Epic Negation

The Dialectical Poetics of Late Modernism

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Epic Negation examines the dialectical turn of modernist poetry over the interwar period, arguing that late modernism inverts the method of Ezra Pound's poem including history to conceive a negated mode of epic, predicated on the encryption of disarticulated historical content.
