The Matter of High Words: Naturalism, Normativity, and the Postwar Sage
Chodat, Robert (Associate Professor of English, Associate Professor of English, Boston University)
In a world of matter, how can we express what matters? This book examines a constellation of post-WWII authors who pose this question through both art and argument. Seeking to dramatize our highest words, these postwar sages raise essential questions about meaning, language, science, and modernity.
