Bloom, Harold

Complete Citation:
Bloom, Harold. A Map of Misreading. New York: Oxford University Press, 1975: 162.
Notes:

Only one reference to Ives: "The war of American poets against influence is part of our Emersonian heritage, manifested first in the great triad of 'The Divinity School Address,' 'The American Schol-ar,' and ‘Self--Reliance.' This heritage can be traced in Thoreau, Whit-man, Dickinson and quite directly again in Robinson and Frost, in the architectural writings of Sullivan and Wright, in the Essays Before a Sonata of Charles Ives. The less direct heritage is more relevant to any brooding on the negative aspects of poetic influence, centering partly on Pound and Williams (where it is refracted through Whitman) and partly on Stevens, who disliked the very idea of influence."
