Pursuit from Under by James Dickey Often, in these blue meadows, I hear what passes for the bark of seals And on August week ends the cold of a personal ice age Comes up through my bare feet Which are trying to walk like a boy's again So that nothing on earth can have changed On the ground where I was raised. The dark grass here is like The pads of mukluks going on and on Because I once burned kerosene to read Myself near the North Pole In the journal of Arctic explorers Found, years after death, preserved In a tent, part of whose canvas they had eaten Before the last entry.

FRtR Outlines American Literature American Poetry Since 1945 ... Authors James Dickey (1923- ) An Outline of American Literature by Kathryn VanSpanckeren American Poetry Since 1945: Authors: James Dickey (1923- ) Index James Dickey, a novelist and essayist as well as poet, is a native of Georgia. By his own reflection, he believes that the major theme in his work is the continuity that exists or must exist between the self and the world. Much of his writing is rooted in nature rivers and mountains, weather patterns, and the perils lurking within. In the late 1960s, Dickey began working on a novel, Deliverance , about the dark side of male bonding, which, when published and later filmed, increased his renown. His recent collections of verse deal with such varied themes as the landscape of the South ( Jericho: The South Beheld , 1974) and the influence of the Bible on his life ( God's Images , 1977). Dickey is often concerned with effort: "Outdoing, desperately / Outdoing what is required." Index

Still, this second collection of his poems again proves him one of our most serious, able and distinguished voices." Helmets "Dickey often manages to make his work memorable by the sheer force of what he has to say." Buckdancer's Choice ". . . establishes [Dickey] as one of the most important younger poets of our time. . . . The book has a passionate quality, an intense clarity, a lensing of the totality of being into a kind of carefully separated madness that makes it one of the remarkable books of the decade." Poems 1957-1967 ". . . has an unevenness that seems inextricably bound up with the kind of generosity required to by-pass the limits of intellectual and academic audiences."

J AMES Dickey was hugely gifted and hugely flawed, a tremendous reader and a born writer, an athlete and an intellectual, a deep thinker and a drinker, a composer of burly and extremist poetry, an excessive performer, a hopeless liar, an inveterate womanizer, a father who gave himself airs. This furnished much for a son, especially a talented son, to flee from. Christopher Dickey writes, The whisky on my father's breath, a smell that seemed to come from deep in the bellows of his lungs, started to frighten me.... I'd smell the whisky and know that whatever I said to him would go past him and whatever he replied would be words spoken to the air. He was my father still, but he was somebody I didn't know. Though Summer of Deliverance Go to The Difficulties of Being Major, by Peter Davison (October, 1967) Who are the likely successors to Robert Frost, Wallace Stevens, William Carlos Williams, and Theodore Roethke? Peter Davison nominates Robert Lowell and James Dickey for the honor. James Dickey seemed to come out of nowhere in the 1960s, arriving in a flood of poetry strange, exalted verse stories.

format this article to print DICKEY, JAMES LEE (1893-1959). James Lee Dickey, black physician, the son of John S. and Linnie A. (Sears) Dickey, was born in 1893 in Central Texas, probably near Waco. He attended Waco public schools from 1900 to 1912 and graduated from Tillotson College (now Huston-Tillotson College) in Austin in 1916. For a brief time he worked as an industrial-arts teacher in Marlin. Then he entered Meharry Medical College, Nashville, Tennessee, and graduated in 1921. He planned to go north or east to a large city to practice. But just before graduation his father died in an accident, leaving his mother with eight other children. Dickey traveled to Taylor, Texas, to talk to Dr. J. Richard Moore, the black doctor there, but upon arrival found that Moore had moved to San Antonio. Dickey later said, "The hand of destiny guided me to Taylor, I came to stay a few years; I remained to do my life's work." He married Magnolia Fowler of Nashville, Tennessee, on November 29, 1922, and brought her to Taylor, where they worked together on many projects, including support of the African Methodist Episcopal Church. qv His concerns extended to problems of segregation and emotional suppression of blacks. Because violence was the cause of numerous deaths, Dickey, along with others, developed recreational facilities for youth. He sought assistance from white physicians and got it. In 1940 the school board bought land for a park for African Americans
