Considered by many to be the most characteristically American of our twentieth-century poets, William Carlos Williams "wanted to write a poem / that you would understand / ,,,But you got to try hard—." So that readers could more fully understand the extent of Williams' radical simplicity, all of his published poetry, excluding Paterson, was reissued in two definite volumes, of which this is the first.

The aim of this study is twofold: to document William Carlos Williams' interest in, and response to, such movements as vorticism, Dada and the American "local" school, and to apply this background material to a close examination of his verse as he moved toward the complex structure of "Spring and All". The book uses sources from unpublished Williams material, and draws upon many previously uncollected articles that appeared in the "little magazines" of the 1910s and 1920s. This study has an international scope, recognizing Williams' important relationship with Ezra Pound and also his interest in the work and theories of Kandinsky.
