Patricia Sloane

T.S. Eliot's Bleistein Poems

Uses of Literary Allusion in 'Burbank with a Baedeker, Bleistein with a Cigar' and 'Dirge'

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Patricia Sloane's study is a detailed reassessment of two of the poet's most provocative works that examines Eliot's allusions and larger purpose. In this close reading of the two poems in which Bleistein appears, Sloane shows that Burbank is an intricate derivation of Dante's Inferno.

Rezensionen

This book is by far the most amazing piece of scholarship it has ever been my pleasure to come across... Her book on T.S. Eliot is probably the best out there. I am certainly looking forward to the volumes to follow. -- Steven C. Scheer This book is by far the most amazing piece of scholarship it has ever been my pleasure to come across... Her book on T.S.
