A.D. Hope has long been Australia's most internationally renowned poet. This study seeks to read Hope's poetry and criticism in terms of several overlapping contexts: critical debate about Australian poetry; 20th-century poetry as a whole (including French, German and Russian poets who have influenced the poet); and Alec Derwent Hope's intellectual and cultural commitments (such as his aesthetic theory, as drawn from Aquinas and others, his interest in science and mathematics, his cultural politics in the university and contemporary critical theory).
