Focusing on the institutions and practices that mediate this exchange, I show how American and French poets take up, challenge or respond to shifts in the poetic field tied to new cross-cultural networks of circulation. In so doing, I also demonstrate how poets imagine and realize a diverse set of competing publics. This work is divided into three chapters. After analyzing in my introduction the web of poets and institutions that have enabled and sustained this exchange, I show in my first chapter how collaborations between writers and translators have greatly impacted recent poetry in a case study of two American works: Andrew Zawack’s Georgia (2009) and Bill Luoma’s My Trip to New York City (1994).

Contributors James Arnold’S Work on Aimé Césaire Spans Four Decades
contributors James Arnold’s work on Aimé Césaire spans four decades. In 1981 he published a book on Césaire’s poetry at Harvard University Press. In the mid-1980s he established the CARAFBooks collection (CARibbean and AFrican Literature translated from French) at the University of Virginia Press. Arnold commissioned Clayton Eshleman and Annette Smith to translate Césaire’s Lyric and Dramatic Poetry, 1946-1982 for the CARAF series (1990). He was the editor-in- chief of Césaire’s complete literary works in French, completed in the poet’s centennial year (2013) for CNRS-Éditions. Since the 1980s Arnold has emerged as a major figure in comparative Caribbean literary studies. He was editor-in- chief of the three-volume History of Literature in the Caribbean, published under the sponsorship of the International Comparative Literature Association between 1994 and 2001. During the same period he founded, at the University Press of Virginia, the cross-cultural book series New World Studies. James Arnold is writing a new book in French on Aimé Césaire’s poetry and poetics that will draw on major discoveries made by his research team for their Paris edition as well as the refinements resulting from his collaboration with Clayton Eshleman. Eugénio de Andrade (1923-2005) was, after Fernando Pessoa, the best known Portuguese poet of the 20th century. He won all of Portugal’s literary awards, as well as the prestigious Prix Jean Malrieu from France. His work has appeared in well over twenty languages, including French, Spanish, Italian, Russian, Hungarian, Polish, Norwegian, Greek, Japanese and Chinese. In 1988 he made a reading tour of the United States with his translator, Alexis Levitin.

Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-76695-1 - The Cambridge Companion to American Poetry since 1945 Edited by Jennifer Ashton Frontmatter More information The Cambridge Companion to American Poetry since 1945 The extent to which American poetry reinvented itself after World War II is a testament to the changing social, political, and economic landscape of twentieth- century American life. Registering an important shift in the way scholars contextualize modern and contemporary American literature, this Companion explores how American poetry has documented and, at times, helped propel the literary and cultural revolutions of the past sixty-five years. Offering authoritative and accessible essays from fourteen distinguished scholars, the Companion sheds new light on the Beat, Black Arts, and other movements while examining institutions that govern poetic practice in the United States today. The text also introduces seminal figures like Sylvia Plath, John Ashbery, and Gwendolyn Brooks while situating them alongside phenomena such as the “academic poet” and popular forms such as spoken word and rap, revealing the breadth of their shared history. Students, scholars, and readers will find this Companion an indispensable guide to postwar and late-twentieth-century American poetry. Jennifer Ashton is Associate Professor of English at the University of Illinois at Chicago, where she teaches literary theory and the history of poetry. She is author of From Modernism to Postmodernism: American Poetry and Theory in the Twentieth Century and has published articles in Modernism/Modernity, Modern Philology, American Literary History, and Western Humanities Review. A complete list of books in the series is at the back of this book.

Presseartikel Zu Rosmarie Waldrop Konfrontation Zweier Kulturen

März 2005 → 3 Kimberly Lamm, how2, Frühjahr 2002 (engl.) → 13 Susan Vanderborg, how2, Fühjahr 2002 (engl.) Jürgen Brôcan, Neue Zürcher Zeitung, 1. März 2005 Konfrontation zweier Kulturen Rosmarie Waldrop lotet die Sprache Amerikas aus Im Jahre 1643 schrieb ein gewisser Roger Williams eine Abhandlung, hinter deren unspektakulärem Titel sich keineswegs nur eine schlichte Einführung in die Sprache der Narragansett-Indianer verbarg. «A Key Into The Language of America» war vor allem eine anthropologische Studie indianischer Bräuche, die dazu diente, den weissen Siedlern einen moralischen Spiegel vorzuhalten. Die neuenglischen Kolonisten missverstanden allerdings Williams’ Absicht und betrachteten sein Buch als praktischen Leitfaden für Händler, Siedler und Missionare. Roger Williams, der Prediger, hatte bereits zuvor unwillkommenes Gedankengut verbreitet: 1632 verfasste er einen Traktat, in dem er das durch königlichen Freibrief gewährte Recht der Kolonisten an indianischem Land anfocht. Drei Jahre später stellte man ihn deshalb vor Gericht und verurteilte ihn zu dreihundertjähriger Verbannung aus Massachusetts. Williams floh, gründete eine Siedlung namens Providence und lebte vom Ackerbau und Handel mit den Indianern. Rosmarie Waldrop ist, wie sie selbst in ihrem Vorwort betont, in dem Fakten und Poesie sich zu einer unnachahmlich schönen Melange verbinden, in jenem Jahr geboren, in dem Williams' Verbannung endete. Zu dieser Koinzidenz tritt die viel bedeutsamere Gemeinsamkeit der Immigration: In Kitzingen am Main geboren, siedelte Waldrop 1958 in die Vereinigten Staaten über. Der von ihr erwartete Kulturschock blieb indes aus. Fremdartig waren die seltsam klingenden Ortsnamen, Relikte der untergegangenen Sprache der Narragansett.

A Series of Poetry Readings and Lectures Presented by Regents Lecturers Edmond Jabes and Rosmarie Waldrop and Is Being Sponsored by the Literature Department
A series of poetry readings and lectures presented by Regents Lecturers Edmond Jabes and Rosmarie Waldrop and is being sponsored by the Literature Department February 28, 1983 A series of poetry readings and lectures will be offered by Regents' Lecturers Edmond Jabes and Rosmarie Waldrop March 7 through 10 at the University of California, San Diego. Their appearance on the UCSD campus is sponsored by the Department of Literature. Jabes is one of the foremost figures currently writing in French. He was born in Cairo, Egypt, and lives in Paris. Waldrop, a poet and critic and currently a visiting associate professor at Brown University, serves as the American translator for Jabes. Jabes' work might rightly be called unmistakably his own, the sort of writing that can be by no one else. He is best known for a series of seven volumes with the global title "Le Livre des Questions" (The Book of Questions), and another series of three volumes entitled "Le Livre des Ressemblances" (The Book of Resemblances). He has also written a number of other works consisting of autobiographical interviews and has published a book of criticism. Broad recognition of Jabes' work began in the mid-1960s with the publication of the first volume of "The Book of Questions". In 1967, at the Montreal Expo, the French Pavillion presented an exhibit concerning culture which included only four writers: Satre, Camus, Levi-Strauss and Jabes. In 1970 Jabes' work was granted the coveted "Prix des Critiques" and in 1982 he was accorded the French Judaism Foundation's Prize for Arts, Letters and Science.

80S-Abstracts-F2
Abstracts 1 A Ahearn, Barry Tulane University Samuel Menashe: The “Neglected Master” in the Eighties[KF1] PANEL 01A: BEARING WITNESS The 1980s were a difficult period for Samuel Menashe. He would repeatedly offer his poems to major commercial publishers and, just as repeatedly, would be turned down by them. He could not know at the time, but in the 1990s he would be published by Penguin, and in the 21st century he would win a measure of fame as a “neglected master” and be published by the Library of America, one of the very few living poets to be accorded this honor. His search for a publisher in this decade, however, did result in the release of his Collected Poems (New and Selected)[KF2] by the National Poetry Foundation in 1986. The focus of this paper will be on what led to the NPF publication, especially how the championing of his work by Hugh Kenner was crucial. The paper will also describe Menashe’s reaction to the circumstances that led to the publication, his thoughts about the place of that book in the overall arc of his career, and to the degree to which his failure to interest a large commercial publisher in his work is reflected in his poetry. We find, for example, in such poems as “Salt and Pepper,” increasing intimations of the onset of old age without the concurrent critical attention that Menashe felt he deserved. In fact, the theme of elusive fame runs strongly through his poems in this decade. We shall see that although Menashe was pleased to find a publisher in the 1980s, he eventually had mixed feelings about the National Poetry Foundation.
