Z by birthday from the calendar Credits and feedback TimeSearch for Books and Writers by Bamber Gascoigne Marianne (Craig) Moore (1887-1972) Pulitzer Prize-winning American poet, highly esteemed by her fellow colleagues. Moore's often-quoted advice in 'Poetry' was that poets should present for inspection "imaginary gardens with real toads in them". Characteristic for her works is cryptic zigzag logic, eccentric rhythms, and ironic wit. Her best-known poems feature animals and are written in precise, clear language. Moore was a friend to many of the greatest artists and writers of the 20th century, such as T.S. Eliot, Ezra Pound, Elizabeth Bishop, and E.E. Cummings. I, too, dislike it: there are things that are important beyond all this fiddle. Reading it, however, with a perfect contempt for it, one discovers in it after all, a place for the genuine. (from 'Poetry', 1921) Marianne Moore was born near St. Louis, Missouri, as the daughter of John Milton Moore, an engineer-inventor. Moore was brought up with her brother in the home of her grandfather, the Reverend John R. Warner, the pastor of Kirkwood Presbyterian Church. John Milton suffered a mental breakdown before her daughter's birth and was committed to a psychiatric hospital; she never met him. In 1896 the family moved to Carlisle, Pennsylvania, where Moore's mother, Mary Warner, worked as a teacher at the Metzger Institute, a private girls's school. Moore was not an outstanding student at Bryn Mawr College in Pennsylvania, but she was popular, active in the social life, and contributed to the student literary magazine, the

After graduation she learned shorthand and typewriting at Carlisle Commercial College and in 1911 she is a teacher at the United States Indian School in Carlisle. In 1915 she has her first publication, "TO THE SOUL OF PROGRESS" in THE EGOIST; and five poems in Harriet Monroes POETRY. It is now that Marianne begins to win the reputation as one of the "new" poets. In 1921 she became an assistant at the NY Public Library, and her first book POEMS, appeared in London where it was published without her knowledge by two of her friends, Hilda Doolittle and Robert McAlmon. It was followed by MARRIAGE (1923) and OBSERVATIONS (1924), which was published in the US and won the Dial award.

7. W.C. Williams And Marianne Moore Marianne Moore s interest in China stemmed in part from her friendship with a Presbyterian missionary family and her visits to New York galleries. http://www.library.yale.edu/beinecke/orient/mod10.htm

WILLIAM CARLOS WILLIAMS Like his colleagues H.D., Moore, and Pound, Williams doubtless saw Lawrence Binyon's exhibition of Chinese art at the British Museum, 1910-12, and recognized the importance of his close friend Pound's Cathay in 1915 when he judged "the Chinese things" to be "perhaps a few of the greatest poems ever written." Williams's repeated references in his early work to "Yang Guifei," the courtesan-heroine of Po Cheu-i's 806 A.D. narrative poem Changhenge had their source in Herbert A. Giles's 1901 translation.

MARIANNE MOORE Marianne Moore's interest in China stemmed in part from her friendship with a Presbyterian missionary family and her visits to New York galleries.

She was a devoted baseball fan and was invited to throw out the first ball at the start of the 1968 season at Yankee Stadium. In 1935, T. S. Eliot wrote that her poems are "part of the body of durable poetry written in our time, in which an original sensibility and an alert intelligence and deep feeling have been engaged in maintaining the life of the English language." Many of Moore's poems have been compared to the metaphysical satires of John Donne, in which the initial idea has been extended by metaphors to new dimensions, expressed in pure language.

Marianne Moore (1887-1972) Contributing Editor: Bernard F. Engel Classroom Issues and Strategies The general student block against poetry often causes difficulties. With Moore, it is useful to observe that she seeks accuracy of statement, that the alleged difficulty of her work does not arise from abstruse symbolism or reference to obscure autobiographical matters, but from precision: seeking exact presentation, she does not fall back on expected phrasings. The attentive who will slow down and read thoughtfully can understand and enjoy. Advise students to read through once quickly to get perspective. Then they should read slowly, and aloud. I also advise them that after this first reading they should let the poem sit two or three days, then repeat the process. In class, I read through short poems a few lines at a time, pausing to ask questions; I also ask students to read passages aloud. With undergraduates, I prefer not to spend hours on any one poem. It is better that they read carefully, but without the extended analysis that is appropriate in some graduate classes. Students need help with the rhetoric and syntax; they need to be shown how to read with care. They rarely raise the abstruse questions of aesthetics or moral philosophy that fascinate the literary critic. Advanced students, however, may be asked to compare Moore's effort to achieve precision with the argument of some deconstructionists and post-modernists that is not possible for verbal art to reach that goal.
