A literary critic aspires to eloquence, though makes no pretense to mirror the sublimity of the monuments inspiring his endeavors. Poets express their wonder through works of art. Critics articulate their homage via analysis of art’s workings. Hence, these essays and lectures, addressed to the quizzical, though not of necessity scholarly, reader, explore Shakespeare and noted re-envisioners of the Bard; four modern novels that interrogate identity; and underappreciated works and writers. They conclude with a series of pensees (thinkings) that, in the course of glossing nuances, reflect upon the interpretative craft itself.

Ethan Lewis is Professor of English at the University of Illinois-Springfield, USA. He has authored five previous books, including (with Robert Kuhn McGregor) an Edgar Allan Poe Award-winning monograph on Dorothy L. Sayers, Conundrums for the Long Weekend; and Modernist Image, Reflexive Poetics, The Shakespeare Project and Ensuing Essays, and Literary Nuances: Millions of Strange Shadows. His work has appeared in diverse scholarly venues, including Paideuma, Spring (journals of the Ezra Pound and E.E. Cummings Societies, respectively), South Dakota Review, University of Mississippi Studies in English, and Papers of the International Symbolist Conference. His chapter on “Imagism” is included in The Cambridge Companion to Ezra Pound. He is also the author of two volumes of poetry, Take Fives: A Century of Short Studies in Pentameter, and Into a Third Century.
