Extractions: Denise Levertov was on October 24, 1923 In Ilford, Essex, England. She came to the United States in 1948 and became a naturalized citizen in 1956. She decided she wanted to be a writer at age 5. At the age of 12, she sent some of her poetry to T.S. Eliot. In response she received two pages of "excellent advice" encouraging her to continue writing. Poetry Quarterly published her at 17. Levertov felt college didn't agree with her, and decided in- stead to train as a nurse, and she spent three years in London, rehabbing war veterans in WWII. Every night after she shift, she would write. Her first book, The Double Image , was published in 1946. Jean Gould, author of Modern American Women Poets, wrote of this book, "The young poet possessed a strong social con- sciousness andÉ showed indications of the militant pacifist she was to become." By 1948, Levertov had married Mitchell Goodman, and writ- ten her second book of poetry, Here and Now , which showed her new, more American voice. Kenneth Rexroth said of her after this second book, "The Schwärmerei and lassitude are gone. Their place has been taken by a kind of animal grace of the word, pulse like the foot falls of a cat of the wingbeats of a gull. It is the intense aliveness of an alert domestic love - the wedding of form and content."

Extractions: Denise Levertov was born in England in the fall of 1923. Her mother read her poetry when she was younger and at the age of 12, she wrote a letter to T. S. Elliot. In response she got two pages of "excellent advice" encouraging her to continue writing. She was published in Poetry Quarterly at the age of 17. Denise Levertov felt college didn't agree with her, and decided instead to train as a nurse, and she spent three years in London, rehabbing war veterans in W.W.II. Every night after she shift, she would write. Her first book, The Double Image, was published in 1946. By 1948, Levertov had married Mitchell Goodman, and written her second book of poetry, Here and Now, which showed her new, more American voice. Her next book, With Eyes at the Back of our Heads, established her as one of the great American poets, and her British origins were forgotten by the reading public. She soon became heavily influenced by the Black Mountain Poets, the trio of Robert Duncan, Charles Olson, and Robert Creeley, who had formed a short-lived, but groundbreaking school in 1933 in North Carolina. Her work was published in the 1950s in the Black Mountain Review. After hearing Ginsberg's Howl, Levertov traveled to San Francisco. There she caught up with the anti war movement going on, and her involvement in protests landed her in jail. To this day, she still demonstrates against nuclear arms. At this time, some critics began to shun her political poetry, demanding a separation in her work.

Although she was born in Europe, Levertov eventually became a naturalized citizen and a well known and respected American poet whose style has been described by some as "deceptively matter-of-fact". Her concerns with social issues and her inclination towards humanitarianism are qualities that acquaint her with the Beat movement. Levertov served as a civilian nurse during World War II in London during the bombings. She eventually moved to New York with her husband in 1947 and became a naturalized citizen in 1955.

http://www.english.upenn.edu/~afilreis/88/levertov-obit.html

Extractions: SEATTLE (AP) Denise Levertov, a major American poet who took up such social and political issues as the Vietnam War and the trial of Nazi war criminal Adolf Eichmann, has died at 74. Levertov died Saturday at Swedish Hospital from complications of lymphoma. Influenced by William Carlos Williams and other American poets, Levertov's style evolved from traditional English to free-form. She addressed political and social themes, such as war, the environment and feminism, in an intense, lyrical voice. "She had this sort of singular and pure commitment of the kind I've never known of. She had this tenderness and kindness to animals and children, and she had this very strong attachment to nature," said Barbara Epler, Levertov's editor since the mid-1980s at New Directions, her longtime publisher. "She was really socially committed. It was important to her to go and protest at nuclear sites," she said. "She also protested the Vietnam War. She really put her money where her mouth was. It's like she was very 19th century with her vision of what poetry was and how total a calling it was."

http://www.english.uiuc.edu/maps/poets/g_l/levertov/life.htm

Extractions: Denise Levertov's Life and Career Joan F. Hallisey D Levertov lived in Somerville, Massachusetts, for a number of years while teaching at Brandeis, MIT, and Tufts. She moved to Seattle in 1989 and settled close to Lake Washington in the shadow of Mt. Rainier. She taught part-time at the University of Washington and continued as a full professor at Stanford University for the first quarter of each year as she had been doing since 1982. She brought her own distinctive spirit and goals to the English Department, especially to her students in the Creative Writing program. After her retirement from Stanford in 1993, she did several benefits and poetry readings a year in both the United States and Europe. She endeavored, in spite of declining health, to keep up her correspondence with other poets and her many friends. She died of complications due to lymphoma on December 20, 1997. Levertov strongly believed that inherited tendencies and the cultural ambiance of her own family were strong factors in her own development as a person and as a poet. She tells us in The Poet in the World that she believes her early poem "Illustrious Ancestors" reveals a "definite and peculiar destiny" she and her sister Olga shared by having among their ancestors two men who were living during the same period (late 1700s and 1800s) but in very different cultures. They had "preoccupations which gave them a basic kinship had they known one another and had [they] been able to cross the barriers of religious prejudice" (70).

Extractions: Pronunciation Key Levertov, Denise , Anglo-American poet, b. Ilford, England. Educated in England, she came to the United States in 1948. Her spare, emotional poems hint at an intuitive order behind the apparent chaos in modern life. Her later work is marked by an awareness of issues concerning women. Collections of her poetry include The Double Image Here and Now The Sorrow Dance Relearning the Alphabet Footprints: Poems Oblique Players (1984), and A Door in the Hive (1989). An essayist and translator, she also was a political activist. See studies by L. Wagner (1967) and H. Marten (1989).

Read a speech prepared by the American poet in 1972 and then rejected by the networks for its strong views on the Vietnam war. Statement For A Television Program. by denise levertov. American Poet
http://gos.sbc.edu/l/levertov2.html

Extractions: American Poet May The following statement was written in response to an invitation to "comment on any topic, e.g., poetry, women, the war," on a program taped weekly by a major TV network (NBC). I could not in these times choose any "topic" but the war; however, my text (which had to be submitted a week before being tapedand which was written during the interval between Nixon's two televised speeches in May 1972was rejected). "I feel," wrote the producer, "that, deep as my own emotions are about this futile war, it would be inappropriate for me to use it at this time. My decision is shaped not by your pieceyou write so very movinglybut by the number of Vietnam statements we have already had on the program. They cover a wide range of attitudes and angles, and with them I effected a coverage and balance which I think best to let stand." It seems to me that a "balanced" view of genocide and of actions which are leading directly toward the extinction of life on earth is itself a kind of insanity. It is evident, moreover, that a program that first invites people to speak on whatever they feel it is important to say, and then rejects their words in the name of "balanced coverage," is a little short on sincerity. Here is my statement: I have been asked to speak on this program because I am a poet. One of the obligations of the writer, and perhaps especially of the poet, is to say or sing
