of American Council of Learned Societies, NEH, and Guggenheim fellowships,
he is chiefly interested in 19th-and 20th-century literature, formal and

worked on editions of novels by Hardy, Bennett, Meredith; on the first three
volumes of a complete edition of Auden, as well as selections of Auden's
poems and prose. His recent essays appear in Romanic Review, Yale French
Studies, TLS, Raritan; and as introduction to a new edition of Gravity's
Rainbow. He has also written about computers, music, and the visual arts.
