The British Library: Discovering Literature - 20th Century

https://www.bl.uk/20th-century-literature 

From the British Library comes this remarkable, engaging collection of critical essays, videos, biographical sketches, and original documents related to 20th century British literature. Readers will find close readings of poetry by Sylvia Plath, W.H. Auden, and T.S. Elliot (among others); an essay about the role of music in influencing the work of W.H. Auden; and an essay about postcards sent by Angela Carter. Embedded within each of these essays are related materials from the British Library, including original manuscripts, copies of diary entries and letters, and other primary documents. These essays are perhaps best searched by theme (including European Influence, Gender and Sexuality, Art, Music, and
Popular Culture). Alternatively, visitors can also read short - yet informative - biographical sketches of a number of key writers and explore related articles on individual author pages. Those interested in exploring the digitized items from the British Library on their own can browse or search the 300+ artifacts in Collection Items. High school and college educators will also want to check out the Teaching Resources related to this collection.
