Wallace Stevens (1879-1955)
From Houghton Mifflin Publishers, a brief guide for how to teach this difficult poet.
http://college.hmco.com/english/heath/syllabuild/iguide/stevens.html

Extractions: Wallace Stevens (1879-1955) Contributing Editor: Linda W. Wagner-Martin The sheer difficulty of apprehending meaning from some of Stevens's poems turns many students away. Yet Stevens is one of the most apt voices to speak about the perfection, and the perfectibility, of the poem the supreme fiction in the writer's, and the reader's, lives. If students can read Stevens's poems well, they will probably be able to read anything in the text. The elusiveness of meaning is one key difficulty: Stevens's valiant attempts to avoid paraphrase, to lose himself in brilliant language, to slide into repetition and assonantal patterns without warning. His work demands complete concentration, and complete sympathy, from his readers. Most students cannot give poetry either of these tributes without some preparation. Close reading, usually aloud, helps. The well-known Stevens language magic has to be experienced, and since the poems are difficult, asking students to work on them alone, in isolation, is not the best tactic. Beginning with the poems by Stevens might make reading T. S. Eliot

Wallace Stevens, New York Times Obituary
Published August 3, 1955
http://www.writing.upenn.edu/~afilreis/Stevens/obit.html

Extractions: August 3, 1955 Wallace Stevens, Noted Poet, Dead Special to The New York Times Hartford, August 2 Wallace Stevens, vice president of the Hartford Accident and Indemnity Company and a Pulitzer Prize winner for poetry this year, died in St. Francis Hospital today. He was 75 years old. Mr. Stevens joined the local insurance company in 1916 as head of the Surety Claims Department. He was named a vice president in 1934. He also was a vice president of the Hartford Livestock Insurance Company. A native of Reading, Pa., Mr. Stevens attended Harvard and received a law degree from New York Law School. He is survived by his widow, Mrs. Elsie V. Kachel Stevens, and a daughter, Miss Holly B. Stevens, also of Hartford. His Work Reviewed Wallace Stevens was a weaver whose threads were words. He spun webs to trap his moods. "Hence, unpleasant as it is to record such a conclusion, the very remarkable work of Wallace Stevens cannot endure," wrote Percy Hutchison, the late poetry editor of The New York Times. Mr. Hutchison had just reviewed the new edition of the poet's "Harmonium." That was in 1931, eight years after the volume first appeared. The poetry editor described the poems as closest to pure poetry. He explained that such works depended for their effectiveness on the rhythms and tonal values of words used with only the remotest link to ideational content.

I can't make head or tail of Life. Love is a fine thing, Art is a fine thing, Nature is a fine thing; but the average human mind and spirit are confusing beyond measure.

The wilderness rose up to it, And sprawled around, no longer wild. The jar was round upon the ground And tall and of a port in air. It took dominion everywhere. The jar was gray and bare. It did not give of bird or bush, Like nothing else in

Extractions: There is nothing I can write here to either enhance or detract from the status of Wallace Stevens. Reading this book was more an act of reverence than anything else, to find out what so many of the poets I love and respect are talking about first hand. I was surprised to discover that most of the poems by Stevens that are widely know and quoted are in his first book, the first hundred pages of this five hundred page books. But reading on, I discovered the Stevens of the sound bite type quotations I'm constantly running into. This is the poem working out his larger philosophical concerns in greater and greater detail. Sometimes it was hard going, like reading the works of a 12th century Scholastic; but it was always worth it. He always had a clear point. This is a must read. It shoudn't necessarily be the first collected/selected/complete anthology you should read, but it should be definitely there among the others.

Extractions: A sunny day's complete Poussiniana Divide it from itself. It is this or that And it is not. By metaphor you paint A thing. Thus, the pineapple was a leather fruit, A fruit for pewter, thorned and palmed and blue, To be served by men of ice. The senses paint By metaphor. The juice was fragranter Than wettest cinnamon. It was cribled pears Dripping a morning sap. The truth must be That you do not see, you experience, you feel, That the buxom eye brings merely its element To the total thing, a shapeless giant forced Upward. Green were the curls upon that head.

Extractions: yikuno's Full Review: Stevens Wallace When I read Wallace Stevens, I knew that he was, to put it dramatically, what I had been struggling with my entire life. The profusion of images in his poetry made no sense to me, but they were beautiful... in the same way, I have been breathing life and not been able to make complete sense of it. Some things were made to be enjoyed, not analysed, and Stevens's poetry is at the top of this list for me. Stevens lived from 1879-1955. He was an insurance lawyer, and never a "professional" poet. All the more amazing then are his creations, composed during his afternoon lunch breaks and walks. He wrote of "Bright & Blue Birds & the Gala Sun" and "The Pure Good of Theory". His poetry is sensual yet it seems the epitome of intellectuality at the same time, simply because it is so ungraspable. All his life, I believe Stevens struggled with the tension between reality and fiction he is often branded a fiercely anti-social poet, because issues of racism, war and depression seldom take explicit form in his poetry. But he is no less a social poet for this omission, which is not really an omission.
