Notes: Princeton. 2011. Princeton University Press. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Dustjacket. 9780691138152. Edited and with an introduction by Alan Jacobs. 1 halftone. 216 pages. hardcover. keywords: Poetry. FROM THE PUBLISHER-THE FIRST CRITICAL EDITION OF A POEM THAT NAMED AN ERA. When it was first published in 1947, The Age of Anxiety-W. H. Auden's last, longest, and most ambitious book-length poem-immediately struck a powerful chord, capturing the imagination of the cultural moment that it diagnosed and named. Beginning as a conversation between four strangers in a barroom on New York's Third Avenue, Auden's analysis of Western culture during the Second World War won the Pulitzer Prize and inspired a symphony by Leonard Bernstein as well as a ballet by Jerome Robbins. Yet reviews of the poem were sharply divided, and today, despite its continuing fame, it is unjustly neglected by readers. This volume-the first annotated, critical edition of the poem-introduces this important work to a new generation of readers by putting it in historical and biographical context and elucidating its difficulties. Alan Jacobs's introduction and thorough annotations help today's readers understand and appreciate the full richness of a poem that contains some of Auden's most powerful and beautiful verse, and that still deserves a central place in the canon of twentieth-century poetry. Fascinating and hair-raising. '-Leonard Bernstein [Auden's] most significant piece of work . [W]e have in W. H. Auden a master musician of rhythm and note, unable to be dull, in fact an enchanter, under the magic of indigenous gusto . The Age of Anxiety assures us that fear and lust have, in faith and purity, a cure so potent we need never know panic or be defeated by Self. '-Marianne Moore, New York Times W. H. Auden: Critical Editions Edward Mendelson, General Editor. inventory #37822.
