Depression Glass: Documentary Photography and the Medium of the Camera-Eye in Charles Reznikoff, George Oppen, and William Carlos Williams - Literary Criticism and Cultural Theory
Monique Vescia
Juxtaposing the work of Reznikoff, Oppen and WC William, with the camera work of Walker Evans, Lewis Hine and Alfred Stieglitz, this book exposes the fundamental affinities between documentary photography and modern poetry as forms of expression. It demonstrates how these poets comprised an alternative "tradition" dedicated to social realism.
