According to Yeats, rhetoric is the expression of one’s quarrels with others, while poetry is the expression (and sometimes the resolution) of one’s quarrel with oneself. This is where Vendler begins in Our Secret Discipline. Through exquisite attention to outer and inner forms, Vendler explores the most inventive reaches of the poet's mind.
