42. John Crowe Ransom THE SOUTHOLD OR NEW? from The Sewanee Review, April 1928, Vol. XXXVI,No. 2. The impression is being given out that the old South http://xroads.virginia.edu/~DRBR/ransom.html

THE SOUTH-OLD OR NEW? from The Sewanee Review , April 1928, Vol. XXXVI, No. 2 The impression is being given out that the old South- seat of an antiquated culture whose persistence has been such an anomaly in these longitudes-is being industrialized, and brought into line with our forward-looking and hundred-per-cent Americanism. But it is my judgment that this transformation will not prove so easy as the observers anticipate; it is certainly my hope. The benefit which the South can now render to the nation will consist in showing how an American community can really master the spirit of modern industrialism instead of capitulating to it; that is to say, it will consist in remaining Southern in the pure, traditional, even sectional sense. But if this programme is to escape the charge of treason, the Southern tradition needs examining once more. In order to objectify the South the more clearly, I will propose a thesis having a somewhat sweeping and simplified form. This is the thesis:-That the South in its history to date has exhibited what nowhere else on a large scale has been exhibited on this continent north of Mexico, a culture based on European principles which has lasted as long as a century; and that the European principles must look to the South if they are to be perpetuated in this country. I The pioneering life is not the normal life, whatever some Americans may suppose; it is not, if we look for the meaning of European history. The lesson of each of the major European cultures now extant is in this, that European opinion does not make too much of the intense practical enterprises, but is at pains to define rather narrowly the minimum of practical effort which is prerequisite to the reflective and aesthetic life. It is the European intention to live materially along the inherited line of least resistance in order to put the surplus of energy into the free life of the mind. And thus is engendered European conservatism, which appears stupid only to men given over to materialistic enterprises, men in a state of arrested adolescence; for instance, to some very large if indefinite fraction of the population of these United States.

Rigorous training in the classics enabled him to enter Vanderbilt University at fifteen. He left after two years to teach; returning, he graduated in 1909 with the highest grades in his class. After teaching another year, he went to Christ Church College, Oxford University, as a Rhodes scholar, successfully pursuing a degree that required extensive reading in original Greek and Latin texts. Soon he had an offer from the English Department at Vanderbilt, where he taught from 1914 to 1917. During two years spent with the United States Army field artillery in England and France, First Lieutenant Ransom published Poems About God In 1920 Ransom married Robb Reavill, a well-educated young woman who shared his interest in sports and games. In the early 1920s discussions of poetry with colleagues and friends led to the formation of a magazine, edited by a group including Ransom, Donald Davidson, and Allen Tate. Ransom found his mature poetic voice in the short lyric poems published regularly in the pages of The Fugitive from April, 1922, to December, 1925.

John Crowe Ransom, "Poetry, A Note on Ontology" Purpose of Thinking His purpose in "Poetry : A Note on Ontology" is to look at several types of poetry: imagism, Pure, Platonic, and metaphysical poetry. He points out some of the distinctions and suggests what the focus of poetry should be. In "Criticism as Pure Speculation" he discusses the place and responsibility of the critic. One of his interesting questions is what does a critic do when faced with poets who make "departures from conventional practices"? He also identifies and defines several types of literary criticism advocating a speculative approach . Information 1888-1974. He was the most influential of the American New Critics. He discusses some of the people, like George Moore, who were involved in fostering imagism (discussions at his house lead to the volume Pure Poetry.) In his discussion of the metaphysical poetry, he traces the lineage of the term from Johnson, through Pope, finally back to Dryden who meant by it, according to Ransom, supernatural or miraculous. He goes on to suggest that Dryden mostly rejected this type of poetry unless it was in satire, accepted it in Milton because of Milton's classicism. Dryden, he points out, was very influenced by Hobbes, who he calls a Satan and blames for the damper put on the greatest time of poetry in England. Interpretations Science and idealism are both bad poetry, the first because it suggests that there is "no percept without a concept," the second because it "destroys the image" by abstraction. As far as what he includes in idealism, it seems to be the philosophies derived from Platonism and from German thought. What he objects to is the sense that for something to exist, it has to be filtered through ideas. One of the distinctions he makes along this line is that pure, or physical poetry places the material quality of the thing first, the importance or interest of a thing are secondary qualities which have been placed on them by idealists, they are what we think about them, not what they actually are themselves.

John Crowe Ransom Blue Girls Twirling your blue skirts, travelling the sward Under the towers of your seminary, Go listen to your teachers old and contrary Without believing a word. Tie the white fillets then about your hair And think no more of what will come to pass Than bluebirds that go walking on the grass And chattering on the air. Practice your beauty, blue girls, before it fail; And I will cry with my loud lips and publish Beauty which all our power shall never establish, It is so frail. For I could tell you a story which is true; I know a woman with a terrible tongue, Blear eyes fallen from blue, All her perfections tarnished - yet it is not long Since she was lovelier than any of you.

ChickenBones: A Journal Home Johns Crowe Ransom Born in Pulaski, Tennessee, John Crowe Ransom received an undergraduate degree from Vanderbilt University in 1909 and studied as a Rhodes Scholar at Oxford and served in World war I. He became a professor at Vanderbilt and later taught at Kenyon College , where he founded and edited The Kenyon Review , and remained there until his retirement in 1959. Ransom published three slim volumes of highly acclaimed poetry, but after 1927 principally devoted himself to critical writing. He was a guiding member of the Fugitives, a group of writers who were wary of the social and cultural changes they were witnessing in the South during the early part of the 20th century. The Fugitives sought to preserve a traditional aesthetic ideal which firmly rooted in classical values and forms. As a critic, he had an enormous influence on an entire generation of poets and fellow academics, who subscribed to the doctrines he laid out as the "new criticism." His ideals were John Donne and the English metaphysical poetry of the 17th century. He believed in the poetic virtues of irony and complexity, and the importance of adhering to traditional prosodic techniques of meter, stanza, and rhyme. His own poems are marked by irony and a spare classicism, and a concern with the inevitable decay of all things human.
