The present collection comprises various key approaches: onomastic, typological, genetic, and aesthetic. The common theme tying them together is the speaker's split self, his dissociated sensibility. Special attention is paid to possible biographical connections and the poem's light-hearted humor. The richness of the sources (among them Shakespeare, Dickens, Pater, Conrad, and Conan Doyle) is stressed.","brand":"Peter Lang Publishing Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48884698022231,"sku":"9780820408293","price":31.82,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/ascending-the-prufrockian-stair-9780820408293","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
