By tracing the poet's interest in abstraction from Harmonium through to his later works, Edward Ragg presents a new, revisionist study of the work of Wallace Stevens. This book embraces philosophical and artistic perspectives, analyzing Stevens's place within and resistance to Modernist debates concerning literature, painting, representation and 'the imagination'.
