Taking on one of the most crucial issues in American poetry of the last fifty years, celebrated poet Dan Chiasson explores what is lost or gained when real-life experiences are made part of the subject matter and source material for poetry. In five extended, scholarly essays-on Robert Lowell, Elizabeth Bishop, Frank Bidart, Frank O'Hara, and Louise Glück-Chiasson looks specifically to bridge the chasm between formal and experimental poetry in the United States. Regardless of form, Chiasson argues that recent American poetry is most thoughtful when it engages most forcefully with autobiographical material, either in an effort to embrace it or denounce it. 606 $aAmerican poetry$y20th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aAutobiography in literature 606 $aSelf in literature 615 0$aAmerican poetry$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aAutobiography in literature. 615 0$aSelf in literature. 676 $a811/.509353 700 $aChiasson$b Dan$01805487 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910971394503321 996 $aOne kind of everything$94354095 997 $aUNINA
