Abstract
Edwin Muir has often embarrassed critics as a rara avis. He was overlooked by anthologists before 1950 and, although subsequent anthologies never failed to include him, he was still hard to place for many readers. Labelled as a “traditionalist” or a “craftsman”, his later work proves however that Muir was much more. Understanding his use of myth, form and intertextuality enables us to rethink the significance of his work in the twentieth-century context.
Edwin Muir a menudo ha avergonzado a los críticos como una rara avis. Los antólogos lo pasaron por alto antes de 1950 y, aunque las antologías posteriores nunca dejaron de incluirlo, todavía era difícil de ubicar para muchos lectores. Etiquetado como "tradicionalista" o "artesano", su trabajo posterior demuestra sin embargo que Muir fue mucho más. Comprender su uso del mito, la forma y la intertextualidad nos permite repensar el significado de su obra en el contexto del siglo XX.
