Exploring the intersection of ethics and aesthetics, the book positions Louis Zukofsky as a pivotal figure in American poetic modernism, particularly within the Objectivist tradition. Through the frameworks of Theodor Adorno and Emmanuel Levinas, the author establishes an ethical genealogy that connects Zukofsky to contemporary LANGUAGE poetry. This innovative analysis bridges modernism and postmodernism, offering fresh insights into a previously overlooked aspect of modernist poetics and its ethical implications.
