    http://www.cartage.org.lb/en/themes/Biographies/MainBiographies/S/stevenswallace
    
    Extractions: Scottish novelist, essayist, and poet, who contributed several classic works to children's literature. Born in Edinburgh, Stevenson studied engineering and then law at the University of Edinburgh. Since childhood, however, Stevenson's natural inclination had been toward literature, and he eventually started writing seriously. Stevenson's popularity is based primarily on the exciting subject matter of his adventure novels and fantasy stories. Treasure Island (1883) is a swiftly paced story of a search for buried gold involving the boy hero Jim Hawkins and the evil pirates Pew and Long John Silver. In the horror story The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1886), the extremes of good and evil appear startlingly in one character when the physician Henry Jekyll discovers a drug that changes him, first at will and later involuntarily, into the monster Hyde. Kidnapped (1886) recounts the adventures of young David Balfour and the proud outlaw Alan Breck. Stevenson's other adventure stories include The Black Arrow (1888) and The Master of Ballantrae (1889).

63. Recursive Structures In The Poetry Of Wallace Stevens And Louis Zukofsky
    Abstract of an article by Jonathan Ivry, Stanford University, presented at the Society for Science Category Arts Literature Poetry Poets S stevens, wallaceRecursive Structures in the Poetry of wallace stevens and Louis Zukofsky.Jonathan Ivry, Stanford University. In Gödel, Escher, Bach  
    http://web.sls.ufl.edu/abstracts/ivry.html
    
    Extractions: In My paper explores how recursive structures can help elucidate certain practices in the poetry of Wallace Stevens and Louis Zukofsky. In late Stevens, subjectivity is no longer a unified, metaphysical "self," but rather is re-conceptualized as caught inside paradoxical "strange loops." "Self" is now the by-product of a mechanistic structure in which an imagining mind imagines itself imagining itself ad infinitum. Stevens's "supreme fiction" becomes his term for an unreachable, idealized "meta"-poetics, in which the "recursive self" might be replaced by an articulation of self-presence: "I have not but I am and as I am, I am." Louis Zukofsky expresses his ideal state of poetry in terms adopted from calculus; poetics is a definite integral with lower limit speech and upper limit music. Zukofsky recognizes that not only is subjectivity caught up in mechanistic recursive loops, but that language is similarly trapped in circles of referentiality. The ideal poetics can transcend these "strange loops" only by aspiring to a condition of music, in which self and language are no longer referential and expressive but rather performative and self-identical.

64. The Metaphysics Of Sound In Wallace Stevens

    Extractions: Anca Rosu Wallace Stevens dedicated his poetry to challenging traditional notions about reality, truth, knowledge, and the role of language as a means of representation. Rosu demonstrates that Stevens's experimentation with sound is not only essential to his poetics but also profoundly linked to the pragmatist ideas that informed his way of thinking about language. Her readings of Stevens's poems focus on revealing the dynamic through which meaning emerges in language patternsa dynamic she calls images of sound. Rosu argues that the formal aspects of poetry are deeply ingrained in cultural realities and are, in fact, generated by their context. The sound pattern pervading Stevens's poems at once addresses and violates the reader's assumptions about the functioning of language and, along with them, ideas about reality, knowledge, and subjectivity. Sound is thus the starting point of an argument concerned with Stevens's epistemology and poeticsthe way his poems insist on a movement past or through a normal poetic representation of the world to gesture toward a reality that lies outside or beyond systems of representation. The relationship between sound and meaning isolated and analyzed in The Metaphysics of Sound in Wallace Stevens is firmly situated among critical debates concerning the poet's aesthetic and philosophical convictions. Rosu claims that Stevens's poetry is not ultimately about the powerlessness of language, nor is it a deconstructive enterprise of destabilizing culturally consecrated truths; rather it achieves meaning most frequently through patterns of sound. Sound helps Stevens make a deeply philosophical point in a language unavailable to philosophers.

    Extractions: Great quotes to inspire, empower and motivate you to live the life of your dreams and become the person you've always wanted to be! T o regard the imagination as metaphysics is to think of it as part of life, and to think of it as part of life is to realize the extent of artifice. We live in the mind. H ow has the human spirit ever survived the terrific literature with which it has had to contend? A ll the great things have been denied and we live in an intricacy of new and local mythologies, political, economic, poetic, which are asserted with an ever-enlarging incoherence. W hat our eyes behold may well be the text of life but one's meditations on the text and the disclosures of these meditations are no less a part of the structure of reality. T hought is an infection. In the case of certain thoughts, it becomes an epidemic. T o be young is all there is in the world. They talk so beautifully about work and having a family and a home (and I do, too, sometimes) but it's all worry and head-aches and respectable poverty and forced gushing. Telling people how nice it is, when, in reality, you would give all of your last thirty years for one of your first thirty. Old people are tremendous frauds. List By Author : A B C D ...

    Extractions: The hero of Wallace Stevens's poetry is the human imagination. Like Emily Dickinson's, Stevens's sedate and uneventful outer life concealed a lush and adventurous inner one. Such adventures were for Stevens not an escape from reality but a journey toward a new reality. Although Stevens was no philosopherhe was a bold and brilliant poethe explored the workings of the human mind with a precision philosophers might envy. Academy of American Poets Listen to Stevens read "The Idea of Order at Key West." In addition, this site contains a biography, a bibliography, and some of Stevens's most well-known poems.

    Extractions: Michael Bryson It may very well be impossible, as J. Hillis Miller asserts in his Poets of Reality , "to find a single systematic theory of poetry and life in Stevens" (259). Some of the prevailing critical views of Stevens' work characterize him as an "atheist" (Pearce 415) whose work affirms "the firm dignity of the merely natural man" (Bloom 76). David Jarraway, in his Wallace Stevens and the Question of Belief , writes about a Stevens figured as a proto-deconstructionist, insisting on "Steven's insistence on dismantling the logocentric models of belief" (311) in "An Ordinary Evening in New Haven." In opposition to these readings comes a work like Janet McCann's Wallace Stevens Revisited: "The Celestial Possible"
