Description
This polished study of the uses of reason in poetry is a philosophical meditation. Its basic thesis is that poetry is the objective correlative of reason, and in this sense it attacks both romantic subjectivism and the more general tendency to consider poetic effects in terms of reason-emotion dichotomy.
Originally published in 1966.
