It is always a wonder to get to read and think with Marjorie Levinson. And Thinking through Poetry is a big idea book. I was inspired by the ways the forms of the individual chapters increasingly experiment with the field theory of forms the book describes. ...Thinking through Poetry derives a new theoretical model for poetry and offers us a chance to think through poetry anew, with more rigorous attention to fields of differences and the ways poetry still matters. * Brian McGrath, Modern Philology *
