She exists for one purpose: to bear and nourish the son." Adrienne Rich (b. 1929), U.S. poet. Of Woman Born, ch. 8 (1976). "My children cause me the most exquisite suffering of which I have any experience. It is the suffering of ambivalence: the murderous alternation between bitter resentment and raw-edged nerves, and blissful gratification and tenderness. Sometimes I seem to myself, in my feelings toward these tiny guiltless beings, a monster of selfishness and intolerance." Adrienne Rich (b. 1929), U.S. poet. Of Woman Born, ch. 1 (1976).

Adrienne Rich (b. 1929) Contributing Editor: Wendy Marin Classroom Issues and Strategies Rich's poetry is extremely accessible and readable. However, there are a few allusions that cannot be understood and, from time to time, there will be references to events or literary works that will not be immediately recognized by students. This material or these references are glossed in the text so the student can understand the historical or literary context. Other problems occur when there is fundamental hostility to the poet over feminism. The instructor will have to explain that feminism simply means a belief in the social, political, and economic equality of women and men. Explain, also, that Rich is not a man-hater or in any way unwilling to consider men as human beings. Rather, her priority is to establish the fundamental concerns of her women readers. Major Themes, Historical Perspectives, and Personal Issues It is important to read these poems out loud, to understand that Rich is simultaneously a political, polemical, and lyric poet. It is important also to establish for the poems of the '60s, the Vietnam War protests as background as well as the feminist movement of the '60s and '70s. It is also important to emphasize that in many respects the '60s and '70s were reaction to the confinement of the '50s and the feminine mystique of that period. In addition, stress that the political background of the poems by Adrienne Rich connects the personal and the political.

Adrienne Rich Activities This link leads to artifacts, teaching tips and discussion questions for this author. Born in Baltimore, Adrienne Rich describes her mother and grandmother as "frustrated artists," whose talents were denied expression by culture and circumstance. Perhaps their example, along with her father's encouragement, sparked her desire to become a writer at a time when women were still trying to prove themselves in a male-dominated arena. After graduating from Radcliffe in 1951, Rich was recognized for her poetry in the same year by W. H. Auden, who selected her first book, A Change of World free verse that she saw as less patriarchal and more in tune with her true voice.

Adrienne Rich (1929- ) Born on May 16, 1929, in Baltimore, Maryland, Adrienne Rich was brought up in a household she describes as "white and middle-class . . . full of books, with a father who encouraged me to write." She was schooled at home by her mother, a composer and pianist, until the fourth grade. In 1951, Rich graduated Phi Beta Kappa from Radcliffe College. That same year, she published “A Change of World”, her first book of poetry, which the poet W. H. Auden selected for the Yale Younger Poets Award.

T-Z Subjects: A-B C-E F-L M-Z Rich, Adrienne (b. 1929) page: Adrienne Rich, who has aestheticized politics and politicized aesthetics, is America's most widely read lesbian poet. Rich's unflinching moral vision, constant and courageous interrogations of her selves, and of her own and other writers' philosophical positions and artistic responsibilities, make her, as poet and critic Alicia Ostriker has observed, "a poet of ideas" who "cannot accept either a public or private life not motivated by the will to change oneself, to change others, to change the world," and who "asks us," therefore, "to think that we need to give birth to ourselves." Sponsor Message. In a national poetry industry where creative writing programs pledge allegiance to honing technique and to the commonplace that form is content, Rich, a master of craft and form, unfashionably refuses to identify poetry with skillful design and insists that it must be forceful enough to change lives. Indeed, David Kalstone pronounced Rich's The Will to Change (1971) "an extraordinary book of poems and something else as well."

One Poem By Adrienne Rich By Robert Hass May 16, 1999 I I don't completely understand the poem that follows. I get the outline of it. Someone is walking up a hillside. It's probably fall, there's ground mist and the sun's tongue is "licking leaf upon leaf into stricken fluid." And the speaker comes across what she describes as a "shattered head," a skull, perhaps, such as one finds in the woods, a deer or a racoon, but the description suggests a human head, imagined as the place that spring is going to come from: "tendrils soaked into matted compost." The lines that particularly moved me were the first three lines of the following stanza: You can walk by such a place, the earth is made of them where the stretched tissue of a field or woods is humid with beloved matter. The stanza continues in this way: the soothseekers have withdrawn you feel no ghost, only a sporic chorus when that place utters its worn sigh let us have peace I can think of poets who would end there, but Rich is not a poet to reconcile us, or herself, with the idea of death and regeneration. That is the quality of her mind for which I felt, this week, particularly grateful. In the poem the unappeased skull answers back. Here is the whole poem: Shattered Head A life hauls itself uphill through hoar-mist steaming the sun's tongue licking leaf upon leaf into stricken liquid When? When? cry the soothseekers

Speaking as they can across barriers actual and figurative, translated into our American tongue, these voices in confinement implicitly call us to our principles and to our humanity. They deserve, above all, not admiration or belief or sympathy—but attention. Attention to them is urgent for us.”—Robert Pinsky “Poems from Guant¡namo brings to light figures of concrete, individual humanity, against the fabric of cruelty woven by the ‘war on terror.’ The poems and poets’ biographies reveal one dimension of this officially obscured narrative, from the perspective of the sufferers; the legal and literary essays provide the context which has produced—under atrocious circumstances—a poetics of human dignity.”—Adrienne Rich Since 2002, at least 775 men have been held in the U.S. detention center at Guant¡namo Bay, Cuba. According to Department of Defense data, fewer than half of them are accused of committing any hostile act against the United States or its allies. In hundreds of cases, even the circumstances of their initial detainment are questionable.

Adrienne Rich Recipient of the 2006 Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters presented at the 2006 National Book Awards Ceremony and Dinner November 15, 2006 New York Marriott Marquis, Times Square, New York, New York Transcript of Ms. Rich's Acceptance Speech Fran Lebowitz: To present this year's medal for distinguished contribution to American letters is Mark Doty. Mark Doty is the author of seven books of poetry and three memoirs, including My Alexandria , a memoir, which won the PEN/Martha Albrand award for First Nonfiction, and has received fellowships from the Guggenheim, Ingram Merrill, Rockefeller, Whiting, and Lila Wallace Reader's Digest Foundation, as well as from the National Endowment for the Arts. It gives me great pleasure to welcome Mark Doty, 8:13. Mark Doty: I am now so nervous about my timing. Recently, I listened to a prominent literary critic speaking to a group of young poets, many of them my students in a graduate writing program. He told them that if they didn't like the way things were being run in this country, the thing for them to do was to devote some time each week to organizing voters and advocating social change but to be sure to keep their political concerns out of their work. As it would do, and I quote, terrible damage to their poetry as it did to the poets of the 1970's, end quote.
