The Crowning of a Poet s Quest
Derek
Walcotťs
Tiepolo s Hound-
This first extended study of Derek Wal-
cott s Tiepolo s Hound
(2000)
defines the
book as the culmination of the poetry
and poetic of the Caribbean writer and
Nobel Prize winner. In this long poem,
Walcott achieves three goals pursued
throughout his career: to develop an
original Caribbean aesthetic; to meld
the modes of poetry and prose; and to
formulate the
Bildung
of the island-art¬
ist in terms of an autobiographical nar¬
rative. The analysis provides an aesthetic
and cultural evaluation of the poem, in
terms both of the Western poetic tradi¬
tion to which it refers through its rich
intertextuality and of its significance as a
postcolonial
milestone.
The commentary locates Walcott in
an aesthetic tradition running from Em¬
erson through the American Pragmatists
to modernist poets; describes his experi¬
mental use of certain central narrative
strategies in his semi-autobiographical
long poems, which is compared to those
of another, openly admired, bilingual
writer, Vladimir Nabokov; explores
Walcotťs
revision of the epic mode and
of the genre of autobiography; delineates
his unfolding of a post-Romantic inter-
nalization of the poet s Arthurian quest;
and discusses his complex treatment of
the multi-layered metaphor of light as
major evidence of the maturity of his
style and poetic, with their conscious
cross-fertilization between the literary
cultures of Europe and the Caribbean.
An appendix to this study contains the
transcriptions of various Walcott events
that took place in Italy in the summers
of
2000
and
2001,
including a creative
writing seminar, a press conference,
and readings. This extensive material
opens a window onto
Walcotťs
gifts as
a teacher, to his stringent yet passionate
commitment to the art of poetry, and to
the ways in which he and his students
grapple with the challenges of literary
translation.
