Description
In Reading Duncan Reading, thirteen scholars and poets examine, first, what and how the American poet Robert Duncan read and, perforce, what and how he wrote. Part one emphasizes Duncan's acts of reading, tracing a variety of his derivations. In part two, the volume turns to examinations of poets who can be seen to in some way derive from Duncan - and so in turn reveals another angle of Duncan's derivative poetics.
