This study examines Hart Crane's canonical ambitions in "The
Bridge" and argues for a new species of epic, "the modernist epic,"
which also includes Pound's "The Cantos," Eliot's "The Waste Land,"
and Williams's "Paterson." It offers a close reading of "The
Bridge" as a hybrid of lyric and epic modes. Crane's sublime and
history converge in a complex synthesis of form and ideas. The
study reconceives Crane's achievement by locating him in an
intertextual system of production while also recognizing his poetic
making of self. Yet in this work Crane assumes a greater political
presence than much commentary has entertained.
