As Wallace Stevens once wrote, "a poem should be part of one's
sense of life". This book provides a record of readerly and
critical explorations of the poems and life of the American poet.
The author reads Stevens's poems in the context of both the
existing critical works and the commentaries provided by the poet
himself (essays, letters, occasional notes and posthumous texts),
and aims to prove that his artistic development was informed by two
contradictory existential projects: teleological, based on
Stevens's assumption of a higher self which in its turn helps to
illuminate the meaning and dynamics of the actual existence, and
critical, appearing at the very moment when one questions his or
her identity and assumes life to be an open and unfinished process.
