Not Text but Texture: C.P. Cavafy's Poems Unread, Unfinished, Unwritten
Alexander Nehamas

Paper Summary

C.P. Cavafy writes poems about other poets' works without describing them in detail. Instead, he conveys the essence of these poems through associations with known literary figures. In some cases, Cavafy's poems about others' works are actually poems by Cavafy himself, blurring the lines between the two.
