HARMONY OF TRADITION AND NOVELTY IN ENGLISH POETRY

Abstract

The harmony between tradition and innovation, the combination of individuality and imitation is one of the main problems that arise when analyzing the work of each artist. Especially when we talk about such a complex artistic process as the beginning of the ХХ century, our attention is drawn to the emergence of an individual author's style, new ideas and themes. The article analyzes the gradual development of various trends in English poetry of the ХХ century, the relationship between tradition and innovation from the point of view of artistic movements. In addition, the works of such poets as E.Pound, T.S.Eliot and W.B.Yеates are analyzed from the point of view of tradition and innovation.
