Book Description

0820438979 978-0820438979 June 22, 2000 1St Edition
In its international and cross-cultural evolution, the modernist movement brought the most notable achievements in the poetry genre. Through their fragmented mode by semantic scrambling, the modernist poems seek to embody an indestructible unity of language and art. In order to elucidate the significance of that "essential" form in capitalistic times, 'A Flowering Word' applies C. S. Peirce's semiotic theory to the principal works of three contemporary writers: Stphane Mallarm's late sonnets, T. S. Eliot's Four Quartets, and the Japanese pre-feminist poet, Yosano Akiko's Tangled Hair.
