description: Focusing on three governing metaphors in Stevens's poems Nature as house, body, and self the author argues that Stevens's youthful wilderness experience yielded his primary poetic subject (the relationship between humans and nature) and shifted his understanding of nature from romantic to phenomenological. She draws on the extraliterary discourses of phenomenology and ecology, mapping the landscape of Stevens's career and canon. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
