Early Stevens The Nietzschean Intertext

"It is a delight to watch Leggett's lucid, sophisticated intelligence at work, whether he is discussing Stevens or Nietzsche or negotiating the body of commentary on the two writers. Specialists in Stevens and literary theorists will welcome his book because it generates fresh readings of some major poems, shows how one might go about reading literature intertextually, and reflects helpfully on the relations between intertextual and other kinds of readings."-Milton J. Bates, Marquette UniversityLeggett, B. J. is the author of 'Early Stevens The Nietzschean Intertext' with ISBN 9780822312017 and ISBN 0822312018.
