Spoon River Anthology (1915), by Edgar Lee Masters, is a collection of short free verse poems that collectively narrates the epitaphs of the residents of Spoon River, a fictional small town named after the Spoon River, which ran near Masters' home town of Lewistown, Illinois. The aim of the poems is to demystify rural and small town American life. The collection includes 212 separate characters, in all providing 244 accounts of their lives, losses, and manner of death. Many of the poems contain cross-references that create an unabashedly candid tapestry of the community. The poems originally were published in 1914 in the St. Louis, Missouri, literary journal Reedy's Mirror, under the pseudonym Webster Ford.

  • L'Antologia di Spoon River (titolo orig. Spoon River Anthology) è una collezione di poesie in versi liberi scritta dal poeta americano Edgar Lee Masters e pubblicata tra il 1914 e il 1915 sul Reedy's Mirror di Saint Louis, Missouri, una rivista letteraria, per la quale l'autore utilizzò lo pseudonimo di Webster Ford. Ogni poesia racconta, in forma di epitaffio, la vita dei residenti dell'immaginario paesino di Spoon River - il cui nome deriva da quello di un omonimo fiume realmente esistente - che scorre vicino a Lewistown, città di residenza di Masters - sepolti nel cimitero locale. Lo scopo di Masters è quello di demistificare la realtà di una piccola cittadina rurale americana, con rimandi incrociati che permettono di allargare lo sguardo sull'intera comunità. La raccolta include 212 di (it)
  • Spoon River Anthology – tom wierszy amerykańskiego poety Edgara Lee Mastersa, będący jego najsławniejszym dziełem, kilkakrotnie tłumaczonym na język polski, między innymi jako Umarli ze Spoon River. Książka stanowi zbiór monologów dramatycznych (w stylu Alfreda Tennysona i Roberta Browninga) wypowiadanych przez osoby nieżyjące. Została opublikowana w 1915. Zawiera 245 tekstów. Zmarli, którzy mogą się już nie obawiać o konsekwencje swoich wypowiedzi, mogą również pozwolić sobie na szczerość. Mówią przeważnie o swoim zmarnowanym życiu, niespełnionych marzeniach i niezrealizowanych planach. Spoon River jest fikcyjnym miastem ulokowanym w stanie Illinois. Zbiór był początkowo kontrowersyjny, ponieważ ukazywał prawdziwy, a dotąd ukrywany obraz małych miasteczek amerykańskich i ich obywateli, kt (pl)
