"Bahti's study of lyric 'ends' (directions, motivations, resolutions) contains exceedingly intricate readings of poems by Shakespeare, Leopardi, Coleridge, Keats, Hölderlin, Baudelaire, Stevens, and Celan... [there is a] extreme sophistication and clarity [to] each reading." -- Choice
"Any inquiry into [history as allegory] will have to begin with Bahti's work." -- MLN
"Valuable and illuminating." -- American Historical Review
