World poetry - topics

World poetry is used on Penny's Poetry Pages as a generic term to designate poetry written in other than the English language. Poetry appears in every written language, and through the years the poetry of many has influenced English-language poetry, through both imitation and translation. So while our goal is only to complrehensively cover English-language poetry, we believe that cannot be done without some account of those other countries and languages.
