Joan, I enjoyed your essay in the Boston Comment, although I almost totally disagree with your premises. Not surprising, since I'm the editor that selected "Prison Guards Silhouetted Against the Sky" and "Ha" for publication in Poetry International. I think you miss the point of a great deal of twentieth century poetry which is precisely to rid itself of "Poetic" pretense and diction (with a capital "p") and write more precisely about the truths closest to our bones. But I'm sure you in turn think I miss the point of what poetry actually is. These are two different sensibilities that I hope can exist side by side in the world, but your essay doesn't seem to think so. I don't think there are some abstract qualities that define a poem, but rather a sense of exactness about the emotional truth conveyed in it. In this sense, poetry has always been hard to define (like pornography, we know it when we see it). Marianne Moore used to say she could recognize a poem because the hairs on the back of her neck stood up when she read one. This definition is not likely to please readers who want a list of qualities that define poetry. Each generation defines it anew in its own language and by its own practice. At least that's how I view it. I think "The Best Poems of 1999" is the best of the "Best" collections so farand I've read all of themprecisely because of Bly's ability to recognize poetry beyond simply meter and poetic conventions. I also think his introduction is a little gem.

(See map...ref no. 16) In 1918 Moore and her mother moved from Pennsylvania to New York - where Marianne took up work as a library assistant in the Public Library. Along with poets such as Ezra Pound and William Carlos Williams she was a member of the imagist movement. In common with the imagist philosophy, she wrote poetry featuring clear but highly condensed language. She soon began to contribute poems to the influential Dial magazine - and later became its editor from 1925-29. Moore relied on syllable counting rather than on traditional meter forms and also laid out her poems in elaborate forms. The formal construction of her poetry is not always immediately apparent on first reading. Much of her work was inspired by her love of animals and nature e.g. her accomplished poem

William Carlos Williams Scholars have marveled at the paradoxes of Marianne Moorehow her verse can show such propriety amidst such caprice, or use such artifice to celebrate the natural, or seem so modern while being unabashedly old-fashioned. In fact, Moore's "wild decorum" is an accurate reflection of her character and values, exalting a gusto (as she said) that gets things done without running roughshod, a propriety that refuses to wink, distort, or disdain. But for all this down-to-earth practicality, her long, artfully poised sentences and strict but arbitrarily syllabic stanza forms also force us to a self-conscious awareness of the language itself.

Marianne Moore criticism A criticism of Marianne Moore and her unconventional method of creating a poem that compares the grace and imagery of baseball to the grace and imagery of poetry. Marianne Moore uses an unconventional method to create a poem that compares the grace and imagery of baseball to the grace and imagery of poetry. Most poets rarely use any kind of dialogue in their poems. Moore uses quoted dialogue that may actually be quoted from an individual, non-fiction; quoted dialogue that is obviously an artistic recreation of what Moore thinks a character would have said in a given situation, fiction; and dialogue without quotation marks. In “Baseball and Writing,” Moore uses dialogue saturated with simile and metaphor to enhance the imagery and realism of the poem. Except for the first, each stanza of Moore’s poem includes quoted dialogue; each also includes figurative language such as metaphor and simile to bring the reader into the ballpark. The only part of the first stanza that stands out, the way the dialogue stands out in the other stanzas, is the italicized metaphor “owl” in “Owlman.” It is as if the writer adds her own dialogue as description to the narrative. The “Owlman watching from the press box?” conjures images of Mel Allen and the members of the New York sporting press staring through binoculars from below the Yankee Stadium fa§ade. Moore invites the reader to share her perspective, using a simile to compare baseball to writing, “Writing is exciting / and baseball is like writing.”

American Poetry Marianne Moore’s ‘Poetry’ Marianne Moore’s ‘Poetry’ Poets on Poetry Linda Sue Grimes May 11, 2007 "I, too, dislike it": thus begins a poem about poetry that results in a clear portrayal of what poetry should be, and why it is important. Liking it is not necessary. Poetry The poem displays an unusual arrangement on the page: it does not look like a poem, yet is also does not resemble prose. Each verse paragraph has only two riming lines; lines six and seven rime in all paragraphs except for paragraph three, which has seven only lines and no rime, while the other four each have eight lines with the one set of rimes. Second Verse Paragraph: Because the things in poetry are useful Once again, the speaker elides the two paragraphs, this time three with four. The form of this poem has to look very different from any other poem. Therefore, the poet has placed the lines unevenly.

Home Famous Bio Poems ... Contact The Selected Letters of Marianne Moore Edited by Bonnie Costello, Celeste Goodridge and Cristanne Miller, Alfred A. Knopf, 1997. It is hard to overestimate the impact of Marianne Moore’s letters. They are at least as important as Moore’s poems. This in no way denigrates the poems, it only serves to communicate the immense pleasure and discovery that comes of this personal and professional correspondence covering the years 1905 – 1969. The Moderns come to life here. The poets’ relationships, one to another, become clearer. And the voice behind Moore’s poems is explained: Moore’s curiosity, playfulness, integrity and intelligence are present in every letter, along with a generosity of spirit, faith, and a personal warmth that rides between the lines of her poems, and might be missed without this glimpse into her personal life. Marianne Moore, by dint of her unique poetic voice, scrupulous standards, and her five years as editor of the literary magazine The Dial Ideas of Order . Insecurity seems impossible to believe of Stevens, but Moore responded in a bolstering, respectful manner. And while her personal relationship with T.S. Eliot was never more than the cordial, epistolary kind (they met a few times, but in a manner that did not satisfy Moore), Eliot observed in 1959 that, “One of the books which obviously must in the fullness of time be published…will be the Letters of Marianne Moore.” These letters put flesh and bones on the Modernist movement. They reveal the insecurities, admiration, and sometimes the competitive sparks that connected this school of brilliant writers, and they establish Marianne Moore as an important figure in the movement.

Home Ordering Search/Browse Contact ... HUP Marianne Moore Questions of Authority Cristanne Miller Not confessional or autobiographical, not openly political or gender-conscious: all that Marianne Moore's poetry is not has masked what it actually is. Cristanne Miller's aim is to lift this mask and reveal the radically oppositional, aesthetic, and political nature of the poet's work. A new Moore emerges from Miller's persuasive bookone whose political engagement and artistic experiments, though not cut to the fashion of her time, point the way to an ambitious new poetic. Miller locates Moore within the historical, literary, and family environments that shaped her life and work, particularly her sense and deployment of poetic authority. She shows how feminist notions of gender prevalent during Moore's youth are reflected in her early poetry, and tracks a shift in later poems when Moore becomes more openly didactic, more personal, and more willing to experiment with language typically regarded as feminine. Distinguishing the lack of explicit focus on gender from a lack of gender-consciousness, Miller identifies Moore as distinctly feminist in her own conception of her work, and as significantly expanding the possibilities for indirect political discourse in the lyric poem. Miller's readings also reveal Moore's frequent and pointed critiques of culturally determined power relationships, those involving race and nationality as well as gender. Making new use of unpublished correspondence and employing close interpretive readings of important poems, Miller revises and expands our understanding of Marianne Moore. And her work links Moorein her radically innovative reactions to dominant constructions of authoritywith a surprisingly wide range of late twentieth-century women poets.
