Great Earthly Poetry: a Study of the Poetry of Wallace Stevens
by Li Haiying
About This Novel
"The Great Earthly Poetry" depicts Wallace Stevens, the most powerful poet in the history of modern American poetry. From textual capture to poetic argumentation, it runs through Li Haiying's keen awareness of issues, vivid ability to be present, and wise insights. Between transcendence and empiricism, on observation and imagination, Stevens explores the "reality" of the "highest fiction", explores new physical properties and new spirituality, and achieves a "great earthly poetry", thus achieving two kinds of success: the successful realization of poetic meaning and the successful interpretation of poetics, and at the same time he obtains two kinds of values: poetic value and poetic value. "The Great Earthly Poetry" explains Stevens from three aspects: observing the poet's position in the context of modern poetry and the hidden and lasting influence it has had both locally and abroad; exploring the poet's posture and intention, and considering the poet's specific characteristics from the perspectives of ironclad thinking, observation methods, theme selection, lyrical dilemmas, and modern narratives. The author explores the essence of modern poetry as a whole, focusing on the long poems "Blue Guitar", "Imaginary Notes" and "Autumn Aurora", taking into account other texts and poetic conceptions, analyzing how the poet creates contemporary poetry that satisfies both reason and imagination, and establishes a poetry theory with the structure of reality as the central reference.
