HOME SUBSCRIBE FREE COPY SITE MAP The Progressive March 1998 Issue Remembering Denise Levertov BY ANNE-MARIE CUSAC On campus during the week, we organized read-ins against the war. They started smallwe read to ourselves the first night. But as word spread, the library where we held them filled up. Our read-ins became a regular announcement at campus rallies. Levertov was a committed protester, but not a dominating one. Once she had set us in motion, she let us go. At the rallies in her trenchcoat and sunglasses, she stood back from the crowds, an interested smile on her face. At the read-ins, she would sit at the far side of the room, silent and listening. Levertov wrote her first overtly political poetry during the Vietnam War, at a time when the U.S. poetry establishment was deeply anti-political. The presence of such writing alongside poems written in her well-known lyric voice seemed disruptive to her critics. Most reviews either made small mention of the political poems or panned them as a group. Near Saigon

S PRESS BEATLAND A U T H O R DENISE LEVERTOV BIOGRAPH V ersion Links Denise Levertov is a poet, and more a contemporary than a member of the Beat Generation. 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 got 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- 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

Awards Calendar Journal Poetry in Motion ... Resources Tribute: Denise Levertov Back In the following essay, Robert Creeley honors his beloved friend and fellow poet Denise Levertov, who died at the age of 74 on December 23, 1997. Hard to believe we met about fifty years ago in New York, when she and Mitch had first married and she had returned from Europe with him in the classic manner to start her own life over again. Certainly as a poet she had to. The distance between her first book, The Double Image , and the second, Here and Now , published by City Lights in its Pocket Poets series ten years later, is a veritable quantum leap. Kenneth Rexroth, editing The New British Poets for New Directions, thought her most able and, when he saw her, declared her Dante's Beatrice incarnate. W. C. Williams, writing of "Mrs. Cobweb" in Here and Now , said that one can't really tell if she's utterly virginal or if she has been on the town for years and years. Everyone was intrigued! Was it Denise's long training as a dancer, when she was a child, that gave her such particularity of movementher phrase and line shifting with the fact of her emotion, the rhythms locating each word? In a sense she was a wide-awake dreamer; a practical visionary with an indomitable will; a passionate, whimsical heart committed to an adamantly determined mind. It wasn't simply that Denise was right. It was that her steadfast commitments could accommodate no error. Back in the States, then to Mexico, as I also shifted about to Black Mountainthen to New Mexico, Guatemala, and CanadaMitch's and Denise's son Nick grew and grew, as our own children did.

POETRY In Memory of Denise Levertov, 1923-1997 The poet Denise Levertov was associated with the journal from its beginnings. When that publication merged with Cross Currents in 1990, she remained on the Advisory Board of the Association for Religion and Intellectual Life. Her spiritual journey is chronicled in her numerous books of poems, and her social conscience was as fierce as her language, fresh and insistent. Although she died a year ago, her voice is as vital as ever. Her passion is as essential now as it was thirty years ago when she wrote so eloquently for peace. As we thought about a way to commemorate Levertov's passing, we discovered a book of translations from the Bengali that she had completed with Edward C. Dimock, Jr., in 1967. The poems, published as In Praise of Krishna, chronicle the love of Krishna and Radha, which exemplifies the full range of emotion, both physical and spiritual, that unites humans to each other and to the divine. We have selected four that seem to speak of that journey toward the deity, through death, which is like one's approach to the beloved, filled with awe, fear, and excitement. The poems are elegaic and erotic, an appropriate celebration of one who lived and wrote across all boundaries.

Three Poems by Denise Levertov By Robert Hass August 1, 1999 W Here are a few of them. This one seems to begin with the weather of the Northwest and then leaps back, perhaps, as it reaches for a metaphor, to a memory of her English childhood: Celebration Morning shadow cut by sharpest scissors, whether it's ferns or lichens or needles greener than ever before. And the way the conifers hold new cones to the light for the blessing, a festive right, and sing the oceanic chant the wind transcribes for them! A day that shines in the cold like a first-prize brass band swinging along the street of a coal-dusty village, wholly at odds with the claims of reasonable gloom. And this small poem gathers into a small notation one of her persistent themes: the brokenness of the world, its violence and injustice, and her longing for wholeness, the longing that sent her back to her Christian roots at the end of her life. It has no title: Scraps of moon bobbing discarded on broken water but sky-moon complete, transcending

Coversations with Denise Levertov By Edited by Jewel Spears Brooker Denise Levertov, American poet and activist, died in December 1997 at the age of 74. This book contains some twenty previously uncollected interviews conducted between the early 1960s and the middle of the 1990s. They are focused primarily on her work as a poet but also on her social and political concerns. She was forty years old and already recognized as an important poet at the time of the first of these interviews. She was past seventy and an icon of American culture at the time of the most recent. Levertov was born in England of a Welsh mother and a Russian-born Anglican priest who had converted from Judaism. She first made her mark as a poet in the late 1950s. Her poetry was recognized as distinctive and indeed brilliant. The earliest interviews are focused on her poetic craft and on her youth in England, her education, her marriage to an American, and her postwar move to New York. In 1955 she became a U.S. citizen, and in the 1960s and 1970s she and her husband Mitchell Goldman were among the most visible and vocal opponents of the Viet-nam War. After the war, she retained her interest in social and political issues and continued over the years to write deeply moving poetry about her life and about contemporary events.

October 24 ~  Deep Down Tesserae In c i t y in suburb, in forest, no way to s t r e t c h out the arms — so if you would g r o w go straight up or d e e p down." ~ Denise Levertov A masterful poet who wrote straight up and deep, Denise Levertov (1923-1997) was born on this day in Essex, England, home-schooled, and started writing poetry as a child "I came from a very literate and somewhat literary background. I grew up in a house full of books where everybody read. That's how evenings were spent by the family. It was like a Victorian childhood ," she explained. A nurse during World War II, she published The Double Image at age 22, the first of over 20 books of poetry, translations, and essays. "When you're really caught up in writing a poem, it can be a form of prayer ," she said. In 1947, she moved to the U.S. and her mentor became poet William Carlos Williams . "Williams was a sort of gateway into my own development as a poet," she said. "He opened up a new way of handling language She was inspired by the Transcendentalism of Thoreau Emerson , and Carlyle , she once said, "It is fatal to one’s artistic life to talk about something this is in process."
