Toshiaki Komura analyzes a range of elegiac poetry that does not neatly align with conventional assumptions about the genre, including Wallace Stevens's \"The Owl in the Sarcophagus,\" Sylvia Plath's last poems, Elizabeth Bishop's Geography III, Sharon Olds's The Dead and the Living, Louise Glück's Averno, and poems written after 9\/11. What these poems reveal at the intersection of personal and communal mourning are the mechanism of cognitive myth-making involved in denied grief and its social and ethical implications. Engaging with an assortment of philosophical, psychoanalytic, and psychological theories, Lost Loss in American Elegiac Poetry elucidates how poetry gives shape to the vague despondency of unrecognized loss and what kind of phantomic effects these equivocal grieving experiences may create.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eToshiaki Komura is associate professor of English at Kobe College.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 246\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.53 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 12, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53344497467699,"sku":"9781793612649","price":84.31,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/NLoyhUwOg19781793612649.webp?v=1778725754","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/lost-loss-in-american-elegiac-poetry-tracing-inaccessible-grief-from-stevens-to-post-9-11-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
