This book explicates the philosophical unity that underlies Conrad Aiken s long poems written between 1915 and 1963 It explains Aiken s philosophy of consciousness the various types and phases of consciousness as it evolves in each individual as well as the special challenges and solutions faced at each stage This study shows how Aiken integrates such diverse philosophical infl uences as Heraclitus Hume Kant Hegel and Schopenhauer into a coherent whole He does so not by abstract explanations but by illustrating the implications of his philosophy for outwardly ordinary lives the eros maddened lover the pathological liar the disloyal husband the man refl ecting on the nature and role of evil Aiken achieves this synthesis in a series of long poems that range in mood from the mockingly morbid and perverse to fl ights of lyrical rapture and the most profound meditation The style of his poems tends to be more traditional than that of his friend T S Eliot The lyrical beauty of his work provides a rich and satisfying reading experience
