Poetry Atlas

"Everywhere has been written about," writes the team behind the Poetry Atlas, an interactive tool that helps poetry fans find location-specific poems. Poems are arranged by a series of pins across a google map of the world; thus, visitors will find Evelyn Scott's "Autumn Dusk in Central Park" via a pin marking Central Park; Carl Sandberg's "Omaha" is marked in the Nebraska city (the poem is also marked in Council Bluffs, Iowa and the Missouri River, which are also mentioned in the poem); and Alfred Lloyd Tennyson "Beautiful City" appears in Paris. Visitors can also search for poems by poet and title; in addition, the Poetry Atlas also groups poems by categories (e.g. Poems About Battlefields; Poems About Rivers; Poems about Beaches). At this time the Poetry Atlas focuses on certain regions more than others. As a crowd sourced effort, visitors are invited to submit additional poems to [email protected].
