Abstract "This volume is the first to reconsider Roethke's work in terms of the expanded critical approaches to literature that have emerged since his death in 1963. The forty-four contributors include highly respected literary scholars, critics, and writers, such as Peter Balakian, Camille Paglia, Jay Parini, and David Wojahn, who collectively make a case for Roethke's poetry as a complete, unified, and evolving body of work. The accessible essays employ a number of approaches, including formalism, ecocriticism, reader-response, and feminist critique to explicate the poetics, themes, and the biographical, historical, cultural, and literary contexts of Roethke's work"-- Provided by publisher.
