When speaking about modernist poetry we are refering to a type of poetry mainly written in Europe and North America in a period of time that goes approximately from 1890 to 1950. For the modernist poetry it is essential to focus on an intellectual statement rather than on a personal one. In modernism, impersonality and objectivity were key features.
