'White buildings'. 3). Emerging differences. 4). Progress on 'The Bridge'. 5). A threatening letter. 6). Their only meeting. 7). The last phase. 8). Epilogue. With appendix (about William Dinsmore Briggs), notes, bibliography and index. Facsimile-page of Hart Crane' typescript. Harold Hart Crane (1899 - 1932) was an American poet. Finding both inspiration and provocation in the poetry of T. S. Eliot, Crane wrote modernist poetry that was difficult, highly stylized, and ambitious in its scope. In his most ambitious work, 'The Bridge', Crane sought to write an epic poem, in the vein of 'The Waste Land'. Arthur Yvor Winters (1900 - 1968) was an American poet and literary critic.
