Published with open access at www.questjournal.org ABSTRACT: Gary Snyder, born in 1930, is one of the most significant American environmentalist-poets in the second half of the twentieth century. The present article deals with the ecological issues in the poetic works of Gary Snyder. It tries to explore the ecological implications in selected poems from three of Snyder’s major works of poetry, Riprap and Cold Mountain Poems (1959), Turtle Island (1974) and Mountains and Rivers without End (1996). The article presents an ecological reading of the selected poems which draws the attention of people to the ecological matters of the world. People‟s awareness of the ecological aspect of the universe may go back more than five centuries, specifically to the rise of western civilization in the seventeenth century. Technological inventions and scientific discoveries were all directed towards achieving human control over the natural environment. It is the German scientist Ernst Haeckel who first coined the term "ecology" ("Ökologie") in 1866.Ecology deals with organisms and their environment. It consists of all living beings, the natural surroundings in which they live, and their relationship to it. Haeckel defined it as “the study of all environmental conditions of existence” (Worster, 1977, p.

  • 251 Poetry Warrior: Robert Creeley in His Letters
    ROBERT ARCHAMBEAU POETRY WARRIOR: ROBERT CREELEY IN HIS LETTERS Creeley, Robert. The Selected Letters of Robert Creeley, ed. Rod Smith, Peter Baker, and Kaplan Harris. Berkeley: University of California Press, 2014. Robert Archambeau “The book,” wrote Robert Creeley to Rod Smith, who was then hard at work on the volume in question, Creeley’s Selected Letters, “will certainly ‘tell a story.’” Now that the text of that book has emerged from Smith’s laptop and rests between hard covers, it’s a good time to ask just what story those letters tell. Certainly it isn’t a personal one. Creeley was a New Englander, through and through, and of the silent generation to boot. Yankee reticence blankets the letters too thickly for us to feel much of the texture of Creeley’s quotidian life, beyond whether he feels (to use his favored idiom) he’s “mak- ing it” through the times or not. Instead, the letters, taken together, tell an intensely literary story—and, as the plot develops, an institutional, academic one. Call this story “From the Outside In,” maybe. Or, better, treat it as one of the many Rashomon-like eyewitness accounts of that contentious epic that goes by the title The Poetry Wars. If, like me, you entered the little world of American poetry in the 1990s, you found the Cold War that was ending in the realm of politics to be in full effect in poetry. What had begun as a brushfire conflict between rival journals and anthologies in the fifties and early sixties had settled into an institutionalized rivalry, with an Iron Curtain drawn between the mutu- ally suspicious empires of Iowa City and Buffalo.

  • “Too Philosophical for a Poet”: a Conversation with Charles Bernstein
    b2 Interview “Too Philosophical for a Poet”: A Conversation with Charles Bernstein Andrew David King ADK: I wanted to start by asking about the phenomenon of the book—as object and as commodity. In 2010, you spoke with Thom Donovan about the process and rationale behind putting together your selected poems, All the Whiskey in Heaven. Certain types of work (nonpoems; this is, of course, a tricky distinction) were excluded: the essays and libretti, for instance, whose presentations alongside poems in My Way unsettle more mainstream, big- publishing- house attitudes toward the compilation of written work. You said that the final product “has a very strong connection from beginning to end,” but that “it’s not in the way that the poems look, or the tone, or the style”: a connection, instead, in the “potentiating recombinations among parts,” which, at the same time, were linearly fused via your decision to exclude book titles from the text proper (making “a kind of text opera”—and there’s your libretto!) from the chronological selections, or, as the case may be, excerpts (Donovan 2010: n.p.).

"Three Books about Books." Oyster Boy Review 14 (Winter 2001): 52. Jerome Rothenberg's always original and thought-provoking work within language and poetics has established ethnopoetics as a discipline encouraging expanded definitions of cultural artifacts. In these two books, he and his co-editors explore the meaning of "the book," envisioning a primal book written "out there" from which all manifestations of language spring. Proposing a book as a metaphor for imagining opens its interpretation to something more than a vessel for words; it becomes a communal theater of experience and instrument for action, facilitating invention and belief, communication and ritual, revealing itself as a spiritual conduit for human becoming.
