Description: One of the great issues of the long-running Jon Silkin-edited Stand literary quarterly, published in London. This is volume 20, #2. A very good copy. See photo #2 for complete contents. Highlights include: "Common Values?: An Argument." This is a first-rate symposium on the topic of English poetry and society from the pens of Editor Silkin, C.H. Sisson, Donald Davie, Cairns Craig and (summed up by) E.P. Thompson. Much here of modernism versus the traditional in poetry, "Time" vs. "Space." Also, on the principles of the loosely defined "Left" vs. Right" in English society and the work of its poets, or maybe, in E.P. Thompson's words, not so much poetry's "commitment" to something, as about a "commitment" of people to poetry. A story by Ian Crichton Smith, "The Listeners." Desmond Graham on Andrew Motion's first volume of verse, "An Attitude of Mind," among other reviews. Poems by Donald Davie, Tony Harrison, C.H. Sisson, and others. See photo #2 for detailed contents.
