The Whole Matter
Author: Thomas H. Jackson
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 192
Book Description
Kinsella's later work is considered by many to have brought the techniques of international Modernism to Irish verse. Jackson is a perfect guide to the later poems, an art that engages, analyzes, and morally restructures the content of the poet's world. What emerges in The Whole Matter is a picture of a far-reaching poetic development immersed in the culture around it and with the entire human situation.
