, and inserted some Japanese schools into the alphabetical list. --gråb whåt you cån (talk) 14:38, 16 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

it's still biased--193.152.180.233 (talk) 13:27, 25 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

No talking[edit]

Well, well.....this is a respite from the verbose Wiki talk pages I have visited recently.

Why, I wonder, is Flarf included in the list of schools at the bottom but not in the alphebetized list within the article.

The serious student of poetry would think that the list at the bottom would be identical to that within the article. What is the relationship of the two?

Or does it even matter? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 111.164.225.241 (talk) 15:54, 28 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
