商品描述

How does modern poetry from Donne to Ashbery provide occasions for rethinking the scope and limits of the literary canon? This question is not simply concerned with literature in English but addresses the problem of how texts transform the reader's experience of literature in the wake of modernity. This study shows how an experience of absence is the starting point for a reversal that occurs whenever reading transforms an engagement with the world. The eight chapters that comprise this study offer revisionary readings of key poetic works and a new way of understanding the modern canon.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

現代詩從唐恩(Donne)到阿什貝里(Ashbery)如何提供重新思考文學經典範疇和界限的契機?這個問題不僅僅關乎英語文學,而是探討文本如何在現代性之後改變讀者對文學的體驗。本研究顯示,缺席的體驗是每當閱讀轉變為與世界的互動時所發生的逆轉的起點。本研究的八個章節提供了對關鍵詩作的修訂性解讀,以及理解現代經典的新方式。
