Hanauer Lecture

Susannah Gottlieb

Communications 120

For History and Against Grand Narratives:

>From W. H. Auden’s Reflections on Freud

to his “Homage to Clio”

This highly comparative study of Auden reads the rhythms and themes of his 
poetry in relation to Marianne Moore, D.H. Lawrence, Rilke, and Nietzsche, as 
he draws in the work of three rather quirky historians—Charles Norris Cochrane, 
Eugen Rosenstock Huessey, and Denis de Rougemont.

Susannah Gottlieb is Associate Chair and Professor of English at Northwestern 
University, where she directs the Poetry and Poetics Colloquium and Workshop. 
She is the author of Regions of Sorrow: Anxiety and Messianism in Hannah Arendt 
and W.H. Auden (Stanford University Press, 2003) and the editor of Hannah 
Arendt: Reflections on Literature and Culture (Stanford University Press, 
2007). Her interests include modern British and American poetry and poetics, 
continental philosophy and political theory, German-Jewish intellectual 
history, and Asian American literary traditions. Her current book project is 
entitled The Importance of Metaphysics: The Intellectual Heresies of W. H. 
Auden.
