Wallace Stevens: Poetry, Philosophy, and Figurative Language

This volume is devoted to investigating the relationships and
correspondences that hold between the poetry of Wallace Stevens
and philosophy. Stevens used the aesthetically enhanced
language of his poems to create inquiries into the nature of
reality that parallel those conducted by philosophers. He also
maintained poetry’s independence from philosophy. The first
part of the volume contains articles that pursue various
aspects of these parallels. Here, the authors explore the
relations between Stevens’ poems and specific philosophical
concepts or the thought of individual philosophers. The
articles contained in the second part narrow down the scope to
the issues within the philosophy of language. This section
concentrates on the role of metaphor and figurativeness in
Stevens’ poetry.
