Adelaide Crapsey Creator of the Cinquain verse form Biography Adelaide Crapsey was born in Brooklyn, New York in 1878, but she lived most of her life in Rochester, New York . Her father, Reverend AlgernonSidney Crapsey, was an Episcopalian clergyman. He was transferred to a chirch in Rochester, which was the reason for their move. Adelaide attended public school in Rochester, later being sent to Kemper Hall preparatory school in Kenosha, Wisconsin. She was accepted to Vassar College and graduated in1901. This same year her sister Emily died, which put her teaching career on hold for one year. From 1902-04, she returned to Kemper Hall to teach. After two years of teaching she decided to get back to her studies, but this time in Rome. She studied at the School of Classical Studies of American Academy for one year . In 1906, she went back to the U.S. to teach at Miss Lowe's School in Stamford, Connecticut. She arrived back just in time for her father's trial for heresy, which led him to be displaced from the clergy. The next year she encountered another close death, the death of her eldest brother Philip. All this stress left her in poor health. She continued to fight her illness through the next few years as she traveled back to Europe hoping that she would recover. Amidst all this distress, Adelaide Crapsey managed to create a new form of verse, known as the cinquain. It was through her interest in the Japanese haiku and tanka verse form that she got her influence from. During her time in Europe she made contacts about publishing her work, but her illness continued to worsen.

University of Rochester River Campus Libraries A.C89 ADELAIDE CRAPSEY PAPERS, 1878-1934 4 boxes Adelaide Crapsey (1878-1914) was born in Brooklyn, New York, the daughter of Algernon Sidney Crapsey and Adelaide (Trowbridge) Crapsey. Her father was assistant minister of Trinity Church, Brooklyn, but within the first year after Adelaide's birth he became rector of St. Andrew's Episcopal Parish, Rochester. Adelaide Crapsey attended public schools in Rochester, then entered Kemper Hall, Kenosha, Wisconsin in 1893. She graduated in 1897 at the head of her class, and entered Vassar College, from which she graduated in 190l. At Vassar she was the class poet for three years and editor-in-chief of the 1901 Vassarion. Before beginning her planned teaching career Adelaide Crapsey took a year's vacation to regain her strength and to recover from the shock caused by the death of her sister Emily in 1901. She then taught literature and history at Kemper Hall from 1902 to 1904, and Miss Lowe's School in Stamford, Connecticut from 1906 to 1908. In the meantime she had spent the year 1904-05 in Rome studying at the School of Classical Studies of the American Academy. She returned to Rochester in time to attend her father's trial for heresy, at the end of which he was deposed from the ministry. The strain of the trial, with the death of her eldest brother Philip in May 1907, left Adelaide Crapsey in poor health. She accompanied her father to the Hague Peace Conference in June, but her health did not improve from the trip, and it was decided that she should return to Rome in December 1908. In the following two years she lived in Rome and London, with short periods in Paris and Fiesole. She continued her study of English prosody at the British Museum in 1910, and corresponded with T.S. Omond, an English prosodist, concerning possible publication of her work.

9. DISCOVERING ADELAIDE CRAPSEY: CONFESSIONS OF A CONVERT DISCOVERING adelaide crapsey CONFESSIONS OF A CONVERT The strange name "adelaide crapsey" was first introduced into my lexicon when I was a graduate student at the University of Rochester in the sixties. http://www.geocities.com/alkalay_gut/crapsey.htm

DISCOVERING ADELAIDE CRAPSEY: CONFESSIONS OF A CONVERT Karen Alkalay-Gut The strange name "Adelaide Crapsey" was first introduced into my lexicon when I was a graduate student at the University of Rochester in the sixties. She was a local poet, and the name came to mean to me all that seemed provincial and pretentious in my home town of Rochester and all that was trivial in women poets. I was busy with a dissertation on Theodore Roethke, an amazing poet in some ways, but one who must have further biased me against Crapsey when he complained about women poets "stamping a tiny foot against God." Crapsey's papers and poems had been donated to the University, and there was no-one interested enough to catalogue them and introduce them to the public. William Gilman, one of my professors who was then occupied with the editing of Emerson's Journals, was passionate in his emphasis of the necessity for establishing accurate texts in American Literature, and often used Crapsey as a typical example. "Here is a poetess," he would say, "who might be every bit as good as Emily Dickinson, but doesn't have a good editor to present her work to the world." Now at the time I didn't particularly see the value of the drudgery of editing. As a romantic and idealistic graduate student of Literature I didn't see any romance in spending one's days in the laborious task of deciphering the scrawls of some insignificant writer. It seemed to me that greatness was something that always rose to the surface, always made itself apparent, and the laborious work of the textual editor could have little to do with that greatness. So when I saw, a few years later, an authoritative edition of Crapsey's poems and letters in the library, I found myself chortling, wondering who Gilman finally got to do the dirty work, and what could possibly be of value in a Rochester "poetess."

Crapsey, Adelaide (1878-1914), poet Born on September 9, 1878, in Brooklyn, New York, Adelaide Crapsey grew up in Rochester, New York. She was the daughter of Reverend Algernon Sidney Crapsey, an Episcopal clergyman who in 1906 was defrocked after a celebrated heresy trial. After attending Kemper Hall preparatory school in Kenosha, Wisconsin, Adelaide Crapsey entered Vassar College, from which she graduated in 1901. She taught at Kemper Hall in 1902-04 and then spent a year at the School of Classical Studies of the American Academy in Rome. From 1906 to 1908 she taught at Miss Lowe's School in Stamford, Connecticut, but by the latter year she was in the grip of tuberculosis; for the next three years she sought to restore her health in Italy and England. During that time Crapsey also carried on the analytic investigations that were to be published, uncompleted, as A Study in English Metrics (1918). In 1911 she returned to America and took a post as instructor in poetics at Smith College, but in 1913 ill health forced her to enter a sanatorium at Saranac Lake, New York. During her last year she wrote much of the verse that was to make her famous. Her deep interest in meter and rhythm led her to devise a new verse form, the cinquain, a 5-line form of 22 syllables that was ideally suited to her own poised, concise, and delicate expression. Analogous to the Japanese verse forms haiku and tanka, it has two syllables in its first and last lines and four, six, and eight in the intervening three lines. It generally has an iambic cadence. Crapsey died in Rochester, New York, on October 8, 1914. The next year her own selection of cinquains and verses in other forms appeared as

University of Rochester River Campus Libraries D.272  CRAPSEY FAMILY PAPERS, 1839-1991 12 boxes and 14 scrapbooks Background and Scope of Collection: The collection contains materials relating to the Algernon S. and Adelaide Trowbridge Crapsey family of Rochester, NY, one of the city’s most prominent families of the late 19 th and early 20 th centuries.  Algernon S. Crapsey (1847-1927) came to Rochester from New York City’s Trinity Church to become the rector of St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church on Averill Avenue.  Dr. Crapsey was known throughout the nation for his eloquence and his inspiring social ideals.  Through his efforts, St. Andrew’s became one of the most well attended churches in Rochester.  His progressive yet controversial views of the church led him to be brought to trial for heresy in 1906, following a lecture in which he related Jesus’ life to the physical one of the common man.  Despite considerable local and national support for Dr. Crapsey, the Episcopal Church convicted him of heresy and he was defrocked.  Although he lacked credentials, Dr. Crapsey continued to lecture, write, and foster important social work projects until his death in 1927. Adelaide Trowbridge Crapsey (1855-1950) was also well known in the Rochester community.  She devoted much of her time organizing aid for young mothers, widows, and children, and founded the Adelaide T. Crapsey Co., manufacturers of children’s frocks.  The factory was well known as a unique family-type work setting for its employees.
