Hardcover. Condición: Good. No Jacket. Karl Shapiro's "Essay on Rime" is a brilliant essay on poetry written in verse. TITLE : Essay on Rime / AUTHOR : Karl Shapiro (1913 - 2000) / IMPRINT : Reynal & Hitchcock / PLACE : New York / DATE : (1945) / EDITION : Third Printing / STATUS : OP . Reynal & Hitchcock are no longer in business. / PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: Trade hardcover; 72 pages; approximately 5 1/2" x 8" (octavo); beige cloth with title, etc. in black and red on spine and front ********************************************** CONDITION - GOOD - This is a previously owed book which remains clean and serviceable with the following particulars noted: SPINE : The most egregious imperfection displays at the head: two small splits to the head, with accompanying fraying and slight loss of material -- foot is compressed and displays a definite slant - slight darkening of cloth - title displays clearly; text-block edges re clean. / BOARDS : FRONT -- Light smudging - near-negligible weathering along fore-edge / REAR -- Smudging, weathering and surface abrasion a bit more pronounced / BINDING : Solid / END PAPERS : There is a sticker ghost on front paste-down - this ghost also has a tiny bit of surface loss -- else clear . / INTERIOR : Clean and presentable with no writing, marginalia, or underlining. / DUST JACKET : Not present ******************************************************* Excerpted from "Essay on Rime" : The Rhetoric of Rime in "Ulysses" Lines 1037 - 1054 : Here we return to Joyce, the modern Lyly / To some, to others the mighty sphinx of words. / To him we put the question: Do you proceed / from rime to prose or prose to rime or both? / The riddle I believe is just; whoever / Sees in Ulysses willy-nilly form / Has not coped with the book as composition. / The poet takes every measurement of a word, / Weight, sound and size, before setting it in / its preordained position in the line. / The novelist works in larger scale; the mass / To him is greater than the particle; / Nor does he dare, for fear of interrupting / The narrative momentum, to attract / The eye upon a snag of rhetoric. / Joyce measures every inch; each line can pass, / By virtue of its word-by-word impact, / As poetry of the highest skill. / *************************************************** ANOTHER EXCERPT : The Darwinian Poet Lines 1570 - 1089 / One wonders what the youth of Darwin's day / Felt at his dread conclusion that the mind / Of God-created man differs from that / Of the Quadrumana only in degree / And not in kind. I daresay he fell mute, / Though possibly he merely yawned; the world / Had come that distance from the sphere of faith / Before the evolutionist; some despaired, / Some paid no heed, but the significant / Un art caught the Spencerian contagion / And prophesied the new and perfect man. / Nor can it be denied that man in spirit / Had suffered a traumatic shock. / The organic chain of human breeding-stock / Saw the last mystery dispelled. The eye / Appraised the man as beast, the beast as man, / Sometimes with preference for the lower form. / There is a passage in The Descent of Man / Which matches in distemper Whitman's cry / I think I could turn and live with animals.

Soft cover. Condición: Very Good. 1st Edition. This is "Randall Jarrell" by Karl Shapiro. That's one great poet being talked about by another Great poet. The book, a 47 page pamphlet, is the published form of a Lecture presented under the auspices of the Gertrude Clarke Whittall Poetry and Literature Fund, and published for The Library of Congress. The book was issued with a bibliography of Jarrell materials in the collections of the library of Congress. ******************************************** Randall Jarrell (1914 - 1965), was one of twentieth century America's most prominent poets. Jarrell, a poet largely influenced by Walt Whitman, Marianne Moore, and Wallace Stevens , among others, was honored with the National Book Award. Ironically, he is particularly remembered for his satiric novel, "Pictures From an Institution". His poetry will long be read and anthologized. ****************************************** Karl Shapiro (1813 - 2000), another prominent American poet, was once the Poet Laureate Consultant to the Library of congress. He was honored with a Pulitzer Prize for Poetry in 1945, and the Bollingen Prize for Poetry in 1969. Aside from his collected poetry, Shapiro is known for his book, "Essay on Rime", which is Presented in verse format. Randall Jarrell praised Shapiro's poetry, saying : "Karl Shapiro's poems are fresh and young and rash and live; their hard clear outlines, their flat bold colors create a world like that of a knowing and skillful neoprimitive painting, without any of the confusion or profundity of atmosphere, of aerial perspective, but with notable visual and satiric force. The poet early perfected a style, derived from Auden but decidedly individual, which he has not developed in later life but has temporarily replaced with the clear Rilke-like rhetoric of his Adam and Eve poems, the frankly Whitmanesque convolutions of his latest work." ******************************************** In this LOC booklet, Shapiro returns the compliment - in spades. The book starts : "This lecture is not a eulogy, not a memorial, not one of those exercises in objective perception of value for which the age of criticism is justly infamous. Randall Jarrell was not my friend; nor was he my enemy. But he was the poet whose poetry I admired and looked up to most after William Carlos Williams.This I said many times in many ways in my criticism. I praised his poetry more, and more wholeheartedly, than any other of his contemporaries." The lecture is well worth reading. ***************************************** SERIES : Auspices of the Gertrude Clarke Whittall Poetry and Literature Fund / TITLE : Randall Jarrell / AUTHOR : Karl Shapiro / IMPRINT : Library of Congress / PLACE : Washington DC / DATE : 1967 / STATUS: First Edition / SPECIAL ATTRIBUTES : Contains a Bibliography of Works on and by Jarrell, held by the LOC, and prepared by the General Reference and Bibliography Division and Manuscript Division, Reference Department. / STATUS : OP / DETAILS ; Slim pamphlet; 47 pages; 5 13/16" x 9 1/8"; brown stapled pamphlet with picture of Jarrell and lettering stamped in white on front cover.

Text-block edges are toned, else clean. / BINDING -- Solid / INTERIOR -- Paper is lightly toned, else all is clean and free of marking.

Condición: Very good. - Twelve lines of poetry typed on a 5-3/4 inch high by 5-3/8 inch wide sheet of cream-colored paper. Signed below the poem in blue ink "Karl Shapiro". Folded once for mailing. Very good. The poem "Contraband" opens: "I dreamed I held a poem and knew / The capture of a living thing."Karl Shapiro [1913-2000] attended the University of Virginia which he immortalized in a scathing poem called "The University", in which he noted that "to hurt the Negro and avoid the Jew is the curriculum". During World War II, while serving in the Pacific Theatre, Shapiro wrote the poems collected in "V-Letter and Other Poems" which was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry in 1945. He was American Poet Laureate in 1946 and 1947. He was also awarded the Bollingen Prize in Poetry in 1969.

[Malvern East, Vic.] : Comment Publication, 1942. Octavo, publisher's printed grey wrappers green lettering (a few light marks; spine and top edge of lower wrapper sunned), 78 pp, printed in black and green ink, inside wrappers each with a narrow residual paper strip from a label, the half-title with mild off-setting from one of these; internally clean and sound, a very good copy. Cecily Crozier's self-published Melbourne journal Comment ran for several years from 1940 and was dedicated to the promotion of innovative writing and design. This was the second published volume of poems by American writer Karl Shapiro, stationed in Australia as a U.S. serviceman during World War Two. At the time of publication, Crozier and Shapiro were in the midst of an affair, and the connectiing passages between the poems are in fact extracts from their love letters.

Librería: Richard M. Ford Ltd, London, Reino Unido
Manuscrito
An interesting communication from one noted twentieth-century English-language poet to another, and of additional significance as a V-Letter written in the year of publication of Shapiro's first successful collection, the Pulitzer Prize winning 'V-Letter and Other Poems' (1944). (See Diederik Oostdijk, 'The Wartime Success of Karl Shapiro's V-Letter' (2006).) The present item is a V-Mail [Victory Mail] letter: a 13.5 x 11 cm photograph print of an autograph letter bearing the censor's stamp. (At the time of writing Shapiro was on active service.) In fair condition, lightly aged and folded once. The V-mail process would have ensured that the original letter was destroyed: the present document is therefore the only surviving version of the text. Addressed to 'Mr George Barker | c/o New Directions | Norfolk, Connecticut | U.S.A.' Dated February 1944. The address is in parts hard to read: 'Sgt. Karl Shapiro | 33006969 | [13th Port. Sang.?] Hosp. | [APD 928 c/o Pan?] | San Francisco'. Shapiro begins the letter: 'Dear Mr. Barker. The letter I wrote you several days ago if you have received it must have seemed rather wild and whirling.' He feels that he should tell Barker that he was 'recovering from a malaria attack at the time', and that his 'thoughts were disarranged' and his 'perspective abnormal'. Now that he is better he would like to say 'in sober language that the Elegies [Rilke's Duino Elegies?] are a boon to us who are readers and writers, and do me a a bucket of cold water in the face'. 'War Poetry' on the other hand has been 'a deadly disappointment' to Shapiro: 'all ex post facto experience and birds on singing-trees'. It seems to him that Barker alone has 'escaped the bogs of Language and [Fame?], but more than that. Rilke's task of not-understanding the other war, although not evasion, was inapplicable to the soldier's case.' Barker has 'earned [his] way to the heart of the war like the Four Hundred'. The letter concludes: 'I merely want to add my praise to all those other praises you have won.'.
