Art Criticism Comparative Literature Womens Studies The work of Sylvia Plath and Leonard Baskin is thematically intertwined. Both Plath and Baskin focused on the darker aspects of life in their work: death, emotional chaos and the shadow of mortality. Rather than bask in emotional nihilism, both artists illuminate the emotional landscape of the darkness they walk through, harnessing the ever-present brutality of life and molding it into art. This thesis explores these main themes of Plath's poetry and Baskin's art, identifying specific uses of these themes in the common narrative that threads through their work in their respective fields. 2012-05-15 English text University of Akron / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=akron1335324158 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=akron1335324158 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
