Reviews
"Modernist use of myth went from the enigmatic to the banal without the intervening stage of being understood. Recent resurgence of interest in myth, however, allows for more searching and discriminating treatment as Scott Freer's book shows. His close discussion of a variety of modernist writers (Nietzsche, T. S. Eliot, Kafka, Lawrence, Hilda Doolittle and Wallace Stevens) brings out the differing conceptions of myth in literary writers of the period and places the topic within a larger context of modern philosophical aesthetics." - Emeritus Professor Michael Bell, University of Warwick, UK
