Supplication: Selected Poems Bewertungen

'There is no doubt in my mind or in anyone's mind who knows these poems well that they are major American poetry and will be in anthologies for one hundred years, I mean that good.' -Allen Ginsberg; 'A graceful rigor seems to be Wieners' natural mode; we feel the force of deliberation in his most free forms - he is never casual. The grace is miraculous, for he aims at intensities, by orders that shape and then restrict feeling to the ardent.' Robert Duncan; 'What moves us is not the darkness of the world in which the poems were written by the pity and terror and joy that is beauty in the poems themselves...In Wieners the glamor is in the word-music itself.' -Denise Levertov

Über John Wieners

John Wieners (1934-2002) was a founding member of the 'New American' poetry that flourished in America after the Second World War. Upon graduating from Boston College in 1954, Wieners enrolled in the final class of Black Mountain College. Following Black Mountain's closure in 1956, he founded the small magazine Measure (1957-1962) and embarked on a peripatetic life, participating in poetry communities in Boston, San Francisco, New York and Buffalo throughout the late 1950s and 1960s, before settling at 44 Joy Street on Beacon Hill, Boston in 1972. He is the author of seven collections of poetry, three one-act plays, and numerous broadsides, pamphlets, uncollected poems, and journals. Robert Creeley once described Wieners as the greatest poet of emotion of their time.
