Avian diptych: Richard Wilbur’s flights of imagination
In two relatively neglected poems from the collection Things of This World, “All These Birds” and “An Event,” Richard Wilbur models an epistemologically perceptive and dynamic hermeneutic. “All These Birds” hesitantly acknowledges the legitimate insights of a materialist naturalism but also register...
