Presiding: Bart P. Eeckhout, Univ. of Antwerp
Speakers: Charles Francis Altieri, Univ. of California, Berkeley; Bonnie Costello, Boston Univ.; Rachel Galvin, Princeton Univ.; Lisa N. Goldfarb, New York Univ.; Aidan Wasley, Univ. of Georgia
Session Description:
In a TLS review of Aidan Wasley's The Age of Auden, W. H. Auden is pitted against Wallace Stevens: the latter's influence on postwar American poetry is downplayed in favor of the underestimated role played by the former. This roundtable considers the relations between the two: their aesthetics and critical essays, their poetic practice, and their respective influence on postwar American poetry.
