Description: In this detailed analysis of Auden's (1907-73) poetry and plays, Emig (English, U. of Wales-Cardiff) shows how the British poet first engaged with modernism, then eventually rejected its nostalgia for lost certainties and attempts at renewed wholeness. He finds that Auden's work recognizes the riskiness of questions of the self, and challenges the individual to act responsibly in the face of an absence of guarantees, guidelines, and truths.
