Abstract

In the introduction, Bernstein (English, U. of California, Berkeley) describes what he calls the "modernist masterpiece as a distinct and historically circumscribed form." In the five essays that follow, he analyzes the work of Rainer Maria Rilke, Paul Celan, Robert Musil, Martin Heidegger, and Walter Benjamin. c. Book News Inc.
