I keep it in encrypted form on my personal computer where only I can get at it. My password is pAtTypUkE. I don't want it to be published or known while I'm alive, but kept only for my private masturbation fantasies.

  • THE COLLECTED POEMS of HENRIK IBSEN Translated by John Northam
    1 THE COLLECTED POEMS OF HENRIK IBSEN Translated by John Northam 2 PREFACE With the exception of a relatively small number of pieces, Ibsen’s copious output as a poet has been little regarded, even in Norway. The English-reading public has been denied access to the whole corpus. That is regrettable, because in it can be traced interesting developments, in style, material and ideas related to the later prose works, and there are several poems, witty, moving, thought provoking, that are attractive in their own right. The earliest poems, written in Grimstad, where Ibsen worked as an assistant to the local apothecary, are what one would expect of a novice. Resignation, Doubt and Hope, Moonlight Voyage on the Sea are, as their titles suggest, exercises in the conventional, introverted melancholy of the unrecognised young poet. Moonlight Mood, To the Star express a yearning for the typically ethereal, unattainable beloved. In The Giant Oak and To Hungary Ibsen exhorts Norway and Hungary to resist the actual and immediate threat of Prussian aggression, but does so in the entirely conventional imagery of the heroic Viking past. From early on, however, signs begin to appear of a more personal and immediate engagement with real life. There is, for instance, a telling juxtaposition of two poems, each of them inspired by a female visitation. It is Over is undeviatingly an exercise in romantic glamour: the poet, wandering by moonlight mid the ruins of a great palace, is visited by the wraith of the noble lady once its occupant; whereupon the ruins are restored to their old splendour.

INDEX HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW 1451 It was possibly in about this year that the Iroquois tribes of the area that would become upstate New York were tugged out of their incessant internal struggles by the appearance of Deganawida (Two River Currents Flowing Together), a Huron who would become famous as the “Peacemaker.” This negotiator apparently was hindered, like Moses, by some sort of language or speech difficulty, but eventually won the support of Ayawentha (He Makes Rivers), an Onondaga who became a war chief among the Mohawk (and who would achieve a posthumous poetic fame as “Hiawatha”).3 The distinguished duo were somehow able to convince the other Iroquois tribes that in order to achieve ascendancy over other redskins, they needed to bring their own incessant internal strugglings to an end. Since the legend has it that Deganawida produced a miracle of blotting out the sun, and since we know that a solar eclipse would have occurred in upstate New York in 1451 if it wasn’t too cloudy that day to be seen, this would be a possible year for the conciliation work that would bring peace and unprecedented prosperity, and political unity and unprecedented military power.
