The aim of the thesis is to explore the intellectual influence that W. H. Auden’s friendship with Reinhold Niebuhr had on both his life and poetry and how this relates to the ties between W. H. Auden and the US Cold War propaganda. The thesis will focus on both the wider political and cultural US Cold War environment of the period from the late 1940s to the early 1960s and the impact it had on Auden’s work, and the more particular influence of Reinhold Niebuhr’s link to this environment on Auden. The more general focus on the US Cold War propaganda and its soft power notion (as opposed to the Soviet propaganda policy) will be examined through the example of W. H. Auden and the impact of the American soft power on his work. That will be considered along with and linked to the significance of Reinhold Niebuhr and his philosophical perspective, which combines the moral and the political, for W. H. Auden and how it affected the further development and shaping of Auden’s own stance, both critical and poetic. |
