The broad-planked floor had a sandpapered neatness. The clear glass bed-lamp with a white doily shade was still raised a few inches by resting on volume two of Lafcadio Hearn's Glimpses of unfamiliar Japan . Its warped olive cover was punished like a rhinoceros hide. In the flyleaf: 'Robbie from Mother.' Years later in the same hand: 'This book has had hard usage On the Yangtze River, China.

Choose another writer in this calendar: by name: A B C D ... Z by birthday from the calendar Credits and feedback Robert Lowell (1917-1977) American poet noted for his complex, oratorial poetry, and turbulent life, which was entangled with the social, political, and ideological movements in the U.S. during the Post World War II decades. Lowell was called the father of the confessional poets, a term used to describe among others Sylvia Plath , Anne Sexton, and John Berryman. From 1949 the manic-depressive Lowell spent periods in mental hospitals, he was a heavy drinker, and was married three times. I cowered in terror. I wasn't a child at all - unseen and all-seeing, I was Agrippina in the Golden House of Nero... Near me was the white measuring-door My Grandfather had penciled with my Uncle's heights. In 1911, he had stopped growing at just six feet. (from 'My Last Afternoon with Uncle Devereux Winslow', 1959) Robert Lowell was born in Boston as the son of Robert Traill Spence Lowell, a naval officer, and Charlotte (Winslow) Lowell. He was a member of a distinguished, intellectual family whose members included the poet and critic James Russell Lowell and the poet Amy Lowell. His mother was the dominating figure in the family filled with internal tensions, and in spite of the famous ancestors, they were considered poor by other relatives. Lowell was nicknamed Cal partly after the the Roman emperor Caligula, known for his cruelty, and Caliban, familiar from Shakespeare's play The Tempest

Robert Lowell Of the many poets writing in the United States in recent years one of the most outstanding was Robert Lowell. Related as he was to such earlier American poets as Amy Lowell and James Russell Lowell, Robert Lowell came by his interest in poetry naturally. His first book of poems, Land of Unlikeness , was published in 1944. From this volume he selected the best poems, which he reworked and published as Lord Weary's Castle . This collection won the Pulitzer Prize in 1946. Other volumes of his poetry are: The Mills of the Kavanaughs Life Studies (1959), and For the Union Dead (1964). Lowell taught at a number of schools, including Kenyon College, Boston University, and Harvard. Lowell's earlier poems, especially those that appeared in Lord Weary's Castle , represented an involvement with the traditions of the poets of the generation of T.S. Eliot and Allen Tate. However, in both subject matter and language, his later poems seem a departure from these traditions and assume a more contemporary posture. Because of his early traditional approach and later divergence, Lowell was one of the most transitional of contemporary American poets. Perhaps the chief characteristic of Lowell's poetry is its vitality. He never overelaborates about a feeling or thought just so that it will fill a poem, but instead packs the lines he writes with exuberant energy. Sometimes he may prove difficult to understand, yet he is not one who loves obscurity for its own sake. His rhyme and rhythm are regular, and the beat of his verses is strong; we can feel the pulse in them. When one of his rhymes is off or a rhythm is wrenched, it is for a poetic purpose.

He is noted for his use of surreal imagery and historical allusion, layering confessional riffs with dense symbolism. He won the Pulitizer Prize in 1947 and 1974. Please sign my guestbook Skunk Hour Nautilus Island's hermit heiress still lives through winter in her Spartan cottage; her sheep still graze above the sea. Her son's a bishop. Her farmer is first selectman in our village; she's in her dotage. Thirsting for the hierachic privacy of Queen Victoria's century, she buys up all the eyesores facing her shore, and lets them fall. The season's ill we've lost our summer millionaire, who seemed to leap from an L. L. Bean catalogue. His nine-knot yawl was auctioned off to loberstermen. A red fox stain covers Blue Hill. And now our fairy decorator brightens his shop for fall; his fishnet's filled with orange cork, orange, his cobbler's bench and awl;
