Abstract

W.H. Auden consistently communicated a sense of “in-betweenness” in his writing, as a way of getting at his perceived truth about the modern experience of existence. He felt that modernity lacked a solid foundation in morals or philosophy. He sought security and stability; he sought a foundation. His poetic work throughout the course of his career reflects both his need to be true to the “in-betweenness” of life and his search for foundational concepts and security.
