Stevie Smith and the Aphorism

Hard Language

Beschreibung

Explores the literature of Stevie Smith with particular emphasis on the importance of the aphorism: a short, witty saying which expresses a general truth. It argues that the aphorism offers Smith a means of managing emotional statements in her work, enabling her to make, and make light of, sincere or dramatic communications.
