520 "Influential Ghosts: A Study of Auden's Sources explores
some of the most important literary and philosophical
influences on W.H. Auden's poetry. The study attempts to
show that Auden's poetry derives much of its interest from
the vast range of authors on whom he drew for inspiration.
But it also suggest that his relationship to these writers
was marked by a fascinating ambivalence. In chapters on
Auden's relationship to Hardy and Kierkegaard, the study
shows how, after lovingly apprenticing himself to their
work and often borrowing stylistic or thematic features
from it DL Hardy's sweeping "hawk's vision," Kierkegaard's
urgent "leap of faith" DL he began to criticize the very
things he had previously striven to emulate. In a chapter
on Auden's elegies, the author argues that, alone among
examples of this poetic genre, they both reverently mourn
and harshly scrutinize their subjects (Yeats, Freud, Henry
James and others). In a chapter on "structural allusion"
in Auden's early poetry, the study posits that Auden
singlehandedly invented a new kind of allusion in which he
alludes to the form and subject matter of entire poems.
But while doing so, he also finds fault with the attitudes
(passivity, despair) depicted in them. In these
structurally allusive poems DL as with his relationship to
Hardy, Kierkegaard and his elegies' subjects DL Auden's
sometimes accepting, sometimes skeptical attitude toward
his poetic models is on powerful display, and finds a
perfect counterpart in the tension between imitative form
and critical content."--Publisher's description.
