    Paperback. Etat : Very Good. One of the most important and popular American poets of the 20th century, e. e. cummings is best known for his brilliant and innovative verse and its distinctive lack of uppercase letters and conventional grammar. He was also a Cubist painter and a World War I veteran. At the age of 23, he abandoned his artistic pursuits for voluntary service as an ambulance driver in France. His military career culminated in a comedy of errors leading to his arrest and imprisonment for treason, as he memorably recounts in The Enormous Room. Cummings transforms a tale of unjust incarceration into a high-energy romp and a celebration of the indomitable human spirit that ranks with the best of its contemporaries, including the works of Hemingway and Dos Passos. This edition restores a significant amount of material deleted from the book's initial publication in 1922. …

    Paperback. Etat : Fair. ?Marvelously unconventional.a credo of intense individualism.??AtlanticA brilliantly eccentric autobiography from one of the most widely read poets of the twentieth century. ?Let me cordially warn you, at the opening of these socalled lectures, that I haven?t the remotest intention of posing as a lecturer.? So begins the first of six delightfully off-kilter ?nonlectures? delivered at Harvard in 1952?1953. Gleefully flouting the conventions of the prestigious Charles Eliot Norton Professorship in Poetry, which had previously hosted T. S. Eliot, Igor Stravinsky, and other luminaries, E. E. Cummings declines to offer anything in the way of critical analysis, citing Rainer Maria Rilke?s contention that ?Works of art are of an infinite loneliness and with nothing to be so little reached as with criticism.? Instead, six nonlectures presents a kaleidoscopic tour of the great poet?s life, influences, and favorite poems, from Chaucer, Wordsworth, and Swinburne to selections of his own work.

So begins the first of six delightfully off-kilter ?nonlectures? delivered at Harvard in 1952?1953. Gleefully flouting the conventions of the prestigious Charles Eliot Norton Professorship in Poetry, which had previously hosted T. S. Eliot, Igor Stravinsky, and other luminaries, E. E.
