Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First Edition. L6 - A first edition (numberline starts with "1") hardcover book SIGNED and inscribed by Monroe K. Spears to previous owner on the title page in very good condition in very good dust jacket. Dust jacket has some wrinkling and chipping on the edges…and corners, wrinkling and diagonal crease on the front flap, dust jacket and book have some bumped corners, light discoloration and shelf wear. 9.25"x6.25", 129 pages. Satisfaction Guaranteed. In One Writer's Reality, Monroe K. Spears eloquently considers the kinds of reality writers have to confront. Spears presents not a single rigorous argument but varied approaches to the basic thesis that the writer is not essentially different from the reader, and that the writer's relation to reality is crucially important. Spears adopts a broad treatment of reality, from the largest scale in "Cosmology" to the smallest and most personal scale in "A Happy Induction." "Writing as a Vocation" defines the economic reality of writing as "unimportant to the writer; what must in the end matter to him, as to the reader, are the deeper realities of place and community, human relations and emotions, and aesthetic form, and ultimately the transmutation of daily life into the ideal reality of form in art." Examples of reality as seen by two very different poets, James Dickey and W. H. Auden, and by novelist Reynolds Price are considered. Two essays relate the history of the University of the South and the Sewanee Review to the evolving culture of the South that Allen Tate and others, central to the Sewanee story, created. One speculative and wide-ranging essay on the expression of emotion in music and poetry compares Schubert and Keats. Considering himself as representative of the influences of particular times and places, and of intellectual and academic climates, Spears concludes by addressing the realities of his own career in literature. Intended for the aspiring writer and the general reader, One Writer's Reality is an intimate perusal of the working interests and practices of a formidable American critic. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Signed by Author.

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. Since his brilliant debut on the literary scene, the career of W. H. Auden has been marked by seeming self-contradictions and sharp fluctuations in critical reputation. Today, however, his is recognized as one of the major voices of twentieth century poetry. Originally the leading spo…kesman of a group of iconoclastic, Marxist-oriented English poets, Auden confounded many admirers by returning to Anglicanism and emigrating to the United States. Using an extraordinary variety of poetic forms--from the traditional to the most experimental--he has evolved deeply personal symbolism, bringing the world of public events and the private world of the poet into meaningful conjunction. Among the authors of these essays are: Christopher Isherwood: Auden's close friend from childhood and his literary mentor for many years (as well as his collaborator on three plays), speaks with a unique authority about Auden's early verse. Stephen Spender: After Spender's, the next two essays, both dating from the mid-Fifties, present the judgments of distinguished American women and men of letters on Auden's work. Cleanth Brooks: The second early essay (1939) is that by Cleanh Brooks, who (in a book which, by the way, Auden reviewed favorably in "The Nation") was one of the first to apply the "new criticism" fruitfully to Auden. Concerning that his affinities are with the true central tradition of English poetry as it appears most plainly in the seventeenth-century "Metaphysical" poets. Marianne Moore: Marianne Moore's essay is of interest as the opinion of an American poet of the first rank, whose verse has had a distinct influence on some of Auden's later work, especially that in syllabic meter. She belongs to no critical school or trend, but displays the reactions of her own fine sensibility and keen intelligence as a kind of poetry very different from her own. Edmund Wilson: Well-known critic and man of letters. Included in this book are Chronology of Important Dates, Notes on the Editor and Authors, Selected Bibliography. There is smudging to the page edges. The front and back covers have corner creases and some of the printed pages. The pages are clean and free of any markings or highlighting.

No Dustjacket. 278 pages. hardcover. keywords: Literary Criticism. DESCRIPTION - Using the dark, mythic image of the Greek God, resurrected by Nietzsche at the last cent…ury's close, as the prototype of the modern spirit in literature, Mr. Spears attempts an inclusive definition of modernism as word, idea, and historical movement. He explores in particular the original modernism first manifest in American and British poetry about 1909, and its relation to later currents in literature and in the other arts. His interest is in the widening of perspectives and in cultural synthesis, and his chief concern is with showing the relation of poetry to the mainstream of contemporary culture. inventory #19125 Some Penned Underlining and Notes Inside, Otherwise Very Good in Hardcover.
