Modern Poetry (ENGL 310) with Langdon Hammer
Wallace Stevens is considered as an unapologetically Romantic poet of imagination. His search for meaning in a universe without religion in "Sunday Morning" is likened to Crane's energetic quest for meaning and symbol. In "The Poems of Our Climate," Stevens's desire to reduce poetry to essential terms, and then his countering resistance to this impulse, are explored. Finally, "The Man on the Dump" is considered as a typically Stevensian search for truth in specifically linguistic terms.

Modern Poetry (ENGL 310) with Langdon Hammer
Marie Borroff guest-lectures on Wallace Stevens's late seasonal poem, "The Auroras of Autumn." The poem is considered sequentially, beginning with Stevens's mythology of the three serpents in section one and concluding with an examination of the beauty of the world, as Stevens conceives of it, in sections eight through ten. The poet's optimism and fundamental belief in the power of imagination to divest death of its power is repeatedly demonstrated. The poem's final sections are shown to exemplify characteristically Stevensian conceptions of peace and happiness in the face of death.

Modern Poetry (ENGL 310) with Langdon Hammer
The late poetry of Wallace Stevens is presented and analyzed. Stevens's conception of the poet as reader and the world as a text to be read and translated is considered in "Large Red Man Reading" and "The Poem that Took the Place of a Mountain." The poet's preoccupation with natural cycles and sensory experience is exhibited in "The Plain Sense of Things." Finally, "A Primitive Like an Orb" is interpreted as Stevens's final vision of ceaseless change and transition in the world, in which the poet's verbal play participates.

Wallace Stevens
Wallace Stevens (October 2, 1879 – August 2, 1955) was an American Modernist poet. He was born in Reading, Pennsylvania, educated at Harvard and then New York Law School, and he spent most of his life working as an executive for an insurance company in Hartford, Connecticut. He won the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry for his Collected Poems in 1955.
Some of his best-known poems include "Anecdote of the Jar," "Disillusionment of Ten O'Clock," "The Emperor of Ice-Cream," "The Idea of Order at Key West," "Sunday Morning," "The Snow Man," and "Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Blackbird."
Life and career
Education and marriage
The son of a prosperous lawyer, Stevens attended Harvard as a non-degree special student, after which he moved to New York City and briefly worked as a journalist. He then attended New York Law School, graduating in 1903. On a trip back to Reading in 1904 Stevens met Elsie Viola Kachel (1886–1963, also known as Elsie Moll), a young woman who had worked as a saleswoman, milliner, and stenographer. After a long courtship, he married her in 1909 over the objections of his parents, who considered her lower-class. As The New York Times reported in an article in 2009, "Nobody from his family attended the wedding, and Stevens never again visited or spoke to his parents during his father’s lifetime." A daughter, Holly, was born in 1924. She later edited her father's letters and a collection of his poems.

Wallace Stevens "Not ideas about the thing, but the thing itself" Poem animationWallace Stevens "Not ideas about the thing, but the thing itself" Poem animation
Here's a virtual movie of the celebrated American modernist poet Wallace Stevens reading my favourite of his poems. "Not Ideas About The Thing But The Thing Itself" This beautiful poem needs to be read in its text form for us to attempt to grasp at its somewhat obscure meaning.There are many lofty explanations around the internet,but to at least my simplistic way of thinking it likens the dawn with the the realization of reality,and like many a great poem the poems exact meaning is open to the interpretation of everyone that reads or hears it,but one thing is for sure this short somewhat perplexing poem is a thing of beauty. Wallace Stevens (October 2, 1879 -- August 2, 1955) was an American Modernist poet. He was born in Reading, Pennsylvania, educated at Harvard and then New York Law School, and he spent most of his life working as an executive for an insurance company in Hartford, Connecticut. He won the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry for his Collected Poems in 1955. Stevens is a rare example of a poet whose main output came at a fairly advanced age. His first major publication (four poems from a sequence entitled "Phases" in the November 1914 edition of Poetry Magazine)[22] was written at the age of thirty-five, although as an undergraduate at Harvard, Stevens had written poetry and exchanged sonnets with George Santayana, with whom he was close through much of his life. Many of his canonical works were written well after he turned fifty. According to the literary critic Harold Bloom, who called Stevens the "best and most representative" American poet of the time,[23] no Western writer since Sophocles has had such a late flowering of artistic genius. Vendler notes that there are three distinguishable moods present in Stevens' long poems: ecstasy, apathy, and reluctance between ecstasy and apathy.[24] She also notes that his poetry was highly influenced by the paintings of Paul Klee and Paul Cezanne: Stevens saw in the paintings of both Paul Klee--who was his favorite painter--and Cezanne the kind of work he wanted to do himself as a Modernist poet. Klee had imagined symbols. Klee is not a directly realistic painter and is full of whimsical and fanciful and imaginative and humorous projections of reality in his paintings. The paintings are often enigmatic or full of riddles, and Stevens liked that as well. What Stevens liked in Cezanne was the reduction, you might say, of the world to a few monumental objects.[25] Stevens's first book of poetry, a volume of rococo inventiveness titled Harmonium, was published in 1923. He produced two more major books of poetry during the 1920s and 1930s and three more in the 1940s. He received the annual National Book Award for Poetry twice, in 1951 for The Auroras of Autumn[26][27] and in 1955 for Collected Poems. Kind Regards Jim Clark All rights are reserved on this video recording copyright Jim Clark 2012 Not Ideas About The Thing But The Thing Itself At the earliest ending of winter, In March, a scrawny cry from outside Seemed like a sound in his mind. He knew that he heard it, A bird's cry, at daylight or before, In the early March wind. The sun was rising at six, No longer a battered panache above snow ... It would have been outside. It was not from the vast ventriloquism Of sleep's faded papier-mache ... The sun was coming from the outside. That scrawny cry — It was A chorister whose c preceded the choir. It was part of the colossal sun, Surrounded by its choral rings, Still far away. It was like A new knowledge of reality. -

In this informal talk and audio presentation, Professor Helen Vendler reflects on what did and did not draw her to Wallace Stevens when she first encountered his work in her twenties. She asks why Stevens, in his seventies, was drawn to a plainness of style not present in his first book, Harmonium (1923). Specific attention is paid to the following poems: "Bantams in Pine Woods," "To the One of Fictive Music," "Final Soliloquy of the Interior Paramour," and "Not Ideas about the Thing but the Thing Itself."

Famous quotes by Wallace Stevens:
"Money is a kind of poetry."
"To regard the imagination as metaphysics is to think of it as part of life, and to think of it as part of life is to realize the extent of artifice. We live in the mind."
"Style is not something applied. It is something that permeates. It is of the nature of that in which it is found, whether the poem, the manner of a god, the bearing of a man. It is not a dress."
"A poet looks at the world as a man looks at a woman"
"In poetry, you must love the words, the ideas and the images and rhythms with all your capacity to love anything at all"
"Death is the mother of Beauty; hence from her, Alone, shall come fulfillment to our dreams And our desires"
"I do not know which to prefer, The beauty of inflections, Or the beauty of innuendoes, The blackbird whistling, Or just after"
"Most people read poetry listening for echoes because the echoes are familiar to them. They wade through it the way a boy wades through water, feeling with his toes for the bottom: The echoes are the bottom."
"Perhaps the truth depends on a walk around the lake."
"After the final no there comes a yes and on that yes the future of the world hangs."
"If some really acute observer made as much of egotism as Freud has made of sex, people would forget a good deal about sex and find the explanation for everything in egotism."
"Everything is complicated; if that were not so, life and poetry and everything else would be a bore."
"We say God and the imagination are one... How high that highest candle lights the dark."
"I do not know which to prefer, The beauty of inflections, Or the beauty of innuendoes, The blackbird whistling, Or just after."
"Accuracy of observation is the equivalent of accuracy of thinking."
"The reason can give nothing at all Like the response to desire."
"The day of the sun is like the day of a king. It is a promenade in the morning, a sitting on the throne at noon, a pageant in the evening."
"Death is the mother of Beauty; hence from her, alone, shall come fulfillment to our dreams and our desires."
"Reality is not what it is. It consists of the many realities which it can be made into."

19. Wallace Stevens
Modern Poetry (ENGL 310) with Langdon Hammer Wallace Stevens is considered as an unapologetically Romantic poet of imagination. His search for meaning in a universe without religion in "Sunday Morning" is likened to Crane's energetic quest for meaning and symbol. In "The Poems of Our Climate," Stevens's desire to reduce poetry to essential terms, and then his countering resistance to this impulse, are explored.

20. Wallace Stevens (cont.)
Modern Poetry (ENGL 310) with Langdon Hammer Marie Borroff guest-lectures on Wallace Stevens's late seasonal poem, "The Auroras of Autumn." The poem is considered sequentially, beginning with Stevens's mythology of the three serpents in section one and concluding with an examination of the beauty of the world, as Stevens conceives of it, in sections eight through ten. The poet's optimism and fundamental belief in the power of imagination to divest death of its power is repeatedly demonstrated. The poem's final sections are shown to exemplify characteristically Stevensian conceptions of peace and happiness in the face of death. 00:00 - Chapter 1. Introduction 02:10 - Chapter 2.

21. Wallace Stevens (cont.)
Modern Poetry (ENGL 310) with Langdon Hammer The late poetry of Wallace Stevens is presented and analyzed. Stevens's conception of the poet as reader and the world as a text to be read and translated is considered in "Large Red Man Reading" and "The Poem that Took the Place of a Mountain." The poet's preoccupation with natural cycles and sensory experience is exhibited in "The Plain Sense of Things." Finally, "A Primitive Like an Orb" is interpreted as Stevens's final vision of ceaseless change and transition in the world, in which the poet's verbal play participates. 00:00 - Chapter 1.

The Snow Man by Wallace Stevens (read by Tom O'Bedlam)
It's a single sentence. The pictures are hi-res wallpapers from here:: http://www.winwallpapers.net/ One must have a mind of winter To regard the frost and the boughs Of the pine-trees crusted with snow; And have been cold a long time To behold the junipers shagged with ice, The spruces rough in the distant glitter Of the January sun; and not to think Of any misery in the sound of the wind, In the sound of a few leaves, Which is the sound of the land Full of the same wind That is blowing in the same bare place For the listener, who listens in the snow, And, nothing himself, beholds Nothing that is not there and the nothing that is.

Wallace Stevens "Not ideas about the thing, but the thing itself" Poem animation
Here's a virtual movie of the celebrated American modernist poet Wallace Stevens reading my favourite of his poems. "Not Ideas About The Thing But The Thing Itself" This beautiful poem needs to be read in its text form for us to attempt to grasp at its somewhat obscure meaning.There are many lofty explanations around the internet,but to at least my simplistic way of thinking it likens the dawn with the the realization of reality,and like many a great poem the poems exact meaning is open to the interpretation of everyone that reads or hears it,but one thing is for sure this short somewhat perplexing poem is a thing of beauty. Wallace Stevens (October 2, 1879 -- August 2, 1955) was an American Modernist poet. He was born in Reading, Pennsylvania, educated at Harvard and then New York Law S...

REEL TIME: Helen Vendler on the Recordings of Wallace Stevens - Woodberry Poetry Room
In this informal talk and audio presentation, Professor Helen Vendler reflects on what did and did not draw her to Wallace Stevens when she first encountered his work in her twenties. She asks why Stevens, in his seventies, was drawn to a plainness of style not present in his first book, Harmonium (1923). Specific attention is paid to the following poems: "Bantams in Pine Woods," "To the One of Fictive Music," "Final Soliloquy of the Interior Paramour," and "Not Ideas about the Thing but the Thing Itself."

The poem is considered sequentially, beginning with Stevens's mythology of the three serpents in section one and concluding with an examination of the beauty of the world, as Stevens conceives of it, in sections eight through ten. The poet's optimism and fundamental belief in the power of imagination to divest death of its power is repeatedly demonstrated. The poem's final sections are shown to exemplify characteristically Stevensian conceptions of peace and happiness in the face of death.

Modern Poetry (ENGL 310) with Langdon Hammer
The late poetry of Wallace Stevens is presented and analyzed. Stevens's conception of the poet as reader and the world as a text to be read and translated is considered in "Large Red Man Reading" and "The Poem that Took the Place of a Mountain." The poet's preoccupation with natural cycles and sensory experience is exhibited in "The Plain Sense of Things." Finally, "A Primitive Like an Orb" is interpreted as Stevens's final vision of ceaseless change and transition in the world, in which the poet's verbal play participates.

One must have a mind of winter
To regard the frost and the boughs
Of the pine-trees crusted with snow;
And have been cold a long time
To behold the junipers shagged with ice,
The spruces rough in the distant glitter
Of the January sun; and not to think
Of any misery in the sound of the wind,
In the sound of a few leaves,
Which is the sound of the land
Full of the same wind
That is blowing in the same bare place
For the listener, who listens in the snow,
And, nothing himself, beholds
Nothing that is not there
and the nothing that is.

Here's a virtual movie of the celebrated American modernist poet Wallace Stevens reading my favourite of his poems. "Not Ideas About The Thing But The Thing Itself" This beautiful poem needs to be read in its text form for us to attempt to grasp at its somewhat obscure meaning.There are many lofty explanations around the internet,but to at least my simplistic way of thinking it likens the dawn with the the realization of reality,and like many a great poem the poems exact meaning is open to the interpretation of everyone that reads or hears it,but one thing is for sure this short somewhat perplexing poem is a thing of beauty.
Wallace Stevens (October 2, 1879 -- August 2, 1955) was an American Modernist poet. He was born in Reading, Pennsylvania, educated at Harvard and then New York Law School, and he spent most of his life working as an executive for an insurance company in Hartford, Connecticut. He won the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry for his Collected Poems in 1955.
Stevens is a rare example of a poet whose main output came at a fairly advanced age. His first major publication (four poems from a sequence entitled "Phases" in the November 1914 edition of Poetry Magazine)[22] was written at the age of thirty-five, although as an undergraduate at Harvard, Stevens had written poetry and exchanged sonnets with George Santayana, with whom he was close through much of his life. Many of his canonical works were written well after he turned fifty. According to the literary critic Harold Bloom, who called Stevens the "best and most representative" American poet of the time,[23] no Western writer since Sophocles has had such a late flowering of artistic genius. Vendler notes that there are three distinguishable moods present in Stevens' long poems: ecstasy, apathy, and reluctance between ecstasy and apathy.[24] She also notes that his poetry was highly influenced by the paintings of Paul Klee and Paul Cezanne:
Stevens saw in the paintings of both Paul Klee--who was his favorite painter--and Cezanne the kind of work he wanted to do himself as a Modernist poet. Klee had imagined symbols. Klee is not a directly realistic painter and is full of whimsical and fanciful and imaginative and humorous projections of reality in his paintings. The paintings are often enigmatic or full of riddles, and Stevens liked that as well. What Stevens liked in Cezanne was the reduction, you might say, of the world to a few monumental objects.[25]
Stevens's first book of poetry, a volume of rococo inventiveness titled Harmonium, was published in 1923. He produced two more major books of poetry during the 1920s and 1930s and three more in the 1940s. He received the annual National Book Award for Poetry twice, in 1951 for The Auroras of Autumn[26][27] and in 1955 for Collected Poems.

Not Ideas About The Thing But The Thing Itself
At the earliest ending of winter,
In March, a scrawny cry from outside
Seemed like a sound in his mind.
He knew that he heard it,
A bird's cry, at daylight or before,
In the early March wind.
The sun was rising at six,
No longer a battered panache above snow ...
It would have been outside.
It was not from the vast ventriloquism
Of sleep's faded papier-mache ...
The sun was coming from the outside.
That scrawny cry — It was
A chorister whose c preceded the choir.
It was part of the colossal sun,
Surrounded by its choral rings,
Still far away. It was like
A new knowledge of reality.

In this informal talk and audio presentation, Professor Helen Vendler reflects on what did and did not draw her to Wallace Stevens when she first encountered his work in her twenties. She asks why Stevens, in his seventies, was drawn to a plainness of style not present in his first book, Harmonium (1923). Specific attention is paid to the following poems: "Bantams in Pine Woods," "To the One of Fictive Music," "Final Soliloquy of the Interior Paramour," and "Not Ideas about the Thing but the Thing Itself."

19. Wallace Stevens
Modern Poetry (ENGL 310) with Langdon Hammer Wallace Stevens is considered as an unapologetically Romantic poet of imagination. His search for meaning in a universe without religion in "Sunday Morning" is likened to Crane's energetic quest for meaning and symbol. In "The Poems of Our Climate," Stevens's desire to reduce poetry to essential terms, and then his countering resistance to this impulse, are explored. Finally, "The Man on the Dump" is considered as a typically Stevensian search for truth in specifically linguistic terms. 00:00 - Chapter 1. Introduction: Wallace Stevens 09:22 - Chapter 2.

Wallace Stevens reads Final Soliloquy Of The Interior Paramour
Light the first light of evening, as in a room In which we rest and, for small reason, think The world imagined is the ultimate good. This is, therefore, the intensest rendezvous. It is in that thought that we collect ourselves, Out of all the indifferences, into one thing: Within a single thing, a single shawl Wrapped tightly round us, since we are poor, a warmth, A light, a power, the miraculous influence. Here, now, we forget each other and ourselves. We feel the obscurity of an order, a whole, A knowledge, that which arranged the rendezvous. Within its vital boundary, in the mind. We say God and the imagination are one... How high that highest candle lights the dark. Out of this same light, out of the central mind, We make a dwelling in the evening air, In wh...

20. Wallace Stevens (cont.)
Modern Poetry (ENGL 310) with Langdon Hammer Marie Borroff guest-lectures on Wallace Stevens's late seasonal poem, "The Auroras of Autumn."

Adlai Stevenson, former governor of Illinois and twice the Democratic candidate for the presidency of the United States, talks to Wallace about American politics, the difficulty in persuading good people to become involved in politics, diversity, elections, and the need for the average citizen to be involved in government.

Mike Wallace rose to prominence in 1956 with the New York City television interview program, Night-Beat, which soon developed into the nationally televised prime-time program, The Mike Wallace Interview.

Modern Poetry (ENGL 310) with Langdon Hammer
Wallace Stevens is considered as an unapologetically Romantic poet of imagination. His search for meaning in a universe without religion in "Sunday Morning" is likened to Crane's energetic quest for meaning and symbol. In "The Poems of Our Climate," Stevens's desire to reduce poetry to essential terms, and then his countering resistance to this impulse, are explored. Finally, "The Man on the Dump" is considered as a typically Stevensian search for truth in specifically linguistic terms.

Light the first light of evening, as in a room
In which we rest and, for small reason, think
The world imagined is the ultimate good.
This is, therefore, the intensest rendezvous.
It is in that thought that we collect ourselves,
Out of all the indifferences, into one thing:
Within a single thing, a single shawl
Wrapped tightly round us, since we are poor, a warmth,
A light, a power, the miraculous influence.
Here, now, we forget each other and ourselves.
We feel the obscurity of an order, a whole,
A knowledge, that which arranged the rendezvous.
Within its vital boundary, in the mind.
We say God and the imagination are one...
How high that highest candle lights the dark.
Out of this same light, out of the central mind,
We make a dwelling in the evening air,
In which being there together is enough.

Modern Poetry (ENGL 310) with Langdon Hammer
Marie Borroff guest-lectures on Wallace Stevens's late seasonal poem, "The Auroras of Autumn." The poem is considered sequentially, beginning with Stevens's mythology of the three serpents in section one and concluding with an examination of the beauty of the world, as Stevens conceives of it, in sections eight through ten. The poet's optimism and fundamental belief in the power of imagination to divest death of its power is repeatedly demonstrated. The poem's final sections are shown to exemplify characteristically Stevensian conceptions of peace and happiness in the face of death.

20. Wallace Stevens (cont.)
Modern Poetry (ENGL 310) with Langdon Hammer Marie Borroff guest-lectures on Wallace Stevens's late seasonal poem, "The Auroras of Autumn." The poem is considered sequentially, beginning with Stevens's mythology of the three serpents in section one and concluding with an examination of the beauty of the world, as Stevens conceives of it, in sections eight through ten. The poet's optimism and fundamental belief in the power of imagination to divest death of its power is repeatedly demonstrated.

The Snow Man by Wallace Stevens (read by Tom O'Bedlam)
It's a single sentence. The pictures are hi-res wallpapers from here:: http://www.winwallpapers.net/ One must have a mind of winter To regard the frost and the boughs Of the pine-trees crusted with snow; And have been cold a long time To behold the junipers shagged with ice, The spruces rough in the distant glitter Of the January sun; and not to think Of any misery in the sound of the wind, In the sound of a few leaves, Which is the sound of the land Full of the same wind That is blowing in the same bare place For the listener, who listens in the snow, And, nothing himself, beholds Nothing that is not there and the nothing that is.

Wallace Stevens "Not ideas about the thing, but the thing itself" Poem animation
Here's a virtual movie of the celebrated American modernist poet Wallace Stevens reading my favourite of his poems. "Not Ideas About The Thing But The Thing Itself" This beautiful poem needs to be read in its text form for us to attempt to grasp at its somewhat obscure meaning.There are many lofty explanations around the internet,but to at least my simplistic way of thinking it likens the dawn with the the realization of reality,and like many a great poem the poems exact meaning is open to the interpretation of everyone that reads or hears it,but one thing is for sure this short somewhat perplexing poem is a thing of beauty. Wallace Stevens (October 2, 1879 -- August 2, 1955) was an American Modernist poet. He was born in Reading, Pennsylvania, educated at Harvard and then New York Law S...

REEL TIME: Helen Vendler on the Recordings of Wallace Stevens - Woodberry Poetry Room
In this informal talk and audio presentation, Professor Helen Vendler reflects on what did and did not draw her to Wallace Stevens when she first encountered his work in her twenties. She asks why Stevens, in his seventies, was drawn to a plainness of style not present in his first book, Harmonium (1923). Specific attention is paid to the following poems: "Bantams in Pine Woods," "To the One of Fictive Music," "Final Soliloquy of the Interior Paramour," and "Not Ideas about the Thing but the Thing Itself."

Modern Poetry (ENGL 310) with Langdon Hammer
Wallace Stevens is considered as an unapologetically Romantic poet of imagination. His search for meaning in a universe without religion in "Sunday Morning" is likened to Crane's energetic quest for meaning and symbol. In "The Poems of Our Climate," Stevens's desire to reduce poetry to essential terms, and then his countering resistance to this impulse, are explored. Finally, "The Man on the Dump" is considered as a typically Stevensian search for truth in specifically linguistic terms.

The poem is considered sequentially, beginning with Stevens's mythology of the three serpents in section one and concluding with an examination of the beauty of the world, as Stevens conceives of it, in sections eight through ten. The poet's optimism and fundamental belief in the power of imagination to divest death of its power is repeatedly demonstrated. The poem's final sections are shown to exemplify characteristically Stevensian conceptions of peace and happiness in the face of death.

Modern Poetry (ENGL 310) with Langdon Hammer
The late poetry of Wallace Stevens is presented and analyzed. Stevens's conception of the poet as reader and the world as a text to be read and translated is considered in "Large Red Man Reading" and "The Poem that Took the Place of a Mountain." The poet's preoccupation with natural cycles and sensory experience is exhibited in "The Plain Sense of Things." Finally, "A Primitive Like an Orb" is interpreted as Stevens's final vision of ceaseless change and transition in the world, in which the poet's verbal play participates.

One must have a mind of winter
To regard the frost and the boughs
Of the pine-trees crusted with snow;
And have been cold a long time
To behold the junipers shagged with ice,
The spruces rough in the distant glitter
Of the January sun; and not to think
Of any misery in the sound of the wind,
In the sound of a few leaves,
Which is the sound of the land
Full of the same wind
That is blowing in the same bare place
For the listener, who listens in the snow,
And, nothing himself, beholds
Nothing that is not there
and the nothing that is.

Here's a virtual movie of the celebrated American modernist poet Wallace Stevens reading my favourite of his poems. "Not Ideas About The Thing But The Thing Itself" This beautiful poem needs to be read in its text form for us to attempt to grasp at its somewhat obscure meaning.There are many lofty explanations around the internet,but to at least my simplistic way of thinking it likens the dawn with the the realization of reality,and like many a great poem the poems exact meaning is open to the interpretation of everyone that reads or hears it,but one thing is for sure this short somewhat perplexing poem is a thing of beauty.
Wallace Stevens (October 2, 1879 -- August 2, 1955) was an American Modernist poet. He was born in Reading, Pennsylvania, educated at Harvard and then New York Law School, and he spent most of his life working as an executive for an insurance company in Hartford, Connecticut. He won the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry for his Collected Poems in 1955.
Stevens is a rare example of a poet whose main output came at a fairly advanced age. His first major publication (four poems from a sequence entitled "Phases" in the November 1914 edition of Poetry Magazine)[22] was written at the age of thirty-five, although as an undergraduate at Harvard, Stevens had written poetry and exchanged sonnets with George Santayana, with whom he was close through much of his life. Many of his canonical works were written well after he turned fifty. According to the literary critic Harold Bloom, who called Stevens the "best and most representative" American poet of the time,[23] no Western writer since Sophocles has had such a late flowering of artistic genius. Vendler notes that there are three distinguishable moods present in Stevens' long poems: ecstasy, apathy, and reluctance between ecstasy and apathy.[24] She also notes that his poetry was highly influenced by the paintings of Paul Klee and Paul Cezanne:
Stevens saw in the paintings of both Paul Klee--who was his favorite painter--and Cezanne the kind of work he wanted to do himself as a Modernist poet. Klee had imagined symbols. Klee is not a directly realistic painter and is full of whimsical and fanciful and imaginative and humorous projections of reality in his paintings. The paintings are often enigmatic or full of riddles, and Stevens liked that as well. What Stevens liked in Cezanne was the reduction, you might say, of the world to a few monumental objects.[25]
Stevens's first book of poetry, a volume of rococo inventiveness titled Harmonium, was published in 1923. He produced two more major books of poetry during the 1920s and 1930s and three more in the 1940s. He received the annual National Book Award for Poetry twice, in 1951 for The Auroras of Autumn[26][27] and in 1955 for Collected Poems.

Not Ideas About The Thing But The Thing Itself
At the earliest ending of winter,
In March, a scrawny cry from outside
Seemed like a sound in his mind.
He knew that he heard it,
A bird's cry, at daylight or before,
In the early March wind.
The sun was rising at six,
No longer a battered panache above snow ...
It would have been outside.
It was not from the vast ventriloquism
Of sleep's faded papier-mache ...
The sun was coming from the outside.
That scrawny cry — It was
A chorister whose c preceded the choir.
It was part of the colossal sun,
Surrounded by its choral rings,
Still far away. It was like
A new knowledge of reality.

In this informal talk and audio presentation, Professor Helen Vendler reflects on what did and did not draw her to Wallace Stevens when she first encountered his work in her twenties. She asks why Stevens, in his seventies, was drawn to a plainness of style not present in his first book, Harmonium (1923). Specific attention is paid to the following poems: "Bantams in Pine Woods," "To the One of Fictive Music," "Final Soliloquy of the Interior Paramour," and "Not Ideas about the Thing but the Thing Itself."

19. Wallace Stevens
Modern Poetry (ENGL 310) with Langdon Hammer Wallace Stevens is considered as an unapologetically Romantic poet of imagination. His search for meaning in a universe without religion in "Sunday Morning" is likened to Crane's energetic quest for meaning and symbol. In "The Poems of Our Climate," Stevens's desire to reduce poetry to essential terms, and then his countering resistance to this impulse, are explored. Finally, "The Man on the Dump" is considered as a typically Stevensian search for truth in specifically linguistic terms. 00:00 - Chapter 1. Introduction: Wallace Stevens 09:22 - Chapter 2.

Modern Poetry (ENGL 310) with Langdon Hammer Marie Borroff guest-lectures on Wallace Stevens's late seasonal poem, "The Auroras of Autumn." The poem is considered sequentially, beginning with Stevens's mythology of the three serpents in section one and concluding with an examination of the beauty of the world, as Stevens conceives of it, in sections eight through ten. The poet's optimism and fundamental belief in the power of imagination to divest death of its power is repeatedly demonstrated. The poem's final sections are shown to exemplify characteristically Stevensian conceptions of peace and happiness in the face of death. 00:00 - Chapter 1. Introduction 02:10 - Chapter 2.

How Visual Evidence and Visual Storytelling Are Changing the Practice of Law
Professor Richard K. Sherwin, Wallace Stevens Professor of Law, Dean for Faculty Scholarship, Director, The Visual Persuasion Project, New York Law School, spoke about 'Visual Literacy for Lawyers: How Visual Evidence and Visual Storytelling Are Changing the Practice of Law in the Digital Age' on 26 April 2016 as a guest of the Fitzwilliam College Law Society. In contemporary legal practice, lawyers, judges, and lay jurors face a vast array of visual evidence and visual argument both inside the courtroom and in the court of public opinion. From videos documenting crimes and accidents to computer displays of their digital simulation, increasingly, the search for fact-based justice is becoming an offshoot of visual meaning making. But when law migrates to the screen it lives there as other...

Wallace Stevens
Wallace Stevens was an American Modernist poet. He was born in Reading, Pennsylvania, educated at Harvard and then New York Law School, and he spent most of his life working as an executive for an insurance company in Hartford, Connecticut. He won the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry for his Collected Poems in 1955. Some of his best-known poems include "Anecdote of the Jar," "Disillusionment of Ten O'Clock," "The Emperor of Ice-Cream," "The Idea of Order at Key West," "Sunday Morning," "The Snow Man," and "Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Blackbird."

The Emperor of Ice Cream: The Life and Poetry of Wallace Stevens
This is a recording from Apocatastasis’ second Midsummer Conference, “The Emperor of Ice Cream: The Life and Poetry of Wallace Stevens.” Stevens was master of Modernist poetry who lived for many years in Hartford, CT. What makes him peculiar is at once his outward “boringness” and his vivid inner life as revealed in his poetry. I explore the juxtaposition of Victorian and Modernist poetry, the influence of transportation and the First World War on people’s worldview, Stevens’ dabbling in political poems, his search for meaning and connection in an alienated world, his closing years of relative fame, and his death and conversion.

Modern Poetry (ENGL 310) with Langdon Hammer
Wallace Stevens is considered as an unapologetically Romantic poet of imagination. His search for meaning in a universe without religion in "Sunday Morning" is likened to Crane's energetic quest for meaning and symbol. In "The Poems of Our Climate," Stevens's desire to reduce poetry to essential terms, and then his countering resistance to this impulse, are explored. Finally, "The Man on the Dump" is considered as a typically Stevensian search for truth in specifically linguistic terms.

January 17, 2012 - Helen Vendler, one of the leading American poetry critics, as well as a distinguished professor in Harvard University's Department of English, discusses Wallace Stevens, the poet. She dives into some of his work in order to show why he is one of the finest American poets to set ink to paper. Wallace Stevens was born in 1879 and died in 1955 and was awarded a Pulitzer prize that same year.

Modern Poetry (ENGL 310) with Langdon Hammer
Marie Borroff guest-lectures on Wallace Stevens's late seasonal poem, "The Auroras of Autumn." The poem is considered sequentially, beginning with Stevens's mythology of the three serpents in section one and concluding with an examination of the beauty of the world, as Stevens conceives of it, in sections eight through ten. The poet's optimism and fundamental belief in the power of imagination to divest death of its power is repeatedly demonstrated. The poem's final sections are shown to exemplify characteristically Stevensian conceptions of peace and happiness in the face of death.

Modern Poetry (ENGL 310) with Langdon Hammer
The late poetry of Wallace Stevens is presented and analyzed. Stevens's conception of the poet as reader and the world as a text to be read and translated is considered in "Large Red Man Reading" and "The Poem that Took the Place of a Mountain." The poet's preoccupation with natural cycles and sensory experience is exhibited in "The Plain Sense of Things." Finally, "A Primitive Like an Orb" is interpreted as Stevens's final vision of ceaseless change and transition in the world, in which the poet's verbal play participates.

In this informal talk and audio presentation, Professor Helen Vendler reflects on what did and did not draw her to Wallace Stevens when she first encountered his work in her twenties. She asks why Stevens, in his seventies, was drawn to a plainness of style not present in his first book, Harmonium (1923). Specific attention is paid to the following poems: "Bantams in Pine Woods," "To the One of Fictive Music," "Final Soliloquy of the Interior Paramour," and "Not Ideas about the Thing but the Thing Itself."

Professor Richard K. Sherwin, Wallace Stevens Professor of Law, Dean for Faculty Scholarship, Director, The Visual Persuasion Project, New York Law School, spoke about 'Visual Literacy for Lawyers: How Visual Evidence and Visual Storytelling Are Changing the Practice of Law in the Digital Age' on 26 April 2016 as a guest of the Fitzwilliam College Law Society.
In contemporary legal practice, lawyers, judges, and lay jurors face a vast array of visual evidence and visual argument both inside the courtroom and in the court of public opinion. From videos documenting crimes and accidents to computer displays of their digital simulation, increasingly, the search for fact-based justice is becoming an offshoot of visual meaning making. But when law migrates to the screen it lives there as other images do, motivating belief and judgment on the basis of visual delight and unconscious fantasies and desires as well as actualities. In this presentation, I address what it means for jurists to develop a workable visual jurisprudence. I offer two different epistemological models for warranting visual belief. In one model, images serve as copies of an original; in the second model, images operate as event (as performative interaction rather than imitative fact). With this framework in place, we may begin to explore diverse criteria for visual credibility ranging from empirical measurements of truth as ‘correctness’ to the aesthetics of ‘delight’ and the experience of visual ‘presence’ (the visual sublime).

Some of his best-known poems include "Anecdote of the Jar," "Disillusionment of Ten O'Clock," "The Emperor of Ice-Cream," "The Idea of Order at Key West," "Sunday Morning," "The Snow Man," and "Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Blackbird."

This is a recording from Apocatastasis’ second Midsummer Conference, “The Emperor of Ice Cream: The Life and Poetry of Wallace Stevens.” Stevens was master of Modernist poetry who lived for many years in Hartford, CT. What makes him peculiar is at once his outward “boringness” and his vivid inner life as revealed in his poetry. I explore the juxtaposition of Victorian and Modernist poetry, the influence of transportation and the First World War on people’s worldview, Stevens’ dabbling in political poems, his search for meaning and connection in an alienated world, his closing years of relative fame, and his death and conversion.

Wallace Stevens, Vic Chesnutt
Wallace Stevens
i saw a blackbird
thirteen ways
then strew a fist many
mountains away
my evangelism felled
brutally taken
by breezes that rubbed me
and lifted light raven
i stretched to borrow
fine antebelleum
to encase all the scrapings
of us civilised fellow
i wanted to stash them
to secretive cages
with that fabulous blackbird
