James Merrill and W.H. Auden offers a substantial analysis of the
literary and personal relationship between two major
twentieth-century poets. As Gwiazda argues, Auden's prominence in
the post-World War II American poetry scene as a homosexual poet
and critic makes his impact on Merrill particularly noteworthy.
Merrill's imaginary recreation of Auden in his occult verse trilogy
The Changing Light at Sandover (1982) offers a powerful statement
about the dynamics of poetic influence between gay male poets.
Combining archival research, textual analysis, and aspects of queer
theory, James Merrill and W.H. Auden examines Sandover's
implications to the contentious issues of homosexual identity and
self-representation.
