Book Description
As Bruce Bawer wrote in Bookforum, "the late Guy Davenport (1927-2005) left behind an oeuvre that is one long lesson in the history of civilization, and to read any part of it -- story, essay, or translation -- is to be enthralled by his unflagging intellectual energy and engagement." Here, in this generous collection of criticism, are pieces on Whitman, Zukofsky, Joyce, Tolkien, Ives, Wittgenstein, Greek art, Spinoza's tulips -- on everything Davenport's restless, learned mind reached out to possess.
