Limits of American Literary Ideology in Pound and Emerson

In The Limits of American Literary Ideology in Pound and Emerson, Cary Wolfe analyses the dynamics and consequences of radical individualism and the sort of cultural critique it generates in Ralph Waldo Emerson and Ezra Pound. The main purpose of the book is to demonstrate that any form of individualism that is modelled on the logic and structure of private property will always reproduce the very contradictions and alienations that it set out to criticise and to remedy.Wolfe, Cary is the author of 'Limits of American Literary Ideology in Pound and Emerson' with ISBN 9780521445559 and ISBN 0521445558.
