  • Sharon Olds : the Poetry Foundation 12/5/12 11:55 AM
    Sharon Olds : The Poetry Foundation 12/5/12 11:55 AM Home > Poems & Poets > Sharon Olds Sharon Olds b. 1942 Sharon Olds is one of contemporary poetry’s leading voices. Winner of several prestigious awards, including the National Book Critics Circle Award, Olds is known for writing intensely personal, emotionally scathing poetry which graphically depicts family life as well as global political events. “Sharon Olds is David Bartolomi enormously self-aware,” wrote David Leavitt in the Voice Literary Supplement. “Her poetry is remarkable for its candor, its eroticism, and its power to move.” Olds’s candor has led to both high praise and condemnation. Her work is often built out of intimate details concerning her children, her fraught relationship with her parents and, most controversially, her sex life. Critic Helen Vendler publically disparaged Olds’s work as self-indulgent, sensationalist and even pornographic. However, Olds has just as many supporters who praise her poetry for its sensitive portrayal of emotional states, as well as its bold depiction of “unpoetic” life events. Discussing Olds in Poetry, Lisel Mueller noted: “By far the greater number of her poems are believable and touching, and their intensity does not interfere with craftsmanship. Listening to Olds, we hear a proud, urgent, human voice.” And the poet Billy Collins has called her “a poet of sex and the psyche,” adding that “Sharon Olds is infamous for her subject matter alone…but her closer readers know her as a poet of constant linguistic surprise.” Olds’s poetry is known for its accessible and direct free verse style.

  • The Chad Walsh Poetry Prize Was Established in 1993 by Alison Walsh Sackett and Her Husband Paul in Honor of Ms
    The Chad Walsh Poetry Prize was established in 1993 by Alison Walsh Sackett and her husband Paul in honor of Ms. Sackett's father, Chad Walsh (1914-1991), a co-founder in 1950 of the Beloit Poetry Journal. An author and scholar, Walsh wrote several books on literary history, notably on C.S. Lewis, and published six volumes of poetry, including The End of Nature and Hang Me Up My Begging Bowl. He was professor and writer-in-residence at Beloit College in Wisconsin for thirty-two years, serving for many of those as chair of the English Department. He also taught as a Fulbright lecturer in Finland and Italy. Editors’ Note When Alison Walsh Sackett, daughter of BPJ founding editor Chad Walsh, approached editor Marion Stocking in 1993 with an offer to fund an annual prize for a single outstanding poem from among all the poems published by the journal within the calendar year, Marion and the other members of the editorial board were initially somewhat skeptical. How were we to weigh the merits of a pitch-perfect lyric against those of a broad-ranging meditation or a searing narrative? Our impulses were inclusive and egalitarian; we saw all the poets we published as part of the BPJ family and their poems as in conversation with each other. Selecting a single poem for recognition, we objected, would put the poems we published implicitly in competition with each other. Might we at least divide the prize (which as proposed would carry the single largest cash award given for a single poem by any literary magazine) among several outstanding poets, or at least two? Alison, however, was insistent and, it turned out, wise.

  • 1 Breaking Free of Tradition Poetic Tradition in America Followed That In
    1 Breaking Free of Tradition EARLY AMERICAN POETRY Poetic tradition in America followed that in Britain for nearly 200 years. The Puritan poets like Anne Bradstreet and Edward Taylor likened their work to the British metaphysical poets, and followed in the footsteps of Milton, Spenser and Donne in their poems. Their poetry was highly didactic, mostly for use in teaching Puritan ethics. The first published American poet Bradstreet broke from it in some way, merely because she was female, and it was considered that she should devote herself to home and family. In The Prologue (1650), Bradstreet writes “I am obnoxious to each carping tongue/ Who says my hand a needle better fits,/ [than] A poet’s pen.…” Bradstreet’s instincts were to love that world more than the promised world of Puritan theology. Thus, her poetry is energized by the struggle to overcome the love for the world of nature (Miller and Wendell para. 10). They also noted that the colonial poets mostly encircled their work with privacy, like poetic letters, so the writing was more private. Taylor’s work was very meditative. In God's Determinations Touching His Elect, written in approximately 1680, one of Taylor’s most important works, he celebrated God's power in the triumph of good over evil in the human soul (Miller and Wendell para. 11). We must remember that the colonists were considered to be lower class for more than 200 years by the British and many critics, thought American literature was nonexistent. However, American poets, such as Ebenezer Cook and Richard Lewis, were known to poke back at the British snobbery, as in the poem The Sot-Weed Factor (1708).

  • Getting Into Poetry
    Middletown Thrall Library Reference Department Presents Getting into… If you’re an avid reader of poetry, you need no further encouragement: you know a few carefully selected words can express extraordinary and beautiful ideas. You are also likely to know that many of our most important, influential, and imaginative writings – from the earliest times through the present – are, if not poems, rather poetic. If, on the other hand, you tend to avoid poetry, you might not realize what you are missing. Perhaps your first encounters with poetry were frustrating, a struggle to determine what a poem was saying or might have meant. Whatever your reasons for staying away, we encourage you to discover – or rediscover – the promise, profundity, and powers of poetry. Why? There are many good reasons to read poetry. There is the sheer enjoyment of seeing words (and hearing them as you read a poem aloud) come together to create intriguing impressions, fascinating descriptions, sounds, rhythms – music! Poetry can be very entertaining as well! Poetry sparks imagination, dares you to see things in new light, and helps to reveal truths about ourselves and our world. One poem can mean many things to different persons: interpretations can make poems come alive, affect and inspire us in unexpected ways. Some Poetry Concepts Worth Learning… Formal Verse – Poems adhering to certain rhythms, rhymes, and rules (such as a Sonnet – see below). Free Verse – Poems that tend to follow no particular set of rules or rhymes. Words can be arranged any number of ways. Haiku – These very short meditative poems are usually about nature, run three lines long, and can speak volumes! Metaphor – Something or someone equated with something else, as in “Juliet is the sun” or “All the world’s a stage.” Simile – When something or someone is likened to something else, as in “My love is like a red, red rose.” Sonnet – A classic form of poetry, usually 14 lines long, with lines that rhyme in a certain pattern (a rhyme scheme).
