This book has two main subjects which are interwoven: the attitudes
of selected poets (including Neruda, Rilke, Breton, Celan, and
Artaud) to the "primitive" and the "archaic," studied from an
anthropologist's viewpoint; and a model of the processes whereby
poetry is produced and received, built on the author's successful
careers as both poet and anthropologist. The book includes detailed
biographical information about how Tarn went from being a French to
an English to an American poet. It also reveals the effect of a
double career and of these moves on a unique body of poetry and
theoretical work. An extremely substantial interview, serving also
as an introduction to, and discussion of, the essays, demonstrates
that there is nothing like this work to be found elsewhere.
