Amy Lowell
Amy Lowell ( 27k JPG image ), American Imagist poet, was a woman of great accomplishment. She was born in Brookline, Massachusetts, to a prominent family of high-achievers. Her environment was literary and sophisticated, and when she left private school at 17 to care for her elderly parents, she embarked on a program of self-education. Her poetic career began in 1902 when she saw Eleonora Duse, a famous actress, perform on stage. Overcome with Eleonora's beauty and talent, she wrote her first poem addressed to the actress. They met only a couple times and never developed a relationship, but Eleonora inspired many poems from Amy and triggered her career. Ada Russell, another actress, became the love of Amy's life. She met Ada in 1909 and they remained together until Amy's death in 1925. Amy wrote many, many poems about Ada. In the beginning, as with her previous poems about women, she wrote in such a way that only those who knew the inspiration for a poem would recognize its lesbian content. But as time went on, she censored her work less and less. By the time she wrote Pictures of the Floating World , her poems about Ada were much more blatantly erotic. The series "Planes of Personality: Two Speak Together" chronicles their relationship, including the intensely erotic poem

Amy Lowell (1874-1925)
Contributing Editor: Lillian Faderman
Classroom Issues and Strategies
I generally use Amy Lowell's work to explore two major issues: the imagist movement as it was imported into the United States and the treatment of lesbian material by a lesbian poet who felt the need to be more closeted in her writing than in her life. While the subject of Lowell's imagism is easy to introduce, the subject of homosexuality in her life and writing has been more difficult because students are sometimes uncomfortable with the topic, and they are ignorant of the history of censorship and homophobia in the United States. The study of Lowell's life and work presents a good opportunity to open these important subjects to discussion. Lowell's lesbianism and the ways in which it is manifested in her writing generally stimulate some of the liveliest discussions of the course. For example, some students question, as did the critics who dampened her popularity in the years immediately after her death, whether a writer who is homosexual can have anything significant to say to the heterosexual majority. My approach is to draw an analogy (or, with any luck, to have students in the class draw the analogy) to the profound impact on white readers of works by writers of color. "Differentness" becomes the theme of the discussion. This preliminary discussion of ethnic and racial difference and its impact on writing and reading leads to a discussion of sexual difference and its parallel impact. Either members of the class or I will bring up other writers with whom most of the class may be familiar and whose work they considered no less effective because those writers were gay or lesbian (for example

Amy Lowell
Amy Lowell The daughter of a “Boston Brahmin” family, Amy Lowell had two brothers: Lawrence, President of Harvard University, and Percival, the astronomer who observed Mars and also established the Lowell Observatory in Arizona. After early education at home, Amy Lowell was an unruly young student at school. She taught herself much by reading books in her father’s 7,000-volume library and at the Boston Athenaeum’s collection. She was five feet tall and 240 pounds. Her suitor broke off their engagement suddenly. Nervous prostration was followed by a slow convalescence. After a crisis, she found her vocation: She decided to become a poet. Moreover, she strengthened other poets, such as Robert Frost, in creating a new form of literature described as American Renaissance. Lowell’s contribution to life was stabilized by her “Boston Marriage” to actress Ada Dwyer Russell, a commitment which lasted until the poet’s death at 51.

A contemporary described Lowell as a "ponderous and regal figure." Courtesy Harvard University Archives "She was not only poetical but the cause of poetry in others," wrote Henry Seidel Canby, editor of The Saturday Review, after a cerebral hemorrhage killed Amy Lowell in 1925. "She, as well as her poetry, will take a place in American literature...a tribute few can expect." A Dome of Many-Coloured Glass, in 1912. Some critics respected the melodious quality of Lowell's verse, but most felt she relied too heavily on nineteenth-century tradition. Few criticisms could have been worse. That year marked a flashpoint for poetic innovation: Ezra Pound was formalizing Imagism; Harriet Monroe had founded the experimental journal Poetry; and vers libre, which deemphasized meter and rhyme in favor of cadence and rhythm, was gaining favor. Des Imagistes, a landmark anthology. Sword Blades and Poppy Seed, Lowell's second volume of poetry, earned raves, but struck Pound as treating Imagist tenets too loosely. When Lowell began planning her own anthology, Pound was outraged; he believed her contributors' poetry lacked Imagism's hallmark intensity. He refused to contribute, and mockingly branded Lowell and her group "Amygists." Poetry magazine with citizens of South Carolina. Her poem "Magnolia Gardens" describes her disappointment at finding the blooms at a famous Charleston garden a "Hateful,/Reeking with sensuality,/Bestial, obscene" shade of magenta. After residents wrote letters challenging her perception, Lowell found another poem describing the flowers as magenta, convinced its author to submit it to

Amy Lowell’s ‘Fireworks’
Colors and Shapes of Rage
Linda Sue Grimes Jan 9, 2008
In Amy Lowell's "Fireworks," the speaker dramatizes the rage she feels toward her enemy by tossing out images one might see at a fireworks display.
poem consists of eleven couplets arranged in seven stanzas of 2, 4, 4, 2, 4, 4, 2 lines, offering a neat symmetry. The subject of hate is, therefore, presented as an ultra-controlled emotion. The fireworks display consists of many shapes and colors, but they are set in an atmosphere of control. In the opening couplet, the speaker addresses another person telling that person that they hate each other, but they are polite about it.
dictionary definition
The final couplet simply summarizes what has already been asserted: that when the two enemies meet, their hatred produces fireworks.

Your walk is like the blowing of a beech-tree On a hill. Your voice is like leaves Softly struck upon by a South wind. Your shadow is no shadow, but a scattered sunshine; And at night you pull the sky down to you And hood yourself in stars. But I am like a great oak under a cloudy sky, Watching a stripling beech grow up at my feet. Amy Lowell Another Imagist poem... I like Imagist poetry :-) 'Generations' is deceptively simple in thought and execution. I say 'deceptively', because it's difficult to appreciate today how revolutionary poems like this one were, back in the early years of this century. To an audience who had grown up on a diet of maudlin Victorian poets, the plain and unadorned yet intensely evocative works of art fashioned by Pound and his ilk came as nothing short of a revelation. It takes great skill and painstaking craftsmanship to make poetic statements with their particular type of compressed 'meaningfulness'; today's poem may not be as brilliantly concentrated as some, but it's nevertheless a fine piece of work, elegant and unforced. And yes, I used the phrase 'works of art' quite intentionally, in the previous paragraph. I've always felt that Imagist poetry is closer to painting than it is to literature - read 'The Red Wheelbarrow', Minstrels

You hate me and I hate you And we are so polite, we two! But whenever I see you, I burst apart And scatter the sky with my blazing heart. It spits and sparkles in the stars and balls, Buds into roses – and flares, and falls. Scarlet buttons, and pale green disks, Silver spirals and asterisks, Shoot and tremble in a mist Peppered with mauve and amethyst. I shine in the windows and light up the trees, And all because I hate you, if you please. And when you meet me, you rend asunder And go up in a flaming wonder Of saffron cubes, and crimson moons, And wheels all amaranths and maroons. Golden lozenges and spades Arrows of malachites and jades, Patens of copper, azure sheaves. As you mount, you flash in the glossy leaves. Such fireworks as we make, we two! Because you hate me and I hate you. Poem by Amy Lowell
