"The introductory essay Miss Glancy has written on James Dickey is a model of insight, care, and intelligence¿an essay which delineates the work (critical and poetical) of the subject while also providing just enough biographical information. However, it is the bibliography that is important to the reference librarian. . . . The work is quite complete and should make the jobs of the researchers and librarians considerably easier."--ARBA

Surveys the scholarship and criticism surrounding Dickey's work, detailing the poet's intent as well as the critical reception. In their analysis of James Dickey's work, critics have often assumed too narrow a focus, concerning themselves with a reputation as a man larger than life, who hunts rattlesnakes with a blowgun and who shoots white-water rapids.Such critics do not see the forest at all; they mistake the tree for the forest. In the more than thirty years since Dickey's first volume of poetry appeared, he has endeavoured to push himself and language into new realms. What he has said, and how he has said it, have evolved; it is what Dickey terms the "motion" of his poetry. And it has generated both solid scholarship and superficial criticism. Van Ness' study surveys the scholarship and criticism surrounding Dickey's work in a chronological and methodological manner. Its intent is to synthesise and assess and to suggest areas where further study remains. As it measures the motion, Outbelieving Existence details Dickey's intent as well as the critical reception. No other book has done this.

“You're hooked, you feel every cut, grope up every cliff, swallow water with every spill of the canoe, sweat with every draw of the bowstring. Wholly absorbing [and] dramatic.”—Harper's Magazine The setting is the Georgia wilderness, where the states most remote white-water river awaits. In the thundering froth of that river, in its echoing stone canyons, four men on a canoe trip discover a freedom and exhilaration beyond compare. And then, in a moment of horror, the adventure turns into a struggle for survival as one man becomes a human hunter who is offered his own harrowing deliverance. Praise for Deliverance “Once read, never forgotten.”—Newport News Daily Press “A tour de force . . . How a man acts when shot by an arrow, what it feels like to scale a cliff or to capsize, the ironic psychology of fear: these things are conveyed with remarkable descriptive writing.”—The New Republic “Freshly and intensely alive . . . with questions that haunt modern urban man.”—Southern Review “A fine and honest book that hits the reader's mind with the sting of a baseball just caught in the hand.”—The Nation “[James Dickey's] language has descriptive power not often matched in contemporary American writing.”—Time “A harrowing trip few readers will forget.”—Asheville Citizen-Times "A novel that will curl your toes . . . Dickey's canoe rides to the limits of dramatic tension."—New York Times Book Review "A brilliant and breathtaking adventure."—The New Yorker

James Dickey written by Henry Hart and has been published by Picador this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2001-09-08 with Biography & Autobiography categories.
A fascinating biography of one of the most popular, colorful, and notorious American poets of our century. The legendary Southern poet James Dickey never shied away from cultivating a heroic mystique. Like Norman Mailer and Ernest Hemingway, he earned a reputation as a sportsman, boozer, war hero, and womanizer as well as a great poet, novelist, screenwriter, and essayist. But James Dickey made lying both a literary strategy and a protective camouflage; even his family and closest friends failed to distinguish between the mythical James Dickey and the actual man. Henry Hart sees lying as the central theme to Dickey's life; and in this authoritative, immensely entertaining biography he delves deep behind Dickey's many masks. Letters, anecdotes, tall tales and true ones, as well as the reluctant but finally candid cooperation of Dickey himself animate Hart's narration of a remarkable life. Readers of Dickey's National Book Award-winning poetry, his bestselling novel Deliverance, and anyone who witnessed his electrifying readings of his work will savor this book.
