Poetry has been around longer than you or I, and guess what? It's been around longer than writing has. Poetry predates literacy. The earliest poetry was supposedly orally recited or sung. Poetry was an important aspect of ancient culture due to its use of passing on myths and tales, remembering oral history, and even law.
Early Poetry
Poetry is from the Greek word poesis, meaning "making" or "creating". Poets originally used words that sounded pleasing to the ears because it was solely a verbal art at the time, not yet a written. Poetry was passed down through gene rations before writing and reading became daily and crucial pieces of society.
Troubadours and actors were some of the many who passed these poems on. As poetry aged, and writing and reading became more used skills, poetry evolved. It gained a variety of thousands of different structures.
Though poetry gained a focus on pleasing the eyes with written word play, spoken word and slam poetry are still very alive and kicking.
Middle Ages
Aestheticians later identified three main genres: epic poetry, lyric poetry and dramatic poetry. Comedy and tragedy were considered sub-genres of dramatic poetry.
Much poetry of this era was religious and centered around courtly love, though secular poetry was still widely popular. Beowulf is an example of a popular secular English epic, one that still retains popularity today.
A lot of minstrels and bards adopted secular poems and spread them through out Europe in their manner of singing and performance. Through this, most secular poems came to be heard only accompanied with instruments and singing as ballads and lays.
20st Century
Poetry remained in the Victorian era until two influential poets emerged in the early 20th century. Thomas Hardy and Yeats.
Thomas Hardy was a more traditional writer, and Yeats followed the emerging styles, adapting to them. He stayed
caught up with the constantly morphing art we love so much.
Through out the 20th century, new forms and styles of poetry were constantly rising and fading. The 30's consisted of poems revolving around violence and political scandal. This was because the writers (and a huge portion of the population) were born pre-WW1, and were raised in a social and economic chaos. War and injustice dominated poetry during these years.
A new romantic post-war group emerged in the 40's. Regionalism also was born. This is when a poet writes about their native areas.
The diverse 50's had 3 main groups emerge, The Group, The Movement, and Extremist Art. The Group were poets who worked collectively and had weekly meetings. The Movement consisted of writers who were anti-modernism and anti-internationalism. They had no romantic features in their writing. A representative of Extremist Art, Sylvia Path and her controversial work, were strong influences.
The 60's and 70's poetry style emerged through Allen Ginsberg and Gregory Corso. They would use drugs like acid in order to open themselves to new ideas when they write. This was made apparent through "The Yage Letters".
20th century poetry was constantly evolving as people and their desires and influences changed through each generation.
