Whitman, Melville, Crane, and the Labors of American Poetry: Against Vocation
Riley, Peter (Lecturer in American Literature, University of Exeter)
This volume is about the type of work that poets perform and why it matters. Challenging the divide between inspired poetic production and other apparently lesser and contingent forms of labor, this book considers the poetry of Walt Whitman the real estate dealer, Herman Melville the customs inspector, and Hart Crane the copywriter.
