In addition, a University Research Grant from Illinois State University allowed me to analyze critical poetry by Philippe Soupault. Further research was carried out at Christ Church Col- lege, Oxford University, where I spent six delightful months as Fowler Hamilton Visiting Research Fellow. Much of the book itself was written during my stay in Oxford. As always, I am indebted to Joan Winters and the staff in the Circulation Department of Milner LibraryatIllinoisStateUniversitywho,liketheircounterpartsinIn- terlibraryLoan,wereconsistently helpfulasthe projectprogressed.
