Senses of style : poetry before interpretation
Jeffrey Andrew Dolven (Author)
"In a sparkling series of remarks and observations, Dolven explores qualities of style both in general and through the parallel stories of two men: Sir Thomas Wyatt, a poet and diplomat in the court of Henry VIII; and his admirer Frank O'Hara, a poet and curator in the New York of Eisenhower, Kennedy, and Johnson. Using Wyatt and O'Hara as foils, Dolven opens the larger question of what we talk about when we talk about style, in the 1530s, the 1950s, and today."--Provided by publisher
