Charles Altieri frames poetic practice as complex acts of thinking and feeling, offering an overview of key authors and debates about realism, impersonality, rhetoric, and poetics. The book structures its argument through focused chapters on Pound and Williams, Eliot/Loy/Moore, renewal efforts by Williams/Oppen/Hughes, and the return to rhetoric with Stevens and Auden, supported
