Physical description: xiv, 102 p., 16 p. of plates : ill. ; 24 cm. Notes; Includes index. Bibliography: p. [93]-98. Summary: F. Richard Thomas argues convincingly that Alfred Stieglitz wielded an extraordinary influence on the works of such literary figures as Gertrude Stein, Hart Crane, Sherwood Anderson, and William Carlos Williams. The implications of his argument bear not only on the aesthetics, styles, and perceptions of these major American literary figures but on the progress of contemporary photography as well.
