The Black Riders
`The Black Riders` by Stephen Crane is a collection of free verse poems exploring themes of war, religion, and human nature. Published in 1895, the poems utilize stark imagery and a modernist approach to depict psychological landscapes and the chaos of existence. Crane`s work delves into disillusionment, morality, and the search for meaning, reflecting a post-Civil War America grappling with changing social and philosophical contexts. The collection`s innovative style and thematic concerns influenced subsequent generations of poets. #Poetry #War #Existentialism #Modernism #Crane #AmericanLiterature #Dark
