Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Mythic Archetypes in Ralph Waldo Emerson explores the American writers essays as mythic prose poems, suggesting a new approach to the practical criticism of Emersons works. Richard OKeefe uses the archetypal modela critical tool seldom employed on American Romantics, yet frequently applied in the study of British Romantic poets such as William Blaketo contemporize methods of examining Emersonian texts. Blake and Emerson, both products of a Christian culture, found themselves forceda generation apart and quite independentlyto redefine and reinterpret the traditional body of Christian myth they had inherited. Concentrating on the Romantic, prophetic voice in Emersons writings, OKeefe discovers an American version of Blakes fourfold myth of Creation, Fall, Redemption, and Apocalypse. The presence of these recurrent mythic metaphors leads him to conclude that Emerson appears less as a Transcendental sage and more as a radical existential poet, visionary, and prophet. OKeefe presents a balanced selection of works from Emersons early and late career and provides particularly insightful readings of Circle and the Divinity School Address. His innovative study will be of value to scholars of Emerson, Blake, and American romanticism as well as to critical theorists and comparative literature specialists.
