About Edna St. Vincent Millay E dna St. Vincent Millay (1892-1950) was born in Rockland, Maine. Her parents, Cora Lounella, a nurse, and Henry Tolman Millay, a schoolteacher, divorced when she was about eight; "Vincent" stayed with her mother. In 1917 she graduated from Vassar, published Renascence and Other Poems (the title piece had won her recognition in 1912), and took the lead in her own play The Princess Marries the Page Aria da Capo and Two Slatterns and a King . Meanwhile she earned her living with pseudonymous magazine sketches [published under the name Nancy Boyd and] collected in Distressing Dialogues in 1924. With the frank and cynical love poetry of A Few Figs From Thistles in 1920 [containing "First Fig," one of Millay’s most well known and widely quoted poems], and Second April in 1921, Edna St. Vincent Millay was hailed as the voice of her generation, embodiment of the New Woman. After two years in Europe as a correspondent for Vanity Fair , she married Eugene Jan Boissevain in 1923; [Millay had earlier] devoted a sonnet to the memory of his first wife, her suffragist idol Inez Milholland. [In 1923 she also] became the first woman to receive a Pulitzer Prize for poetry, for Ballad of the Harp Weaver . At the height of her popularity she joined a writer’s crusade to stay the execution of Sacco and Vanzetti in 1927; she commemorated their end in five poems, "Justice Denied in Massachusetts", "Hangman’s Oak", "The Anguish", "To Those Without Pity", and "Wine from These Grapes" (collected in

Edna St. Vincent Millay (1892-1950) Contributing Editor: John J. Patton Classroom Issues and Strategies Students have few problems reading Millay's poetry because the poet is forthright in expressing her emotions, ideas, and experiences. Obviously such references as those to Euclid and Endymion require explanation. Occasionally the diction needs some explication because of Millay's fondness for archaic and Latinate words. Not much more is required than the teacher's ability to clarify some allusions and an occasional word or phrase. Any teacher of modern American literature should also have no problems with the references to city life and to issues of the times, which are generously sprinkled throughout Millay's work. As for accessibility, some benefit will come from placing Millay in the context of the poetry of the 1920s and 1930s as one of those like, for instance, Robert Frost , Archibald MacLeish, and Edward Arlington Robinson , who carried forward the more traditional verse form and techniques in the face of the experimentalism of T. S. Eliot

The title work was a tribute to her selfless and encouraging mother. Millay's unconventional life in Greenwich Village in the 1920s embodied the spirit of the New Woman - sexual freedom, independence, and political activism.

(from 'Sonnet XLVII', in Fatal Interview Edna St. Vincent Millay was born in Rockland, Maine, as the daughter of Henry Tolman Millay, a school principal, and Cora Lounella (Buzzelle) Millay. (Millay's middle name derived from the French priest St. Vincent de Paul) Her father had a weakness for poker playing, and although he deserted his family, Millay kept contact with him. After divorce in 1900 Cora Millay moved with her three daughters, Edna, Norma, and Kathleen, to Camden, into a small house in the poorest part of the town. To support her family she worked as a district nurse and was often away on assignment. Trained to be a singer, she coached town orchestras and wrote out scores for their members. She also encouraged her daughters in their musical and poetic ambitions, and taught Edna to write poetry at the age of five.
