Posted by arlekeno on August 31, 2012
Ok, my answers are:
War poetry – Collections. scisshl
Australian poetry – Collections. scisshl
New Zealand poetry – Collections. scisshl
Pacifism. scisshl and Iraq War, 2003-2010. scisshl
A collection of antiwar poems by Australian and New Zealand poets in 2004 against the war in Iraq.
Start with the Abouts.
War Poetry, Gulf War, ANZAC?? Protest??
War poetry
- Broader Term
- Poetry – Collections
- Related Term
- War songs
I think we can use this instead of the Broader Poetry Collections. Will check Poetry Collections for Scope notes.
Poetry – Collections
- Scope Note
- Use for collections of poems by more than one author.
- Specific Example Note
- For poetry on a theme or subject the subdivision Poetry may be used with subjects, e.g. Cats – Poetry (unless a ready-made heading such as Sea poetry already exists).
OK, it is specifically about war, AND the heading already exists. Confirmed! Not only that, I can use War-Poetry Collections, and that also already exists in opac records.
Iraq War, 2003-2010
- Indexing Note
- May be subdivided like World War, 1939-1945
Yep, I think we can confirm this one as well.
Pacifism
- Used For
- Peace movements
And this is also used in some4 Anti War records.
Ok, will now go for something Australian and NZ related.
Poetry
- Scope Note
- Use for works on the art, technique, appreciation and philosophy of poetry.
- Specific Example Note
- For poetry on a theme or subject the subdivision Poetry may be used with subjects, e.g. Animals – Poetry (unless a ready-made heading such as Sea poetry already exists). See also poetry of national* and ethnic* groups, e.g. English poetry; Aboriginal poetry; Maori poetry; New Zealand poetry.
So, New Zealand Poetry and Australian Poetry.
