Stephen King's books have become a lightning rod for the tensions around issues of including "mass market" popular literature in middle and 1.i.gh school English classes and of who chooses what students read. King's fi'tion is among the most popular of "pop" literature, and among the most controversial. These essays spotlight the ways in which King's work intersects with the themes of the literary canon and its construction and maintenance, censorship in public schools, and the need for adolescent readers to be able to choose books in school reading programs. The essays and their authors are: (1) "Reading Stephen King: An Ethnography of an Event" (Brenda Miller Power); (2) "I Want to Be Typhoid Stevie" (Stephen King); (3) "King and Controversy in Classrooms: A Conversation between Teachers and Students" (Kelly Chandler and others); (4) "Of Cornflakes, Hot Dogs, Cabbages, and King" (Jeffrey D.

  • The Mid-Twentieth-Century American Poetic Speaker in the Works of Robert Lowell, Frank O’Hara, and George Oppen
    “THE OCCASION OF THESE RUSES”: THE MID-TWENTIETH-CENTURY AMERICAN POETIC SPEAKER IN THE WORKS OF ROBERT LOWELL, FRANK O’HARA, AND GEORGE OPPEN A dissertation submitted by Matthew C. Nelson In partial fulfillment for the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In English TUFTS UNIVERSITY May 2016 ADVISER: VIRGINIA JACKSON Abstract This dissertation argues for a new history of mid-twentieth-century American poetry shaped by the emergence of the figure of the poetic speaker as a default mode of reading. Now a central fiction of lyric reading, the figure of the poetic speaker developed gradually and unevenly over the course of the twentieth century. While the field of historical poetics draws attention to alternative, non-lyric modes of address, this dissertation examines how three poets writing in this period adapted the normative fiction of the poetic speaker in order to explore new modes of address. By choosing three mid-century poets who are rarely studied beside one another, this dissertation resists the aesthetic factionalism that structures most historical models of this period. My first chapter, “Robert Lowell’s Crisis of Reading: The Confessional Subject as the Culmination of the Romantic Tradition of Poetry,” examines the origins of M.L. Rosenthal’s phrase “confessional poetry” and analyzes how that the autobiographical effect of Robert Lowell’s poetry emerges from a strange, collage-like construction of multiple texts and non- autobiographical subjects. My second chapter reads Frank O’Hara’s poetry as a form of intentionally averted communication that treats the act of writing as a surrogate for the poet’s true object of desire.

  • Modernism and Mathematics
    TIM ARMSTRONG “A Transfinite Syntax”: Modernism and Mathematics “Surely infiniteness is the most evident thing in the world”1 – George Oppen In modernist studies, we are familiar with aCCounts of the impaCt of turn-of-the- century physics on literature. A list would include the influence of relativity and spaCe-time distortion on representation in the arts and literary Culture; the impaCt of X-rays and nuclear fission on ideas of the material and immaterial; and the influenCe of eleCtromagnetism on notions of field theory.2 In similar ways, the impaCt of post-Darwinian biology on literature has often been traCed. 3 In contrast, it has always intrigued me that the turn of the Century also saw a revolution in mathematical thinking, less-noticed in terms of its cultural correlatives and less directly related to the physical world.4 The work of David Hilbert, RiChard Dedekind, Georg Cantor, and others in number theory seemed to offer solutions to some of the major problems inherited from the Greeks—the problem of infinitesimals and infinity generally, which calculus had largely suppressed; and the problem of the Continuity of the number line (that is, of reConCiling Continuity with the discrete nature of any point on the line, a problem 1 George Oppen, New Collected Poems, ed.

  • Depictions of Environmental Crisis in William Carlos Williams's Paterson
    Depictions of Environmental Crisis in William Carlos Williams’s Paterson Sarah Nolan University of Nevada, Reno ~ [email protected] Abstract Reading the environmental crises in William Carlos Williams’s Paterson allegorically allows us to recognize present day environmental concerns more readily and highlights the losses that lie ahead if we continue to ignore environmental threats. Williams’s ecopoetics throughout Paterson, which imaginatively depicts the effects of environmental disasters within the language and form of the poem, shows us the consequences of inaction and the true threat that disaster poses. This poetic example of the consequences of inaction holds particular power because it presents a material experience for all readers and a potentially allegorical poetic experience for the historically situated reader. Paterson shows us that waiting for disaster to force the world “to begin to begin again,” is an unsustainable model for the planet’s future (Williams, 1963, p. 140). By recognizing that this text provides a unique allegorical experience for the historically situated reader and acknowledging the significance of such a message, we can become more aware of the problems that we face now and their potential directions in coming decades. Presented at Bridging Divides: Spaces of Scholarship and Practice in Environmental Communication The Conference on Communication and Environment, Boulder, Colorado, June 11-14, 2015 https://theieca.org/coce2015 Page 2 of 7 In his 2002 book Greening the Lyre: Environmental Poetics and Ethics, David Gilcrest argues that our attitudes toward the natural environment will only change as a result of “environmental crisis” (p. 22). Although this prediction is apt, as evidenced by the rise of resistance movements to environmental recovery agendas over the past two decades, it implies that such environmental crisis must physically devastate the Earth before action will be taken.i Such a model of apocalyptic environmental activism, however, has proven to be ineffective.

    Uneven Uneventfulness — for Kathleen Fraser Susan Gevirtz Discrete Categories Forced into Coupling Kathleen Fraser Apogee Press, 2004 If a writer was allowed to fold one critical essay into the pages of one of her books, so that the essay might fall into the lap of a future reader, Fraser might slip Burton Hatlen’s “Zukofsky As Translator,” into Discrete Categories Forced into Coupling. Recently she handed me a copy of that essay. Next to the word “TRANSLATOR” in the title she had written and underlined the word Transmutation. From the first section of Discrete Categories titled “Champs (fields) & between”: 3. The air came down like rice. It scattered through unevenness and uneventfulness. came down unevenness ___ The first two sentences of the Hatlen essay read: ‘ “To Zukofsky,” Creeley says, “poetry represents a way of seeing words as in the world in much the same way that men are.” Words and men alike are “in the world,” to Zukofsky, as material objects.” ’ p345 1 The Air “The air came down like rice” like “It scattered through unevenness and uneventfulness” __________ The air The rice scattered The words uneven the event of them an unevent that the poem marks. Fraser’s like as Creeley’s alike (“words and men alike)” transmutes air, words, the actions: “came down” and “scattered” into the material rice and into the words we can touch and see on the page, and into the material of the human that is not touchable, that is the time of the unevent, and the feeling of unevenness.

  • George Oppen's Substantives
    CHRISTOPHER OAKEY George Oppen’s Substantives: The Noun as Heideggerian Formal Indicator and Grundwort When Objectivist poet George Oppen published his first collection, Discrete Series, in 1934 it included a preface in which Ezra Pound defended him against “The charge of obscurity”. This charge, Pound writes, has been raised at regular or irregular intervals since the stone age, though there is no living man who is not surprised on first learning that KEATS was considered “obscure”. It takes a very elaborate reconstruction of England in Keats’ time to erect even a shaky hypothesis regarding the probable fixations and ossifications of the then hired bureaucracy of Albermarle St., London West.1 Pound’s statement suggests that, even in its own moment, a historical perspective is needed in order to properly grasp the significance of Oppen’s collection. It takes “a very elaborate reconstruction” of Keats’s England in order to understand Keats’s past obscurity. Similarly, Pound implies, if we are to understand Oppen’s obscurity in 1934 we must recognise a distance between the contextualising poetics of a mainstream audience and the poetics of an avant- garde. Obscurity is, in Pound’s assessment, simply a by-product of a form of difference inherent to the drive to “make it new”. This obscurity belongs as much to the poems’ forms as it does to their content. As in the third poem in the collection, beginning “Thus / Hides the / Parts—the prudery / Of Frigidaire” (NCP 7), the poems of Discrete Series regularly launch from a particular fascination with the quotidian. They do so in such a way, however, that the lyric address is often obstructed by the presence of what is, both materially and linguistically, already there.
