Robert Stark

Robert Stark is the author of Ezra Pound and Lyric Tradition: A Jargoner's Apprenticeship (Edinburgh University Press, 2012). Ernest Dowson: Lyric Lives – the first full-length, critical work to appear on this neglected, canonical poet – is his latest book, forthcoming from Oxford University Press in November 2023, and he is now preparing a chronological, variorum edition of Dowson's collected works for Edinburgh University Press (projected for 2025). A Middle North, Stark's debut collection of original poetry, appeared in 2014. Since graduating, he has taught Modern Literature in the United States, Europe and throughout the world.
