Victoria Bazin

Marianne Moore and the Cultures of Modernity (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Victoria Bazin's interpretations of Marianne Moore's poetry draw extensively on archival resources to trace her influences and to describe her own distinctive modernist aesthetic. Bazin argues that it was Moore's feminist adaptation of pragmatism that shaped her poetry, producing a complex response to the new expanding consumer culture, one that explores not only the aesthetic pleasures but also the ethical consequences of "too much."
