Synopsis American Modernism. Wallace Stevens’ Modernist Composition of “The Man With The Blue Guitar” by : Ljuba Kabzan
Seminar paper from the year 2005 in the subject American Studies - Literature, grade: 2,0, University of Bayreuth, course: American Modernism, language: English, abstract: Wallace Stevens’ "The Man With The Blue Guitar" is one of his most famous long poems. For a better understanding of the poem, it is necessary to examine the art forms of Modernism that influenced him while composing this poem and to have a look at his poetic development. Only then, it becomes clear that this poem is typically modern and that at the same time Stevens’ own way of poetic composition cannot be compared to any other poet of Modernism. This is the aim of this essay. Wallace Stevens already published his first poetic work during his College years at Harvard University (1897-1900). However, it took him many years until he could contribute himself fully to poetry. The first major collections of poetry, Harmonium, came out in 1923 when Stevens was 44 years old. Only in times of financial security, Stevens had a leading position in an insurance company did he reach his highest poetic creativity.

Synopsis Narrative and Representation in the Poetry of Wallace Stevens by : D. Schwarz
In this study Daniel R. Schwarz argues that the narrative and representational aspects of Stevens's poetry have been neglected in favour of readings that stress his word play and rhetoricity. Schwarz shows how Stevens's concept of representation is deeply influenced by modern painters such as Picasso and Duchamp. He shows that Stevens's poetry needs to be understood in terms of a number of major contexts: the American tradition of Emerson and Whitman, the Romantic movement, and the Modernist tradition.

Synopsis The Modern Dilemma by : Leon Surette
Leon Surette's new study of T.S. Eliot and Wallace Stevens challenges the received view that Stevens' poetry expresses a Humanist world view, and - more surprisingly - documents Eliot's early Humanist phase.

Synopsis Wallace Stevens, New York, and Modernism by : Lisa Goldfarb
This collection of critical essays considers the impact of New York City on the life and works of Wallace Stevens. Recent criticism of the poet has sought to understand how Stevens interacted with the literary, artistic, and cultural forces of his time to forge his inimitable aesthetic, with its peculiar mix of post-romantic responses to nature and a metropolitan cosmopolitanism. This book examines New York's influence at both the biographical and poetic levels, deepening our understanding of the poet.

Synopsis The Modernist Papers by : Fredric Jameson
Cultural critic Fredric Jameson, renowned for his incisive studies of the passage of modernism to postmodernism, returns to the movement that dramatically broke with all tradition in search of progress for the first time since his acclaimed A Singular Modernity . The Modernist Papers is a tour de froce of anlysis and criticism, in which Jameson brings his dynamic and acute thought to bear on the modernist literature of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Jameson discusses modernist poetics, including intensive discussions of the work of Baudelaire, Rimbaud, Mallarmé, Wallace Stevens, Joyce, Proust, and Thomas Mann. He explores the peculiarties of the American literary field, taking in William Carlos Williams and the American epic, and examines the language theories of Gertrude Stein. Refusing to see modernism as simply a Western phenomenon he also pays close attention to its Japanese expression; while the complexities of a late modernist representation of twentieth-century politics are articulated in a concluding section on Peter Weiss’s novel The Aesthetics of Resistance. Challenging our previous understanding of the literature of this pperiod, this monumental work will come to be regarded as the classic study of modernism.

Synopsis Wallace Stevens and the Aesthetics of Abstraction by : Edward Ragg
Edward Ragg's study was the first to examine the role of abstraction throughout the work of Wallace Stevens. By tracing the poet's interest in abstraction from Harmonium through to his later works, Ragg argues that Stevens only fully appreciated and refined this interest within his later career. Ragg's detailed close-readings highlight the poet's absorption of late nineteenth century and early twentieth century painting, as well as the examples of philosophers and other poets' work. Wallace Stevens and the Aesthetics of Abstraction will appeal to those studying Stevens as well as anyone interested in the relations between poetry and painting. This valuable study embraces revealing philosophical and artistic perspectives, analyzing Stevens' place within and resistance to Modernist debates concerning literature, painting, representation and 'the imagination'.

Synopsis Angels of Modernism by : S. Hobson
The angel can be viewed as a signal reference to modernist attempts to accommodate religious languages to self-consciously modern cultures. This book uses the angel to explore the relations between modernist literature and early twentieth-century debates over the secular and/or religious character of the modern age.
