Authors of the 20th Century
Directly after the denouement of the Second World War the public started to deem that the world’s essential ethical foundations are simple and consistent . Both general politics and social relations were relying on the thoughts of gain , good change , belief in science , awareness , technical innovations , and the ability to substantiate any phenomenon from a analytical standpoint . However , beginning from the second half of the 60’s, the world began to degrade and currently , 40 years after , we live in a different type of reality .
We easily mark those changes which are brought to us by new technology, but we almost never comprehend the fact that there are some thoughts standing behind those inventions .

Among the multiple authors whose poems have served for pleasure , there have been several of them who have given people a new picture of the future . They have more effectively than others other people molded and worded new thoughts and have ultimately molded a brand new intellectual and emotional grounding of the future. They have seen challenges in the mundane of our lives and have opened a set of problems, which were going on without being noted . They have aided us to realize the new issues , and gave us new aspirations .
