Abstract:
Twenty-First Century Marianne Moore exemplifies a new development in Moore studies. The essays in this book re-evaluate Moore’s work in light of newly accessible biographical and archival material. As a result, they highlight not just Moore’s particularity and love of detail but her ambivalences, her political commitments, and her emotional depth. The book also provides a brief history of Moore criticism.
