About the Book

An overview of seventy years of Stevens criticism reveals a field marked by conflict and contradiction, both within and among critical works in their attempts to explicate and appropriate this major American poet. Stevens changing reception among the critical schools reveals much about the shifting nature of American literature and criticism in this century and illuminates the often polemical process of literary canon formation. Each chapter of this book examines a particular aspect of the 2th-century critical involvement with Wallace Stevens poetry, introduced by a discussion of the poets work as an arena for the convergence of modern critical tendencies and concerns.First, the author examines the avant-garde milieu of early 2th-century modernism, which implicated Stevens in its melee of affiliations and enmities and which influenced critics ambivalent responses to his early work. She traces the critical controversies of the poets emergence before and during the 192s, specifically the clash between New Humanism and aestheticism, and demonstrates how the quality of irony in Stevens work became a part of the critics general repertoire in their assessment of this poet.The 193s, 194s, and 195s were decades during which Stevens criticism became dominated by the New Critical ideology. The turn toward deconstruction in Stevens criticism stands in part as a response to the New Critical dilemma, seen in the manner in which such critics as J. Hillis Miller and Joseph Riddel appropriated the concept of decreation to explain the sense of rupture in Stevens late poetry yet brought that concept to its logical end in a deconstructive paradigm.Finally, Schaum identifies four major theoretical approaches to Stevens in the past two decades that continue to inform and direct the field of critical dissent and exploration in the 198s. Such theories as Bloomian misprision, versions of hermeneutic criticism, redefinitions of the deconstructive enterprise, and the contemporary call for a new historicism continue the battle to appropriate Stevens as the hard prize of critical aims and investigations.
