| Zusammenfassung: | Philip Nel takes a fascinating look into the key aspects of Seuss's career - his poetry, politics, art, marketing, and place in the popular imagination." "Nel argues convincingly that Dr. Seuss is one of the most influential poets in America. His nonsense verse, like that of Lewis Carroll and Edward Lear, has changed language itself, giving us new words like "nerd." And Seuss's famously loopy artistic style - what Nel terms an "energetic cartoon surrealism" - has been equally important, inspiring artists like filmmaker Tim Burton and illustrator Lane Smith. --from back cover |

| adam_text | Dr. Seuss: American Icon examines one of the most influential authors and artists of
the 20th century:
Theodor
Seuss
Geisel,
best known as Dr.
Ѕеиѕѕ.**
Here, Philip
Nel
takes a fascinating look into the key aspects of Seuss s career
—
hie poetry, polities, art,
marketing, and place in the popular imagination.
Nel
argues cewrincingiy that Dr.
Ѕеиѕѕ
is one of the most influential poets in America. Hie
nonsense verse, like that of Lewis Carroll and Edward Lear, has changed language itself,
giving as new words like nerd, And Sense s famously loopy artistic style
—
what
Nel
terms an energetie cartoon sarrealism
—
has been equally important, inspiring artists
like filmmaker Tun Burton and ffluetrator Lane Smith.
Beyond establishing Sense s place among poets and artists, the book brings to light the
adult perspective behind the children s writer. Philip
Nel
looks into Sense s lesser-known
works, saeh as the adult book Tim Seven Ludf
Goâivas^
the live-action musical The
5ß00
Fingers of
Dr*
T, and the early magazine cartoons. He also illustrates how, though
mostly famous
fer
teaching
еЫИгеи
to read,
Ѕенаѕ
was also an activist who wanted young
readers to ip-ow up to be better citizens. He wrote Yertfa the Turtk as a parable about
the rise of Hffler, while
Tue
Sneetches attacks bigotry, and The
Lerax critißizes
those
who exploit the environment.
Dr. Seuss: Amerieom Icon is an incisive and indispensable guide to the work and legacy
of the creative genius behind the Cat in the Hat,
Sam-1
-аш,
and the Grinch,
