HUGH KENNER (1923-2003) was a Canadian literary scholar, critic and professor. Considered the premier scholar and critic of literary modernism of his generation, Kenner published widely on the subject with particular emphasis on James Joyce, Ezra Pound, and Samuel Beckett. His major study of the period, THE POUND ERA (1971), argued for Pound as the central figure of Modernism, and is considered one of the most important works on the topic.
Unlike most of his fellow academics and literary critics, Kenner knew personally, and collaborated with, many of the subjects about whom he has written, including Beckett, T. S. Eliot, Wyndham Lewis, William Carlos Williams, and Louis Zukofsky. He is generally acknowledged as the pre-eminent authority on Ezra Pound and one of the major voices of James Joyce scholarship. The 1951 publication of his Yale dissertation THE POETRY OF EZRA POUND was the first serious book on the subject to be published in America, and DUBLIN'S JOYCE (1955) and JOYCE'S VOICES (1978) are considered classics in Joyce criticism.
Kenner's numerous articles and publications on modernist studies examine the movement in broad terms in a manner accessible to a general readership: THE POUND ERA (1971) , the product of years of scholarship and considered to be Kenner's masterpiece, outlines international modernism and was responsible for enshrining Pound's reputation, damaged by his wartime activities, as one of the greatest Modernists; A HOMEMADE WORLD (1975) analyzes American modernist writers; A COLDER EYE (1983), the Irish modernists; and A SINKING ISLAND (1988), the English modernists. Fellow critic and writer Guy Davenport summarized, "Kenner gave us a way to read Pound, as he has given us a way to read Joyce and Beckett. This is not to say that these are the only way to read these writers: What Kenner does best is show us how to read, and how to appreciate what we read. A critic cannot hope for more success."
No one could accuse Kenner of being narrowly literary, and he also wrote on mathematics, science, technology, and visual arts. These books include BUCKY: A GUIDED TOUR OF BUCKMINSTER FULLER (1973), an engaging account of the American techno-transcendentalist thinker and his theories of cosmic order, and GEODESIC MATH AND HOW TO USE IT (1976), on the theory behind Fuller's celebrated dome structures. In 1984 he even wrote a user's guide to the Heath H100 computer (alas, not included here).
