'''Modernist poetry''' refers to poetry written between 1890 and 1930 in the tradition of [[modernist literature]]; the dates of the term depend upon a number of factors, including the nation of origin, the particular school in question, and the biases of the critic setting the dates. It is usually said to have begun with the [[Symbolism (arts)|French Symbolist]] movement.
Through much of the post-[[renaissance]], poetry in the major European languages had focused on development of large scale prosodic structure, reference and ornament, in a tradition that was seen as stretching back to the works of [[Dante Alighieri]] and [[Petrarch]]. By the [[19th century in literature|19th century]] a large range of established forms and norms had been established in French, English, German, Italian, Spanish and Russian, and these norms were the standard against which new works were judged.
