London: University of Illinois Press, CHAPTER IV THE STONE BODY All authors establish their relations with tradition, whether they wish to conform to the past, destroy it, or toy with it. Deeply read in past literatures, Wright sought to develop his own poetic language, adapting and inventing styles, as we have seen. But he established his
... relation^ ship to artistic traditions in other ways. First, he wrote many elegies for poets and other artists with whom he has stylistic or thematic affinities, in effect, becoming the kin, soul-mate, or thankful student of these artists. He also alluded repeatedly to certain artists, sometimes as a way of conducting dialogues with their work. Finally, he established a connection to tradition in the few poems in his final book which speculate on the artist's "immortality" through the figure of the human form in statuary, A prime example of Wright's elegizing strategy can be found in "In Memory of Leopardi," from Shall We Gather At the River .
