John Hawke follows this rich and complex tradition into recent poetry; he compares the impact of Vitalism, promoted by Norman Lindsay and manifest in such poets as Slessor, Francis Webb and Douglas Stewart. His book also investigates fascinating dialogues involving P. R. Stephensen, Jack Lindsay, A. R. Chisholm, Randolph Hughes and others, and the extremist views which grew for some of them out of their positions on the Symbolist aesthetic.' Wollongong : University of Wollongong Press , 2009 pg. 28-40
