These studies are admirable for the clarity and attention to detail that they bring to often difficult texts. As a result, one begins to understand in new ways the ancient paradox that without poetry philosophy would be unable to recognize itself, and in the bargain philosophy becomes for poetry an indispensable \u003ci\u003epoetics\u003c\/i\u003e of words and things of the world. -- Gerald L. Bruns, author of \u003ci\u003eInterruptions: The Fragmentary Aesthetic in Modern Literature\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis very exciting collection offers admirably concise and often brilliant essays on twentieth- and twenty-first-century philosophers and their relationship to, reliance on, commentaries about poetry. Any student of European thinking, especially of those central strains of the 'continental tradition' that take their origin in phenomenology, will learn a great deal not only from the specific essays in this collection but also from the interplay between them. -- John Michael, author of \u003ci\u003eSecular Lyric: The Modernization of the Poem in Poe, Whitman, and Dickinson\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRecommended. * Choice *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.
