Description:Over sixty years after his death, Wallace Stevens remains one of the central figures of American modernist poetry, celebrated for his masterful style, formal rigor, and aesthetic explorations of both the natural and metaphysical world. In Making the Poem: Stevens' Approaches, George S. Lensing charts the evolution of the poet's body of work from a holistic perspective, examining many of the elements that Stevens drew upon in the making of his poetry. Lensing's analysis extends from the sources and contents of well-known poems, including dynamic new readings of canonical texts like "Sea Surface Full of Clouds" and "The Idea of Order at Key West," through the historical backgrounds and musical elements central to Stevens' technique, before concluding with a discussion of the gradual reception his work sometimes received overseas. By considering the form and meaning of individual poems, as well as the composition and reception of a poet's body of work, Making the Poem provides a fluid view of the evolution of Wallace Stevens's poetry, analyzing key elements in its development, composition, and reception. Drawing on his decades of research and writing on Stevens, Lensing offers many new insights to help scholars and teachers navigate the poet's occasionally elusive texts.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
