Journal Article
Stevens and Germany, Stevens in West and East Germany
2024
Overview
This second of two special issues on Wallace Stevens and Germany expands the focus of the first issue to include the East German publication of a collection of his translated poems and features contributions on important translations in reunified Germany, Steven’s relevance to critical theory (specifically Adorno’s thinking), and his relation to wisdom literature and mysticism (here the reference is Rilke). Taken together, these paired special issues open up new fields of research on a poet who grew up speaking German; cultivated an interest in German poetry, art, and philosophy; researched his own German heritage (on his mother’s side) and the history of German-speaking communities near his birthplace; and used German words in his poetry and correspondence.
