Brian Bremen's innovative re-examination of William Carlos
Williams's life and work traces the development of Williams's
poetics, focusing in particular on his ongoing fascination with the
effects of poetry and prose. In an analysis informed by the insight
of contemporary cultural critics, Bremen traces Williams's thought
from the confused romanticism of Spring and All to the
methodological empiricism of Paterson, examining in the process
Williams's correspondence with life-long friend Kenneth Burke and
their shared theoretical interests. Through this fresh conceptual
frame-work, Bremen shows how Williams's role as poet becomes more
congruous with his role as doctor. In addition, Bremen looks
closely at Williams's economic and social theories in light of
those of Ezra Pound and T.S. Eliot, making a case for the
consistency of Williams's thought on medicine, gender, economics,
poetry and prose, and history. William Carlos Williams and the
Diagnostics of Culture is essential reading for scholars not only
of Williams, but also of Modernism, twentieth-century literature,
and cultural criticism and history.
