    ENG 351 Lecture 33 1 Let’s finish discussing Gwendolyn Brooks. I would like your indulgence to make up for last time. I really was blind. It was — and one of you saved my life, with my visual migraine which sent me into something of a panic. Something else I’ve learned is you should never — you should never read a poem in public that you haven’t read for many years. It can sneak up on you and kick you, and that’s what this poem did. I haven’t looked at The Chicago Defender poem for a long, long, long time. And here I am, half blinded, and then I got emotional at the end of it. So I apologize for that and see if I can get through this with a decent reading. That happened to me one time before with a poem called “April Inventory” by W. D. Snodgrass. And sometimes, you know, poetry has a — has a way of getting to you, whether you want it to or not. But let me — it’s a good poem. It’s only a few minutes long. If you can bear with it, I wanted to get that on in the lesson. This was the poem that I asked Gwendolyn Brooks why she didn’t read it while she was here and she said she no longer liked the ending of it. So I particularly want you to pay attention to the ending of it. She asked me why I liked it and I said because I’m from Little Rock, and then she inquired, “How old were you in 1957?” And when I told her I was eleven, it was okay.

  • Leonard Bernstein (1918-1990)
    NOTES ON THE PROGRAM An Introduction Voltaire and Bernstein’s Candide plunge us from a fool’s world of naiveté to a pain- ful world of war, natural disasters, tragedy, fear of commitment, fear of facts, all cast under a cloud of faux sentimentality—yet with a wink towards truth and love. What an honor it is for The Knights to celebrate Leonard Bernstein in his musical home of Tanglewood with a work that encompasses all of his brilliant contradictions. Bernstein was both a man of his century and ahead of his time—socially, politically, and musically—which makes his centennial feel youthful and timely if not timeless. He lived through some of the world’s darkest times of war, fear, and terror, and his outpouring of joy, love, humor, love, generosity, love, and truth spill from him like it has from only a few geniuses before him. “You’ve been a fool, and so have I.... We’re neither pure, nor wise, nor good” (Voltaire, Candide). Bernstein found a fellow optimis- tic jester in Voltaire. Voltaire wrote “It is love; love, the comfort of the human species, the preserver of the universe, the soul of all sentient beings, love, tender love.” Bernstein’s music embodies this senti- ment. Together, they show us many beautiful and joyous puzzle pieces that connect our imperfect best-of-all-possible-worlds. ERIC JACOBSEN, THE KNIGHTS Leonard Bernstein (1918-1990) “Candide” A Very Brief History Bernstein composed Candide from 1954 through August 1956, with Hershy Kay assisting with the orchestration; the libretto was by Lillian Hellman, based on the novella Candide, ou l’Optimisme, by Voltaire, the pen name of François-Marie Arouet (1694-1778).

His verse play Schnauzer was recently published by Exot Books. A former director of the Unterberg Poetry Center of the 92nd Street Y in New York, he is chair of the Writing Seminars at Johns Hopkins and editor of the The Hopkins Review. He is currently at work on the biography of Anthony Hecht. 3-DAY CRITICAL SEMINAR ON AMERICAN MASTER ANTHONY HECHT WITH DAVID YEZZI Anthony Hecht (1923-2004) returned from combat in WW II devastated by the horrors he had seen. Soon after, he established a lifelong connection to Italy that began with a move to the island of Ischia (where he met W. H. Auden) and ended at the Bogliasco Foundation, near Genoa, where he wrote his final poems in 2004. A longtime professor of Shakespeare and a United Sates Poet Laureate, Hecht won the Pulitzer Prize for The Hard Hours in 1968. Possible areas of interest for seminar participants include Shakespeare, the Bible, war poetry, Post Traumatic Stress, the Holocaust, Renaissance poetry, twentieth-century poetry, Jewish studies, the New Criticism, dramatic poetry, and W. H. Auden. In addition to experiencing a high level of discourse on one of America’s most important poetic voices, participants will present brief papers on an individual Hecht poem or on an aspect of Hecht’s life and work. Presentations will be followed by group discussion. 3 Robert Archambeau is a poet and critic whose books include the critical studies Laureates and Heretics: Six Careers in American Poetry, The Poet Resigns: Poetry in a Difficult World, and Inventions of a Barbarous Age: Poetry from Conceptualism to Rhyme.
