Abstract
This thesis, through the medium of explication of specific poems,
attempts to reveal Snyder's involvement with am use of Zen and primitivism in his written work. The poems explicated are not necessarily
chosen to be generally representative of Snyder's style, nor his ·growth
as a poet. Much of Snyder's poetry does not lend itself to detailed
analytical (dualistic) explication. Rather, I have chosen poems which
facilitate analytical explication, but which illustrate Snyder's various
involvements with Zen and primitivism.
