Bishop on WWII and the Cold
WASHINGTONDC, 1 949-1 950 Bishop on WWII & the Cold War lizabeth Bishop-from her attic office at the Library of E Congress during her year as poetry consultant in 1949- 1950-could literally see the Capitol every work day as the national government began to formulate the Cold War and to commit the nation to the Korean War in 1950.' She therefore had a "privileged" insider's view of the Cold War's "arrival" in, or invasion of, daily US life. Official Washington rhetoric over- flowed with visions of the postwar nation's power to vanquish Communism and to save the world. The US international news magazine Time reported an example of this emerging dominant national discourse in its May 29, 1950 issue as it quoted a gov- ernment spokesman on Cold War "containment" policy: It is the only war in history where the question of destruction doesn't enter into it at all. Everything we are doing is building up. We have rebuilt Europe, not destroyed it. Now, if we carry on a smart, resourceful, cold war, the kind of war free people can carry on, Russia will be contained. All we have to do is carry on intelligently, and at ex- tremely low cost, the political, economic, inilitary and informational measures already under way. (1) While official Washington saw itself in mythical propor- tions and persuaded most of its citizens, as well as much of the world, to Giew it this way, it is not surprising that Bishop was not among the supporters in spite of her "insider's" government post.

Metaphors of Innocence and Chiidhood: Parallels in Elizabeth Bishop And
METAPHORS OF INNOCENCE AND CHIIDHOOD: PARALLELS IN ELIZABETH BISHOP AND THREE SEVENTEENTH-CENTURY METAPHYSICAL POETS By SALLY BISHOP SHIGLEY Bachelor of Arts University of Utah Salt Iake City, Utah 1984 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS December, 1987 lkii<t>IS 19~1 SS5SM Co~·~ ....... : '. ~· : . .: .. ... ~ ' ' METAPHORS OF INNOCENCE AND CHILDHOOD: PARALLELS IN ELIZABETH BISHOP AND THREE SEVENTEENTH-CENTURY METAPHYSICAL POETS Thesis Approved: Dean of the Graduate College ii 1291058 PREFACE The vivid imagery and subtle wit of Elizabeth Bishop's poetry have intrigued me ever since I first encountered her work in an undergraduate seminar at the University of Utah. Moving from regularly anthologized poems such as "The Fish" to the more obscure "Nova Scotia" poems and then into scholarly criticism of Bishop's work, I was dismayed to discover that many critics read her poems as touching, cathartic encounters with her tragic childhood instead of deliberate pieces of fiction. Even very helpful bibliographies, such as the recent one by Barbara Page, call poems featuring child speakers "autobiographical" or discuss critics' explorations of "autobiographical" elements, without defining or proving why they are autobiographical. Finding no help in the critics, I turned to other poets and, following T. s. Eliot's lead, looked back to the image filled worlds of George Herbert, Andrew Marvell, and Henry Vaughan. In their poetry, I found parallel metaphors of childhood and poetic techniques that helped me modify the purely autobiographical readings of Bishop and establish her as part of a poetic tradition.
