- This is a 90,000 word study of one of the most significant poets of the twentieth century. The monograph draws on extensive material including traditional biographical/psychoanalytical studies, and challenges these by addressing the neglected topic of Bishop’s style. The research engages with a wide variety of primary sources including close analysis of Bishop’s prose-like verse, literary prose, prose poems, and letter prose. The book explores for the first time Bishop’s work in multiple genres as a stylistic whole, identifying intertextual relationships with major writers of the period and making a new contribution to the study of Anglo-American poetic form.
