'Mallarmé's Divagations: A Guide and Commentary' constitutes the most thorough study to date of this group of difficult texts by the nineteenth-century poet who has most profoundly influenced modern critical thought and aesthetics. Professor Cohn, who has devoted his life to Stéphane Mallarmé's work, gives us a brilliant commentary and an ideal guide indeed. (Ursula Franklin, Grand Valley State University) ...any student of Mallarmé, from undergraduate to postbac, who uses a Cohn critical volume such as this one, thanks the lucky stars for their beneficent guidance. More seasoned scholars,... will learn from and recognize that 'Mallarmé's Divagations: A Guide and Commentary' fits comfortably within the 'Grand oeuvre' that is Robert Greer Cohn's masterful lifework. (Katherine C. Kurk, Nineteenth-Century French Studies) ...Cohn presents his material with admirable clarity and much that relates to the literary issues of our own time. (Dorothy M. Betz, French Review) Skryť popis
