Extractions: Kenneth Rexroth (1905-1982) was a poet and essayist, an influence on the spread of Beat poetry (though not a Beat himself), and a student of languages. His translations of Chinese and Japanese poetry make many beautiful poems accessible to those of us who only know English. In a series of short essays, he reviewed the classics of world literature from his perspective, which valued art for its involvement with living human beings. In 1985 and 1989, New Directions published 101 of these essays in two paperback volumes, titled Classics Revisited (NDP621, ISBN 0-8112-0988-1) and More Classics Revisited (NDP668, ISBN 0-8112-1083-9). They can be hard to find. Amazon.com claims to have them. If all else fails, bug the publisher: New York, NY 10011 In my opinion, publishers of the works that Rexroth recommends should subsidize these two books, and give them away free. And put them on the Web. Some of Rexroth's recommendations include all or most of an author's works; read the essays for details. Some of these works are available in multiple editions or translations, not all of which Rexroth specified. Some are difficult to find. Many should be available in a public domain form, and would make good content for some ambitious hyper-etext project. Rexroth's essays are fascinating, and the reading list

Extractions: Kenneth Rexroth Outfield An organizer of the infamous Six Gallery poetry reading of October 13, 1955. He has been described as "a middle-aged Chicago poet transplanted to San Francisco, where he held a salon for anarchists and maverick writers. Beloved as a 'hip square'. " Rexroth became involved with the Beat writers in the middle fifties. According to one of Kerouac's biographers, at a 1956 party, Kerouac made a drunken pass at one of Rexroth's daughter. This, needless to say soured their relationship. In 1959, Rexroth wrote an unfavorable review of Kerouac's Mexico City Blues. In Kerouac's Dharma Bums , Rexroth is Rheinhold Cacoethes.

He was born in South Bend, Indiana in 1905 and died on June 6, 1982 in Montecito, California. In addition to being a writer, translator, essayist and philosopher, Rexroth also helped found the San Francisco Poetry Center. He received the California Literature Silver Medal Award in 1941 for his book, In What Hour Rexroth became a prolific painter and poet by the age of seventeen. He soon gained reputation as a radical by associating with various labor groups and political anarchists. When the second renaissance of the 1920's occurred in Chicago, Rexroth was there. He later became involved in the Beat movement, attempting to elevate common consciousness. He was later given the title, "Godfather of the Beats" because of his involvement with the readings and events at the Cellar jazz club. Rexroth's influence and talents were actually greater than the Beat movement itself. He was perceived by critics as more than just another West Coast anarchist poet. "He is a man of wide cultivation and, when not too busy shocking the bourgeois reader...a genuine poet", said a critic by the name of Rosenthal. A critic named Gibson observed of his book

http://www.beatmuseum.org/rexroth/kennethrexroth.html

Extractions: Place of Death: Montecito, California Kenneth Rexroth was not a Beat poet. He led his own earlier cultural movement in San Francisco, inventing the idea of the Northern California city as a culturally 'happening' place. Before Allen Ginsberg arrived at Rexroth's doorstep in 1953 with a letter of introduction from William Carlos Williams, Rexroth had already gathered together several young poets who would soon participate in the Bay Area Beat scene, particularly Gary Snyder Michael McClure and Philip Whalen In this role as the master of the city's poets, he presided over the introduction of the Beat Generation to the world in the mid-to-late fifties, risking his name and reputation on the unconventional young upstarts, and organizing the Six Gallery poetry reading that caused a literary sensation in 1955. According to some biographical material, Rexroth later grew slightly irritated as the Beats began to reach immense fame, often offending his sensitive poetic ideals with their crazy hijinks. But this is typical old-guard vs. new-guard stuff. Rexroth was an important poet in his own scene, and deserves our eternal appreciation for having invented the idea of San Francisco as a center of literary innovation. Michael Blackstone has created a page about Rexroth.

Extractions: Died: June 6, 1982, Montecito, California Of all the beats, Rexroth was one of the most politicala leftist who helped organize maritime unions in the 1920s. He also objected to World War II. It was poet William Everson who termed Kenneth: "Rexroth: Shaker and Maker." His poetry reflects his stances on capitalism, and caught the eye of other beats such as Ginsberg and Snyder. His poem "Thou Shalt Not Kill," a few lines of which are extracted above, was a tribute to Dylan Thomas. Besides politics, Rexroth was also into Asian literature and philosophy, which came through in his poetry.

Born in 1905 in South Bend, Indiana, he was educated mainly by his parents. As a young man he was a wanderer who sometimes worked as a casual labourer. Later on he became a political radical, and associated with various leftist and avant-garde movements. His work was closely associated with the Beat generation of the 1950s. He was San Francisco correspondent of The Nation from 1953 to 1968, and a columnist of San Francisco Examiner from 1960 to 1968. Apart from writing poetry, Kenneth Rexroth was also known as a painter. As a literary translator he rendered into English poetry written in French, Spanish, and Greek. He is well known for his translations of classical and modern Chinese and Japanese poetry. He co-translated with Chung Ling works of Chinese women poets, which are published in Orchid Boat: Woman Poets of China. He died in 1982. It is a well known fact that the Anglo-American new poetics of the first half of the 20 th century drew upon translations from Asia as an important source of inspiration. Rexroth¡¦s interest in Chinese and Japanese poetry is therefore very much part of the modern American poetic tradition.

Extractions: Visit the general discussion board or view list of boards Kenneth Rexroth was born on December 22, 1905 in South Bend, Indiana. He was integral to the emergence of the Beat poets, but did not consider himself a member of this younger group himself. Rexroth had already led his own earlier cultural movement, a much publicized "poetry renaissance" in San Francisco , which helped to promote the idea of the Northern California city as a culturally 'happening' place. By the time Allen Ginsberg arrived at Rexroth's doorstep in 1953 with a letter of introduction from William Carlos Williams , the San Francisco Poetry Renaissance was already an established idea. Among the diverse poets who gravitated to this scene were several younger and fresher upstarts, like Gary Snyder Michael McClure and Philip Whalen . In October 1955 Rexroth lent his name and reputation to a loose poetry reading featuring this younger crowd. The reading at the Six Gallery caused a literary sensation and introduced the idea of the Beat Generation to the world. According to some biographical material, Rexroth later grew slightly irritated as the Beats began to reach immense fame, often offending his sensitive poetic ideals with their crazy hijinks. But this is typical old-guard vs. new-guard stuff. Rexroth was an important poet in his own scene, and deserves our eternal appreciation for having invented the idea of San Francisco as a center of literary innovation.

Extractions: Kenneth Rexroth's Life Caren Irr Rexroth, Kenneth (22 Dec. 1905- 6 June 1982), poet and translator, was born Kenneth Charles Marion Rexroth in South Bend, Indiana, the son of Charles Rexroth, a pharmaceuticals salesman, and Delia Reed. Owing to Charles's rocky career, the family moved frequently throughout the northern midwest until Delia died in 1916 and Charles in 1919. For the next three years, Rexroth lived with an aunt in Chicago. After his expulsion from high school, he educated himself in literary salons, nightclubs, lecture halls, and hobo camps while working as a wrestler, soda jerk, clerk, and reporter. In 1923-1924 he served a prison term for partial ownership of a brothel. During the 1920s, Rexroth backpacked across the country several times, visited Paris and New York, taught in a religious school, and spent two months in a Hudson Valley monastery. Reflections on these experiences appear in his later poetry, but his early work was cubist and surrealistoften opaquely so. In 1927 he married Andrée Schafer, an epileptic painter, and they moved to San Francisco. In the late 1920s Rexroth's first poems appeared in Pagany Morada , and Charles Henri Ford's Blues . He read much of Alfred North Whitehead's philosophy around this time. During the 1930s, Rexroth studied mysticism and Communism. Readings of Jacob Boehme, St. Thomas Aquinas, and John Duns Scotus influenced revisions to his long poem

In 1939, when Anne was 13, her parents sent her to England to escape the Nazis. She was met by an aunt she had never seen before, and within a week, was sent to a school 140 miles away to live among strangers and to learn a new language. Within six months, World War II broke out, and she became an enemy alien. Much later, Anne would learn that her parents and all of her relatives had been murdered by the Nazis.
