Abstract:
Every effort has been made to trace the owners of copyrighted material and secure
copyright permission. Articles appearing in this volume generally appear much as they did
in their original publication with little to no editorial changes. Those interested in
locating the original source will find bibliographic information on the first page of each
article as well as in the bibliography and acknowledgments sections of this volume
Description:
Hemingway is scarcely unique in not acknowledging the paternity of
Walt Whitman; T.S. Eliot and Wallace Stevens are far closer to Whitman
than William Carlos Williams and Hart Crane were, but literary influence is
a paradoxical and antithetical process
