Background
Altieri specializes in 20th century
Visual Arts, and seminars on specific poets, theoretical problems, and interdisciplinary period studies. In his book on the reading of Wallace Stevens as a poet of what Altieri calls 'philosophical poetry', Altieri discusses his own reading of the relevance of such philosophers as Hegel and Wittgenstein while presenting a speculative interpretation of Stevens under this interpretative approach.[2]
