    Review of E. E. Cummings' Erotic Poems

    Get PDF
    The latest compilation of Cummings material is entitled Erotic Poems, published in February 2010 by W. W. Norton. Its editor is George James Firmage, who was also responsible for such important books as E. E. Cum-mings: A Bibliography (1960), E. E. Cummings: A Miscellany Revised (1967), and especially the centennial edition of Cummings’ Complete Po-ems (1994), the definitive edition of Cummings’ poetic material. The book under review is the first compilation of Cummings’ erotic poems, and it publishes some of Cummings’ erotic drawings as well. Previously, only Richard Kostelanetz’s AnOther E. E. Cummings (1998) collected together a group of twenty eight erotic poems. In this case, the editor arranged other groups of poems under various headings, so besides “Erotic Poetry,” we also find sections labeled “Language Experiments,” “Texts Set to Music,” and “Self-Prefaces,” among others. Because of this, the nature of Erotic Poems is completely new for those who are interested on the works by the American author

    Squaring the self: versions of transcendentalism in "The enormous room"

    No full text
    E. E. Cummings’ links with the tradition of American transcendentalism have been much commented upon since comparisons between him and Ralph Waldo Emerson were first drawn by writers like James Dougherty in Landmarks of American Writing and Harold McCarthy in The Expatriate Perspective. These critics observed how Cummings, in his avant-garde poetry and painting and in The Enormous Room, his autobiographical account of his incarceration during World War I, advocates an Emersonian reverence for the inviolability of the individual soul, its ideal potential, and its resistance to society’s corrosive influence.Final article publishe
