American Literature Web Resources: Edna St. Vincent Millay Edna St. Vincent Millay (1892-1950) compiled by Elizabeth Kreydich, Millikin University Edna St. Vincent Millay was characterized as one of the greatest (women) lyricists of the Twentieth Century. She is known as one of the greatest sonnet writers of all time, with her soft style and striking connotations. Millay has been described as a tease and a tomboy. Her mother urged her and her two younger sisters, Norma and Kathleen to be independent and ambitious. It is rumored that her mother taught her to write verse by the age four, and her first poem that was published she wrote at fourteen. She studied as a child to become a concert pianist, and became successful with music and literature composition, and was a playwright. Millay was a flamboyant twenties feminist, who didn't care to follow the rules set by a society of men, but rather create her own. She was described as "only five feet tall, with red hair, changeable green eyes, and a melodious voice." It was also said that she had an, "intoxicating affect on people." (Edmund Wilson) Chronology 1892-Edna St. Vincent Millay was born to Henry Tolman Millay and Cora Lounella (Buzelle) Millay, in Rockland, Maine on February 22nd.

February 22 ~  Gives a Lovely Light Collected Sonnets "My c a n d l e burns at bo t h ends; It will not last the night; But a h my foes, and o h, my friends It gives a l o v e l y light!" ~ Edna St. Vincent Millay Born on this day in Rockland, Maine, romantic poet Edna St. Vincent Millay (1892-1950) passionately wrote of love and loss, freedom and fidelity. A gifted musician, her writing reflected her innate sense of harmony and rhythm. Childhood is the kingdom where Nobody dies," she said. "Nobody that matters, that is." To please her strong-minded mother , 20 year old Edna entered her 214-line poem Renascence into a contest and won fourth place and publication. The exposure brough her critical recognition and a scholarship to Vassar. "God, I can push the grass apart," she wrote. "And lay my finger on thy heart A beautiful , pioneering feminist of the Roaring Twenties and Jazz Age , she moved to Greenwich Village and with the pseudonym Nancy Boyd, wrote satirical articles for Vanity Fair. Following the publication of her most popular collection, A Few Figs from Thistles , she became the first woman to receive the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry in 1923.

Content provided in partnership with print share link Edna St. Vincent Millay's gendered language and form: "Sonnets from an Ungrafted Tree." Style Spring, 1995 by Irene R. Fairley Although part of the Pulitzer-Prize-winning Harp-Weaver (1924),(1) Edna St. Vincent Millay's "Sonnets from an Ungrafted Tree" was regarded by many critics as inferior and still tends to receive less attention than Millay's other sonnet sequences. However, I believe it is the one that is thematically most imaginative and most inventive within the genre. As they narrate a woman's inner struggle, these sonnets merge women's speech in its various forms, from gossip to story telling to diary, and as such represent an important development. To achieve her dramatic purpose, Millay uses a range of sonnet structures, but she also experiments with form. Millay's sonnets have been identified as "reflective in theme" (Sterner 112). I will argue that here she develops sonnets that are reflective in form in order to reveal the process of a woman's emerging self-knowledge.

There'll be in his pockets Things he used to put there, Keys and pennies Covered with tobacco; Dan shall have the pennies To save in his bank; Anne shall have the keys To make a pretty noise with.

59. Dirge Without Music A Poem From The Net I Am Not Resigned To The Quietly they go, the intelligent, the witty, the brave. I know. But I do not approve. And I am not resigned. edna st. vincent millay. http://www2.hawaii.edu/~rpeterso/poem.htm

Dirge Without Music I am not resigned to the shutting away of loving hearts in the hard ground. So it is, and so it will be, for so it has been, time out of mind: Into the darkness they go, the wise and the lovely. Crowned With lilies and with laurel they go; but I am not resigned. Lovers and thinkers, into the earth with you. Be one with the dull, the indiscriminate dust. A fragment of what you felt, of what you knew, A formula, a phrase remains, but the best is lost. The answers quick and keen, the honest look, the laughter, the love, They are gone. They are gone to feed the roses. Elegant and curled Is the blossom. Fragrant is the blossom. I know. But I do not approve. More precious was the light in your eyes than all the roses in the world. Down, down, down into the darkness of the grave Gently they go, the beautiful, the tender, the kind; Quietly they go, the intelligent, the witty, the brave. I know. But I do not approve. And I am not resigned. EDNA ST. VINCENT MILLAY
