  • THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY of AMERICA American Poetry at Mid
    THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY OF AMERICA American Poetry at Mid-Century: Warren, Jarrell, and Lowell A DISSERTATION Submitted to the Faculty of the Department of English School of Arts and Sciences Of The Catholic University of America In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree Doctor of Philosophy By Joan Romano Shifflett Washington, D.C. 2013 American Poetry at Mid-Century: Warren, Jarrell, and Lowell Joan Romano Shifflett, Ph.D. Director: Ernest Suarez, Ph.D. This dissertation explores the artistic and personal connections between three writers who helped change American poetry: Robert Penn Warren, Randall Jarrell, and Robert Lowell. All three poets maintained a close working relationship throughout their careers, particularly as they experimented with looser poetic forms and more personal poetry in the fifties and after. Various studies have explored their careers within sundry contexts, but no sustained examination of their relationships with one another exists. In focusing on literary history and aesthetics, this study develops an historical narrative that includes close-readings of primary texts within a variety of contexts. Established views of formalism, high modernism, and the New Criticism are interwoven into the study as tools for examining poetic structure within selected poems. Contexts concerning current criticism on these authors are also interlaced throughout the study and discussed in relation to particular historical and aesthetic issues. Having closely scrutinized the personal exchanges and creative output of all three poets, this study illuminates the significance of these writers’ relationships to American poetry at mid- century and beyond. Though the more experimental schools of poetry would not reach their height until the 1950s, by the 1940s Warren, Jarrell, and Lowell were already searching for a new aesthetic.

Robert Frost writes in “Spring Pools”: The trees that have it in their pent-up buds To darken nature and be summer woods— Let them think twice before they use their powers To blot out and drink up and sweep away These Bowery waters and these watery Bowers From snow that melted only yesterday.

    Miming the Poem 1 Miming the Poem: Influence and Imitation in Robert Lowell‘s Poetic A Thesis Submitted to The Faculty of the School of Communication In Candidacy for the Degree of Master of Arts in English by Andrew Scott Walker May 2010 Miming the Poem 2 Liberty University School of Communication Master of Arts in English Dr. Matthew Towles _______________________________________________________________________ Thesis Chair Date Dr. Emily Walker Heady _______________________________________________________________________ First Reader Date Dr. Karen Swallow Prior _______________________________________________________________________ Second Reader Date Miming the Poem 3 Acknowledgements In a thesis that rejects a demurral to recognize influence, I find it especially important to thank those who have so decisively influenced and assisted me in my own scholarly endeavors. First, I owe a great debt of gratitude to my thesis committee, Dr. Matthew Towles, Dr. Emily Heady, and Dr. Karen Prior. Each, in their own way, has been important in my development as a student, a teacher, a writer, and, most importantly, as a fellow Christian. I hope one day to be as kind and as firm a teacher as these three professors have been to me. They have been particularly responsible for helping me to understand what it means to be a Christian ever about the business of ―revising my life,‖ and, for that, I am certainly grateful. But I would be remiss to not make mention of two other particular individuals who have also impacted the writing of this thesis: Nick Olson and Nathan Valle. Their friendship and assistance have helped me in ways that I‘m sure this thesis quite clearly exhibits, and I‘m sure their influence has extended into my life in ways even I‘m not sure of myself.

  • The Literary Criticism of Randall Jarrell
    INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo­ graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. For any illustrations that cannot be reproduced satisfactorily by xerography, photographic prints can be purchased at additional cost and tipped into your xerographic copy.

    THE UNITED STATES SOUTH AND LITERARY STUDIES DURING THE COLD WAR By JORDAN J. DOMINY A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2011 1 © 2011 Jordan J. Dominy 2 To Jessica Peek Dominy 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Coming from rural Georgia, I speak with an accent that once led a student of mine to interrupt one of my lectures with the question, “I’m sorry, but where are you from?” For this reason and others, I did not see myself writing a dissertation focusing on southern literature. While I enjoyed reading southern authors, as a new graduate student actually researching and writing about them did not cross my mind right away. I suppose subconsciously I worried that if I pursued its study I would become the real-life walking, talking stereotype of the southern scholar, accent and all. However, the community of scholars that I am grateful to be a part of at the University of Florida helped me to see a place where I could make a needed, and what I hope is, a useful intervention in southern studies. I thank my advisor, Susan Hegeman, for being an encouraging and supportive teacher. She provided valuable feedback from our very first conversations about potential dissertation projects and pointed me in the new directions southern studies is taking. Also helpful early in the project was Phillip Wegner, one of my readers, whose seminar first got me thinking a lot about late modernism.
