It has grown to house one of the most extensive collections of contemporary poetry in the United States. Since 1962, the Poetry Center has sponsored one of the nation’s earliest, longest-running, and most prestigious reading series, the Visiting Poets and Writers Reading Series, which continues to the present day. The Poetry Center also has a long history of community programming including classes and workshops, lectures, contests, youth programming, writers in residence, and poetry workshops in Arizona penitentiaries. Its leadership has included noted authors such as Richard Shelton, Alison Hawthorne Deming, and LaVerne Harrell Clark. University of Arizona Poetry Center Records UAPC.01 Page 1 of 71 Scope and Content Note This collection contains correspondence, administrative records, board meeting minutes, printed materials, audiovisual recordings, and scrapbooks related to the unique history of the Poetry Center and its prominent role in Southern Arizona’s literary arts landscape. Information contained within the records offers a comprehensive look at Southern Arizona’s literary arts activities and communities from 1960 to the present day. As the Poetry Center is still an active organization, the collection will continue to grow. The collection is notable in preserving the original audiovisual recordings of poets and writers reading their work for the Poetry Center’s Visiting Poets and Writers Reading Series. The first recording, of poet Robert Creeley, dates to Dec. 4, 1963. These recordings are being digitized and made freely available online, with permission from the poets and/or their estates, at the Poetry Center’s digital audio video library, voca (http://voca.arizona.edu). Since 2007, all new recordings are born digital, although physical copies are retained in the library’s holdings. The collection also includes A-Z “author files” consisting of records and correspondence pertaining to hundreds of poets and writers who visited the Center. Author files typically contain clippings, photos, financial records, and correspondence related to an author’s visit. Often the correspondence is rich, reflecting the Center’s longstanding tradition of friendship and hospitality to poets. Several files, including Robert Frost’s, contain manuscripts or typescripts of poems. Of note, former U.S. Secretary of the Interior Stewart Lee Udall is represented in the author files with materials including typescripts and manuscripts of Udall’s own poems.

  • American Book Awards 2004
    BEFORE COLUMBUS FOUNDATION PRESENTS THE AMERICAN BOOK AWARDS 2004 America was intended to be a place where freedom from discrimination was the means by which equality was achieved. Today, American culture THE is the most diverse ever on the face of this earth. Recognizing literary excel- lence demands a panoramic perspective. A narrow view strictly to the mainstream ignores all the tributaries that feed it. American literature is AMERICAN not one tradition but all traditions. From those who have been here for thousands of years to the most recent immigrants, we are all contributing to American culture. We are all being translated into a new language. BOOK Everyone should know by now that Columbus did not “discover” America. Rather, we are all still discovering America—and we must continue to do AWARDS so. The Before Columbus Foundation was founded in 1976 as a nonprofit educational and service organization dedicated to the promotion and dissemination of contemporary American multicultural literature. The goals of BCF are to provide recognition and a wider audience for the wealth of cultural and ethnic diversity that constitutes American writing. BCF has always employed the term “multicultural” not as a description of an aspect of American literature, but as a definition of all American litera- ture. BCF believes that the ingredients of America’s so-called “melting pot” are not only distinct, but integral to the unique constitution of American Culture—the whole comprises the parts. In 1978, the Board of Directors of BCF (authors, editors, and publishers representing the multicultural diversity of American Literature) decided that one of its programs should be a book award that would, for the first time, respect and honor excellence in American literature without restric- tion or bias with regard to race, sex, creed, cultural origin, size of press or ad budget, or even genre.

  • Faith, Hope and Service in Denise Chávez's Face of an Angel
    Faith, Hope and Service in Denise Chávez’s Face of an Angel Linda Naranjo-Huebl Calvin College enise Chávez dedicates her book Face of an Angel to “all the women, criadas Dand ayudantes, who have taught me the meaning of the word service.” She navigates a difficult path celebrating service in a tradition—Chicano Catholic cul- ture—that valorizes the complete effacement and martyrdom of women, and also in a secular intellectual culture that views religious beliefs with suspicion. Chávez gives us a hero, Soveida Dosamantes, who struggles to effect change—to stop destructive cycles of privilege—while rejecting a too narrowly defined feminism that might view woman’s service as a dysfunction that must be remedied. The novel traces the protagonist’s progressing struggle to assert a new Chicana identity, but the change comes very slowly, in steps; and Chávez’s structuring of sections after orders of an- gels in the Catholic tradition underscores and complements Soveida’s journey. The second part of the book’s dedication—“for all my sisters likewise who have waited, will wait”—reflects the focus of the narrative on faith and hope, central to the novel. Soveida Dosamantes learns to wait on herself as well as others. Chávez’s book is structured around the orders of angels in the Catholic theological tradition: angels, archangels, principalities, powers, virtues, dominations, thrones, cherubim, and seraphim. In explaining why theologians have thus categorized angels, Pope Gregory I cites their varied service: “But why do we touch upon these choirs of steadfast angels by listing them, if not to describe their ministries in a plain manner? We ought to know that whatever angels are called, their name signifies a service” (qtd.

It never had a sacred poet; it has in me only a lover … This is a land of illusions and thin air. The vision is so cleared at times that the truth itself is deceptive.” John Charles Van Dyke The Desert (1901) “The other Desert - the real Desert - is not for the eyes of the superficial observer, or the fearful soul or the cynic. It is a land, the character of which is hidden except to those who come with friendliness and understanding. To these the Desert offers rare gifts … health-giving sunshine—a sky that is studded with diamonds—a breeze that bears no poison—a landscape of pastel colors such as no artist can duplicate—thorn-covered plants which during countless ages have clung tenaciously to life through heat and drought and wind and the depredations of thirsty animals, and yet each season send forth blossoms of exquisite coloring as a symbol of courage that has triumphed over terrifying obstacles. To those who come to the Desert with friendliness, it gives friendship; to those who come with courage, it gives new strength of character. Those seeking relaxation find release from the world of man-made troubles. For those seeking beauty, the Desert offers nature’s rarest artistry.
