The Porpoise and the Otter de William Blissett

The Porpoise and the Otter

Autor William Blissett
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 19 sep 2022
In William Blissett's masterful study The Porpoise and the Otter, we encounter dapper, choosy Max Beerbohm (1872-1956) and the massive untidy G. K. Chesterton (1874-1936), together again in the great age of verbal parody, penetrating caricature, and the writer as personality. In considering their life and works, Professor Blissett discloses a host of new details bearing on how the two essayist-cartoonists viewed their Edwardian world with its roots in Victorian grandeur and facing a troubled new century.

Notă biografică

William Blissett is a scholarly essayist with a wide-ranging interest in literature and the arts. His The Long Conversation (Oxford), an account of his friendship with the great Catholic artist-poet David Jones, established him as an authority on the personalities and communities in which literary modernism was defined.Blissett's ability to bring literary affiliations and creative milieus to life is seen in his writings on Morris, Pater, the Wagnerian high modernists, and the mid-20th-century poets who acknowledge Edmund Spenser as a literary ancestor. Now 100 years old, he is working on two studies: T.S. Eliot and the Vortex of Modernism and David Jones and the Great Misadventure: In Parenthesis among the War Books.William Blissett FRSC is emeritus professor of English Literature at the University of Toronto.
