  • Forms of Polyphonic Communication in John Ashbery's Poetry
    “That you too were the I”: Forms of polyphonic communication in John Ashbery’s poetry Elina Siltanen Pro Gradu Thesis English philology Department of English University of Turku April 2008 TURUN YLIOPISTO Englannin kielen laitos / Humanistinen tiedekunta SILTANEN, ELINA: “That you too were the I”: Forms of polyphonic communication in John Ashbery’s poetry Pro gradu -tutkielma, 114 s. Englantilainen filologia Huhtikuu 2008 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tarkastelen tutkimuksessani amerikkalaisen John Ashberyn (1927–) runoudessa ilmenevää moniäänisyyttä. Runoutta pidetään yleensä yksiäänisenä puheena, kun taas romaanin ajatellaan erityisesti Mihail Bahtinin vaikutuksesta olevan luonnostaan moniääninen kirjallisuudenlaji. Ashberyn postmoderni runous haastaa tämän käsityksen. Ashbery tunnetaan vakiintuneita runouskäsityksiä vastaan kirjoittavana avantgarde-runoilijana. Pääasiallisina tutkimuskohteinani ovat Ashberyn pitkä runoelma nimeltä ”Litany” (1979) sekä lyhyiden runojen valikoima Your Name Here (2000). Vertailukohtana tarkastelen Ashberyn yhdessä James Schuylerin kanssa kirjoittamaa romaania A Nest of Ninnies (1969). Teoreettisena pohjana on käytetty Ashberyä käsittelevän muun tutkimuksen lisäksi muun muassa jälkistrukturalistisiin teorioihin liittyviä ajatuksia pronominien vaikutuksesta siihen miten lukija muodostaa käsityksen subjektiivisesta läsnäolosta runossa. Ashbery käyttää persoonapronomineja ilman selkeitä viittaussuhteita. Viittaussuhteiden hämärtymisen

  • The Poetics of John Ashbery
    The Poetics of John Ashbery Gargi Bhattacharya Rabindra Bharati University Abstract John Ashbery (1927- ) takes the postmodernist polysemy of meaning in interpreting a work of art and the polyphony of styles in composing as his forte. He questions the various linguistic codes and makes us aware of the artificiality of the language. All political, ethical and aesthetic imperatives are rhetorical constructs. The writer uses language to persuade the reader to accept the formulated truth and he intervenes in the process of perception by his/her politics of representation. Though his iconoclastic approach towards writing and individuality of style has kept him aloof from mainstream academic syllabi, yet he has now become a prominent figure in Contemporary American Literature. It is interesting to note how Ashbery’s poetry revives the Romantic sensibility while applying the digitalized methods and the postmodern syndromes of immediacy, indeterminacy, disjunctive syntax, open-ended and multiplicity of interpretations. This paper explores the aesthetics of John Ashbery’s poetry. [Keywords: (De)Construction, Aesthetics, Poetics, Response, Contextualism, Digital media.] It is interesting to note how contemporary American poetry is zanus-faced. It is specially noted for innovation and experimentation. Although it gives new interpretation to life, inaugurates new styles of composing, evolves new poetics, yet it looks back at its predecessors for reviving the imagination and reflects the spirit of Emerson, Wallace Stevens or Poe. Several experimental aesthetic movements- Romanticism, Symbolism, Vorticism, Imagism, Surrealism, modernism, post- modernism, and post-structuralism have influenced different genres of poetry. However, the innovative spirit of the contemporary poets is not yet abated. If we distinguish between the aesthetic self, social self and the inner self, then Ashbery’s ruminations are mostly related to this third category or unconsciousness.

  • German Romantic Tradition in John Ashbery's Where Shall I Wander
    Acta Universitatis Wratislaviensis No 3920 Anglica Wratislaviensia LVII, Wrocław 2019 DOI: 10.19195/0301-7966.57.6 Paweł Marcinkiewicz ORCID: 0000-0002-7086-1805 University of Opole [email protected] Daniel Pietrek ORCID: 0000-0002-1582-6070 University of Opole [email protected] German Romantic Tradition in John Ashbery’s Where Shall I Wander Abstract: In popular critical and readerly reception, the New York School of poetry was shaped mostly by what Marjorie Perloff calls the tradition of indeterminacy. This was started by Arthur Rimbaud and, a few decades later, developed by Dadaists and Surrealists. Therefore, the tradition of French modernism seems to have been vital for John Ashbery, Frank O’Hara, James Schuler, and Barbara Guest, and the poets themselves appeared to confirm this fact. They often visited France privately and as scholars, and lived there for extended periods of time. In the case of John Ashbery, his year-long Fulbright fellowship was prolonged to a decade. Moreover, the New York School poets contributed to the propagation of French literature, being translators, critics and editors of French authors. However, as John Ashbery’s late works prove, literary genealogies are far more complex. German Romantic tradition always exerted an important influence on John Ashbery, and it inspired the New York experimenter to contribute two major poems to the twenty-first century American literature: “Where Shall I Wander” and “Hölderlin Marginalia”. Keywords: New York School poetry, John Ashbery, Where Shall I Wander, Caspar Friedrich, Fried- rich Hölderlin, German Romanticism In terms of its philosophical background and thematic scope, as well as the artistic methods it developed, the New York School of poetry—very much like its visual analogue, Abstract Expressionism—was probably the most genuinely American of all the twentieth-century avant-garde movements.

In “’Borrowed Country: DigitaL Media, Remediation, and North American Poetry in the Twenty-First Century,” I discuss five American poets who have variousLy discussed and made use of particuLar forms of digitaL media in their work: John Ashbery, Anne Carson, Kevin Young, Steve Roggenbuck, and Patricia Lockwood. I am interested in these poets because they circuLate work via traditionaL sites and networks of pubLication – individuaL voLumes and poetry journaLs in print – whiLe maintaining investments in the ways digitaL modes of writing and pubLishing have both changed these conventionaL sites of transmission and created additionaL venues in which to circulate poetry: e-books, web sites, sociaL media networks. The work of Ashbery, Carson, Young, Roggenbuck, and Lockwood reminds us in various ways that constant remediation is a condition of our hypermediated Lives. The poets surveyed here aLL write about culturaL objects as they change over time: they demonstrate how works are overshadowed or otherwise obscured by historicaL imperatives that desire broad strokes and tidy narratives, fragmented or erased by poor care or inattention over the passage of time, reprinted and resituated across various print and digitaL editions.

    JOHN ASHBERY BIBLIOGRAPHY [2] John Ashbery was born in Rochester, New York, in 1927, he is well known as an art critic and poet. He is perhaps one of the best known Poets of the “New York School”. Ashbery graduated from Har- vard in 1947 where he wrote a study on his favourite poet Wallace Stevens. The poetry of Stevens has influenced Ashbery’s own poetry, however his poetry is characterized by originality in both his form of poems and their content. Ashbery received his B.A. degree in literature from Harvard in 1949 and moved to New York City where he was affiliated with poets Frank O’Hara, James Schuyler, Barbara Guest, Kenneth Koch, and painters Jane Freilicher, Larry Rivers, Nell Blaine, and Fairfield Porter.Ash- bery’s writings also include several plays, novels and distinguished works of literary criticism, as well as numerous English translations of French literature. He has also enjoyed a distinguished career as an art critic for the Paris edition of the New York Herald Tribune and Newsweek, and as editor of Art News. He is an authority, in particular, on the work of the late American realist painter Fairfield Porter. In addition to all regular editions, there have been many privately printed, small press and fine art edi- tions, as well as volumes combining several titles.

  • John Ashbery's Quick Question and Its Forms of Inventiveness
    John Ashbery’s Quick Question and Its Forms of Inventiveness 203 Paweł Marcinkiewicz John Ashbery’s Quick Question and Its Forms of Inventiveness Perhaps the most conspicuous feature of John Ashbery’s recent poetry is its in- ventiveness: each of his volumes published in the last decade seems to surpass the scope of his earlier books, subtly rede!ning generic boundaries and undoing formal constrictions. As a result, each Ashbery collection evokes for the reader a feeling of a new and distinct poetic voice. "is is visible already in Your Name Here (2000), introducing snippy lyrics (“"is Room,” “Avenue Mozart,” or “Stan- zas Before Time”), so di#erent from the vast landscapes of Ashbery’s preceding collection, Girls on the Run (1999). "e later volumes, As Umbrellas Follow Rain (2001) and Chinese Whispers (2002), while still experimenting with the form of the short lyric, hit a more humorous note, which bears a striking resemblance to the nineteenth-century English nonsense poet, Edward Lear.1 Where Shall I Wander (2005) exercises a seemingly more accessible lyricism, but the volume also features several longer prose poems, such as “Coma Bernices,” “From China to Peru,” or the eponymous “Where Shall I Wander,” whose novelty consists in a peculiar time perspective, where the future is seen retroactively as a form of the past. Finally, A Worldly Country (2007) and Planisphere (2009) seem to formulate their most signi!cant meanings on the level of language units, including trite expressions and clichés, which work similarly to the Wittgensteinian linguistic paradigms, expressing a collective experience rooted in the cultural and social spheres.

  • LRB · Michael Robbins · Remember the Yak (Print Version)
    Back to Article page Remember the Yak Michael Robbins Planisphere by John Ashbery Carcanet, 143 pp, £12.95, December 2009, ISBN 978 1 84777 089 9 It’s been two years since the last one, so it must be time for a new book of poems by John Ashbery. Like the old James Bond films, Ashbery’s late instalments arrive punctually, and you buy your ticket knowing what to expect: a suave cartoon with ridiculous gadgets, clever one-liners and last-minute escapes. ‘So Long, Santa’, the penultimate poem in Ashbery’s previous collection, A Worldly Country (2007), worried that ‘it will come round again/and we won’t be ready.’ Planisphere begins with the lines: ‘Is it possible that spring could be/once more approaching?’ Forever bowled over by the same old thing, finding difference in repetition, Ashbery is the Duracell bunny of American poetry. The bunny is getting rather long in the tooth – Ashbery turned 83 in July – and he has been writing the same book for more than 15 years. Each new model struts gorgeously down the runway, a bit aloof, a bit silly, and the critics can’t tell them apart. The New York Times’s reviewer found 2005’s Where Shall I Wander ‘both deeply familiar and more than a little strange’; the Philadelphia Inquirer considered A Worldly Country to be ‘strange’ but also ‘much of the time very familiar’. Publishers’ Weekly’s review of Planisphere notes that ‘as in his last several books, there’s nothing entirely new,’ but ‘the poems are almost always satisfying and strange.’ As Ashbery himself put it in Flow Chart: ‘We all go often to a place we are familiar with,/though it seems strange and uncompromising.’ Ashbery’s singular achievement is to have made his strangeness so familiar.
