520			_aPoetry cannot be taught or learned: it has to be experienced. With a view to make teaching/ learning poetry as a creative collaboration between the reader and the poem, ten English poems representing both the first world and the third world writers were chosen. English literature no longer belongs only to the British Isles. It has become the 'common wealth' of all humanity. Hence this selection has been made comprehensive and exercises have been framed in such a way that the learner can discover the hidden poetry in the words themselves, and for this purpose they have to proceed from comprehension through interpretation to appreciation.
