Summary: The metaphysical allure of Wallace Stevens's poetry lies in its exploration of the connection between change and unity, and in its presentation of a cosmic, shapeless spirit-principle that transcends Western philosophical and religious traditions. Stevens's mystical and ontological insights prompt a transformation from conception to perception, and evoke a transcendent feeling that reshapes the relationship between self and world. His exploration of the senses of order during times of war offers new perspectives on political and social change in modern democratic countries.
