{"product_id":"unlimited-eligibility-ryan-cull-9798855802245","title":"Unlimited Eligibility?: Inclusive Democracy and the American Lyric","description":"What if increased visibility of marginalized identities--a goal of much socially committed lyric poetry in the United States--does not necessarily lead to increased social recognition? For many contemporary scholars, this is the central question of lyric politics. \u003ci\u003eUnlimited Eligibility?\u003c\/i\u003e revisits and deeply historicizes this question. Ryan Cull explores the relationship of a diverse set of poets, including Walt Whitman, Jean Toomer, Hart Crane, James Merrill, Thylias Moss, and Claudia Rankine, to a series of movements intended to build inclusion: the St. Louis Hegelians, cultural pluralism, identity politics, and multiculturalism. In tracing the tensions in lyric poetry's merger with the pursuit of recognition, Cull offers a new history of the political work of lyric poetry while exposing the discursive roots of the nation's faltering progress toward becoming a more inclusive democracy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ryan Cull\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798855802245\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e State University of New York Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/01\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.00d","brand":"Ryan Cull","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46451242107135,"sku":"9798855802245","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_70319bbc-3948-4417-8704-1b681e1c7331.jpg?v=1735876886","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/unlimited-eligibility-ryan-cull-9798855802245","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
