Louise Bogan Words for Departure Nothing was remembered, nothing forgotten. When we awoke, wagons were passing on the warm summer pavements, The window-sills were wet from rain in the night, Birds scattered and settled over chimneypots As among grotesque trees. Nothing was accepted, nothing looked beyond. Slight-voiced bells separated hour from hour, The afternoon sifted coolness And people drew together in streets becoming deserted. There was a moon, and light in a shop-front, And dusk falling like precipitous water. Hand clasped hand Nothing was lost, nothing possessed There was no gift nor denial. I have remembered you. You were not the town visited once, Nor the road falling behind running feet. You were as awkward as flesh And lighter than frost or ashes. You were the rind, And the white-juiced apple, The song, and the words waiting for music. You have learned the beginning; Go from mine to the other. Be together; eat, dance, despair, Sleep, be threatened, endure. You will know the way of that. But at the end, be insolent;

Louise Bogan "The poet represses the outright narrative of his life. He absorbs it, along with life itself. The repressed becomes the poem. Actually I have written down my experience in the closest detail. But the rough and vulgar facts are not there." Quoted from Journey around My Room. Edited by Ruth Limmer. Medusa I had come to the house in a cave of trees, Facing a sheer sky. Everything moved, -a bell hung ready to strike, Sun and reflection wheeled by. When the bare eyes were before me And the hissing hair, Held up at a window, seen through a door. The stiff bald eyes, the serpents on the forehead Formed in the air. This is a dead scene forever now. Nothing will ever stir. The end will never brighten it more than this, Nor the rail blur. The water will always fall, and will not fall, And the tipped bell make no sound. The grass will always be growing for hay Deep on the ground.

She married in 1916 and was widowed in 1920. In 1925, she married her second husband, the poet Raymond Holden, whom she divorced in 1937. Her poems were published in the New Republic , the Nation Poetry: A Magazine of Verse Scribner's and Atlantic Monthly . For thirty-eight years, she reviewed poetry for The New Yorker Bogan found the confessional poetry of Robert Lowell and John Berryman distasteful and self-indulgent. With the poets whose work she admired, however, such as Theodore Roethke , she was extremely supportive and encouraging. She was reclusive and disliked talking about herself, and for that reason details are scarce regarding her private life. The majority of her poetry was written in the earlier half of her life when she published Body of This Death (1923) and Dark Summer (1929) and The Sleeping Fury (1937). She subsequently published volumes of her collected verse, and

15. William Butler Yeats - 38.05 by louise bogan published in Atlantic Unbound The Atlantic Monthly Magazine Online from a piece in May 1938 when he was still alive, aged 73. Includes poetic extracts from his works. http://www.theatlantic.com/atlantic/atlweb/poetry/yeats/bogan.htm

As originally published in The Atlantic Monthly May 1938 William Butler Yeats by Louise Bogan W ILLIAM Butler Yeats, at the age of seventy-three, stands well within the company of the great poets. He is still writing, and the poems which now appear, usually embedded in short plays or set into the commentary and prefaces which have been another preoccupation of his later years, are, in many instances, as vigorous and as subtle as the poems written by him during the years ordinarily considered to be the period of a poet's maturity. Yeats has advanced into age with his art strengthened by a long battle which had as its object a literature written by Irishmen fit to take its place among the noble literatures of the world. The spectacle of a poet's work invigorated by his lifelong struggle against the artistic inertia of his nation is one that would shed strong light into any era. The phenomenon of a poet who enjoys continued development into the beginning of old age is in itself rare. Goethe, Sophocles, and, in a lesser degree, Milton come to mind as men whose last works burned with the gathered fuel of their lives. More often development, in a poet, comes to a full stop; and it is frequently a negation of the ideals of his youth, as well as a declination of his powers, that throws a shadow across his final pages. Yeats in his middle years began to concern himself with the problem of the poet in age. He wrote in 1917, when he was fifty-two:

Louise Bogan's Life and Career Wendy Hirsch B ogan was born Louise Marie Bogan in Livermore Falls, Maine, the daughter of Daniel Joseph Bogan, a superintendent in a paper mill, and Mary Helen Murphy Shields. She grew up in various mill towns in the Northeast, moving often with her parents and brother. Her parents' marriage was volatile, and her mother's affairs haunted Bogan for much of her life. Although Bogan attended Boston University for only one year in 1915-1916, her early education at Boston Girls' Latin School gave her a rigorous foundation. She was already writing poetry and reading Poetry: A Magazine of Verse in its first issues in 1912. While modernism in literature and the arts was gaining in momentum and shape, Bogan was quietly mastering metrics and defining her style. She later wrote passionately about her artistic awakening, describing a visit to her mother in the hospital. There in the room she saw a vase of marigolds: "Suddenly I recognized something at once simple and full of the utmost richness of design and contrast that was mine." Design and contrast are at the heart of her formal poetry, and the style that she crafted early did not vary much throughout her later years. She married Curt Alexander in 1916, but the marriage was not a happy one. They had one daughter, born just a year later. By 1920 Bogan was a widow (she had earlier separated from her husband), left with a child to care for and without a reliable income. After moving to New York City, where she would live for the rest of her life, Bogan started to piece together the life of a working writer. She soon met other writers in the city's thriving literary community: William Carlos Williams, Malcolm Cowley, Lola Ridge, John Reed (1887-1920), Marianne Moore, and, most important, Edmund Wilson, who became her early mentor. Wilson, already a man of reputation, urged her to write reviews of literature for periodicals, and this eventually became a steady source of income.

Bogan, Louise (1897-1970), poet and literary critic Born in Livermore Falls, Maine, on August 11, 1897, Louise Bogan attended Boston University but left school after a year, in 1916, to marry. Four years later she was left a widow with a child. Her poems were first published in the New Republic, and in 1923 her first volume appeared under the title Body of This Death. She continued to contribute both verse and criticism to the New Republic, The Nation, The New Yorker, Poetry, Atlantic Monthly, and other periodicals while publishing Dark Summer The Sleeping Fury (1937), and Poems and New Poems (1941). Her verse was frequently compared with that of the English Metaphysical poets in its restrained, intellectual style, its compressed diction and imagery, and its traditional techniques. Yet it is modern, both deeply personal and immediate. Bogan was accounted one of the major American poets of her time. She received many prestigious awards. In 1944 she was a fellow in American letters at the Library of Congress, and in 1945-46 she held the chair of poetry there. Her critical survey, Achievement in American Poetry, 1900-1950
