Request for help on updating modernpoetry.org.uk
I've been updating modernpoetry.org.uk over the summer, with gradual uploads as I have done so. I'd really appreciate any suggestions on two aspects:
In general, indeed, any additions, corrections and emendations to my listings on the site will be greatly appreciated.
- Video and audio material, especially video material. I really find this curiously difficult to respond to, much as I enjoy attending actual readings/performances. Were YouTube to cease to exist, I would be every unmoved. (It's my punishment for having to police classes of media students who were meant to be working, but preferred to catch up on those fascinating skateboard accident, skateboarding dogs and hypertrophied gonad clips that modern technology as so benevolently showered on adolescent males). So, any suggestions as to what may be the actual best clips online and any sites with a lot of accessible good material (not recorded in my listing on modernpoetry.org.uk) will be greatly appreciated and assistance duly recorded. I'm aware this is a hole in the site's coverage I ought to fill; but I can't on my own.
- List of Anthologies, Literary Histories & Critical Texts. What have I missed out that would interest and illuminate? I haven't access to a university library, so I really can only sample a fraction of what's published. Anything I need to add? There must be surely.
In general, indeed, any additions, corrections and emendations to my listings on the site will be greatly appreciated.

Your comments about teaching media very apposite. I'm still indentured.

Hi Peter,
For anthologies, you might have a look at:
20th Century Poetry and Poetics, edited by Gary Geddes (Oxford UP).
A widely used and praised anthology of poetry from Yeats to Leonard Cohen and beyond, with an absorbing selection of statements, letters, etc from poets about their poetics.
Index and info at OUP's website:
