商品簡介
Fleming argues that Irish poet W. B. Yeats (1865-1939) and American poet Robinson Jeffers (1887-1962) shared a vision of modernity that rejected contemporary values in favor of tradition and created poetry that sought to change those values. Both poets concerned themselves with permanence in times of fragmentation, she says, and established poetic traditions based on dramatic landscapes and cultural myth. She covers ecoprophecy, landscape and the self, prophecy and eternal recurrence, solitary hero versus social man in Jeffers' Dear Judas and Yeats' Calvary, rationalism and the great memory of the world, and radical traditionalism.
