Hart Crane in Akron and Cleveland 1919-1923: Ohio roads and bridges to The Bridge

Identifier	hartcrane.pdf
Title	Hart Crane in Akron and Cleveland 1919-1923: Ohio roads and bridges to The Bridge
Subject	Crane, Hart Criticism Bridges Veterans Memorial Bridge (Cleveland, Ohio)
LC Subject Headings	Veterans Memorial Bridge (Cleveland, Ohio)
Description	"The essays focus on three pre-Bridge texts featuring the Road and Bridge symbols. The first essay suggests that [Hart] Crane's brief period in Akron following his return to Cleveland from New York in 1919 symbol texts, configuring the Road symbol with the figure of the Artist and showing continuity with the slightly later "The Bridge of Estador" Crane's earliest use of the Bridge symbol. The second essay shows how "Euclid Avenue" inaugurates Crane's identification of his artistic and erotic mission with celebrated urban infrastructure and proposes the Road as a symbol in its own right. The third essay argues for the organic integrity of "The Bridge of Estador" with The Bridge writings proper by linking it to the early drafts of the long poem, and shows the importance of Cleveland's bridges to these early imaginings of the Bridge symbol. A brief history of the Bridge symbol is outlined."--p. 5. The author examines whether Hart Crane actually had the Detroit-Superior Bridge in Cleveland, Ohio in mind when writing The Bridge rather than the Brooklyn Bridge, which critics have assumed was the focus of Crane's work.
