    Extractions: A Critical Survey of His Career Wilbur had an odd but idyllic childhood. In 1923 his family moved to North Caldwell, New Jersey where they rented a pre-Revolutionary stone house on a four-hundred acre estate owned by a charming but eccentric English millionaire. Few other children lived nearby, so the poet and his younger brother Lawrence amused themselves by wandering the farm and countryside. This pleasant rural boyhood surely helped form the imagination that later created such memorable nature poems as "Hamlen Brook" and "The Beautiful Changes."

    Extractions: Richard Wilbur (b. 1921) Contributing Editor: Bernard F. Engel 1. Compare Wilbur's vigorous defense of traditional patterns, metrics, and rhyme with Charles Olson's essay "Projective Verse" or similar arguments for "open form." Early comments on Wilbur's tight artistic discipline appear in M. L. Rosenthal's The Modern Poets (Oxford University Press, 1960). Rosenthal admires Wilbur's technical skill but argues that his work is overly traditional. A strong defense of Wilbur as a "darker" poet, one "more complex, passionate, and original" than critics sometimes take him to be, appears in Bruce Michelson's book. A number of critical views are summarized in Engel's Research Guide article. 2. Donald Hill's Richard Wilbur (1967) has several passages discussing critics who compare Wilbur's work with that of Robert Lowell , Howard Nemerov, and others. Useful comparison could also be made with Richard Eberharta poet who is equally convinced that the flesh is poetry's environment but is nevertheless more willing to move into mysticism and exclamation. "'A World Without Objects Is a Sensible Emptiness'"

Wilbur was born in New York City on March 1 st Saturday Evening Post , who then published it. Soon, his works became famous, and even critics could not help but applaud his style and themes. Wilbur now wrights poetry as well as some small plays, and has only one flaw. His poems are too short. One critic says, “Mr. Wilbur never goes too far, but he never goes far enough” (Padgett, 151). Wilbur was awarded two Pulitzer Prizes, one for New and Collected Poems (1988) and one for Things of This World (1956), which also won the National Book award. He has also earned the Wallace Stevens Award, the Aiken Taylor Award for Modern American Poetry, the Frost Medal, the Gold Medal for Poetry from the American Academy of Arts and Letters, the Bollingen Prize, the T. S. Eliot Award, a Ford Foundation Award, two Guggenheim Fellowships, the Edna St. Vincent Millay Memorial Award, the Harriet Monroe Poetry Award, the National Arts Club medal of honor for literature, two PEN translation awards, the Prix de Rome Fellowship, and the Shelley Memorial Award.

    Extractions: Underlying Themes and Thoughts So, I started reading his poems after one of those long conversations about the Iliad. This is what happened. The poem: A Hole in the Floor staring down into it now at four o clock in the evening, as Schliemann stood when his shovel knocked on the crowns of Troy. A clean cut sawdust sparkles on the grey, shaggy laths and here is a cluster of shavings from the time when the floor was laid. They are silvery-gold, the color Of Hesperian apple-parings. Kneeling, I looks in under- Where the joists go into hiding A pure street, faintly littered with bits and strokes of light, enters the long darkness where its parallels will meet. The radiator-pipe rises in the middle distance like a shuttered kiosk, standing where the only news is night. as it is in the visible world. Some treasure, or tiny garden? Or that untrodden place, where time has stored our footbeats and the long skein of our voices? Not these, but the buried strangeness which nourishes the known: That spring from which the floor lamp drinks now a wilder bloom inflaming the damask love seat and the whole dangerous room.
