STANLEY KUNITZ
New York State Poet, 1987-1989
Stanley Kunitz was born in Worcester, Massachusetts in 1905. Educated at Harvard, from which he was graduated summa cum laude , he received the Garrison Medal for Poetry there. His first book of poems, Intellectual Things , appeared before he was 25. In the period before World War II he worked as a newspaperman, edited a magazine, and compiled several works of standard literary reference, of which the best known is Twentieth Century Authors . After military service and a year's residence in Santa Fe on a Guggenheim grant, he joined the faculty of Bennington College for his first teaching appointment. He has since taught at Potsdam State Teachers' College, Yale, Princeton, Rutgers, the New School for Social Research and as a Danforth visiting lecturer. He has served as poet-in-residence at the University of Washington, Queens College, Brandeis University, and Princeton, and has taught for many years in the graduate writing program at Columbia University. Selected Poems: 1928-1958 ; the Blumenthal and Levinson Prizes; an Amy Lowell traveling fellowship; the Saturday Review and Harriet Monroe poetry awards; an award from the National Institute of Arts and Letters; a Ford Foundation grant; an Academy of American Poets Fellowship; and in February 1987, New York State's Walt Whitman Citation of Merit and the Bollingen Prize for poetry. His citation for the Brandeis Medal of Achievement in 1965 described his poetry as "combining a classical strength of language and vision which goes beyond the easier uses of irony and achieves the genuinely tragic." And in 1984, the National Endowment for the Arts honored him with a Senior Fellowship "for his inordinate generosity in working with younger writers" and "his contribution to the world of letters ... a living and lasting influence." His poems have been translated into more than a dozen languages, including Russian, Dutch, Macedonian, French, Japanese, Hebrew, Arabic and Swedish.

credit: Ted Rosenberg “The poem comes in the form of a blessing—‘like rapture breaking on the mind,’ as I tried to phrase it in my youth. Through the years I have found this gift of poetry to be life-sustaining, life-enhancing, and absolutely unpredictable. Does one live, therefore, for the sake of poetry? No, the reverse is true: poetry is for the sake of the life.” —Stanley Kunitz :: Stanley Kunitz welcomed his ninety-fifth year in 2000. He has received nearly every honor bestowed upon a poet in this country, including the Pulitzer and Bollingen Prizes, a National Medal of Arts from President Clinton in 1993, and the Frost Medal from the Poetry Society of America in 1998. He has served twice as Poet Laureate of the United States, as State Poet of New York, and as Chancellor of the Academy of American Poets .

The Collected Poems of Stanley Kunitz

Stanley Kunitz
by Steven Burt Collected Kunitz’s father committed suicide before Kunitz was born; the poet was raised, in Worcester, Mass., by his hardworking, entrepreneurial mother, and (later) by a gentle stepfather. He attended Harvard in the early 1920s, staying on for an M.A., but was told that his Jewish background would keep him from teaching there. Working as a reporter and in the obscurer reaches of publishing, Kunitz lived mostly outside the poetry world, and entirely outside academia, for the first decades of his career. It would be easy to credit this for the lack of notice the early poems received, but the truth is that most of them weren’t very good. The young Kunitz was a more than usually ornate, more than usually sincere, much more than usually mystical Old Formalist, and never more deliberate than when announcing (with nods to Blake, Yeats, and Hart Crane) that he had been seized by a visionary passion, as in "Night-Piece":

About The Collected Poems
Stanley Kunitz
David Barber
In 1995, Stanley Kunitz received the National Book Award in Poetry for Passing Through: The Later Poems, New and Selected . The citation for the award reads in part: "In his genius, great clarity is joined to great generosity. His work shines with humanity humor, precision, and passion." Now, in the year of his ninety-fifth birthday, Kunitz combines both early and later poems, including his 1958 Selected Poems, (which won the Pulitzer Prize), and presents us with the gift of his life's work to date in poetry.
The early poems, long unavailable in any edition, sound themes that have always engaged Kunitz: life's meaning, the relation of time to eternity, kinship with nature, love and loss, most poignantly the prenatal loss of his father. Despite his deep recognition of the tragic element, Kunitz ardently celebrates life, as in the lines from "The Long Boat" that read like an epitaph: "He loved the earth so much / he wanted to stay forever." Perpetually curious, eager for fresh revelations, Kunitz fully embodies his own advice to younger poets "to persevere, then explore. Be explorers all your life."

Kunitz, Stanley Father and Son
Genre Poem Keywords Death and Dying Family Relationships Father-Son Relationship Loneliness ... Time Summary Through "suburbs and the falling light," the poet follows his father, mile after mile, trying to reach "the secret master of my blood." He tries to speak with his father, to tell him how things turned outthey lost the house, his daughter married, the poet "lived on a hill that had too many rooms . . . . " Finally, at the water's edge, the poet cries out for his father to return; he implores him not to jump into the water. The father turns his head and reveals "The white ignorant hollow of his face." Commentary The poet tries to encounter his dead father, who evidently committed suicide by drowning. He seeks somehow to heal this ultimate separation ("I'll wipe the mudstains from your clothes"), he pleads for more instruction about life, but there is no way for him to reach his father across the "ignorant hollow" of death.

About Stanley Kunitz Jay Parini K unitz was born inWorcester, Massachusetts, where he grew up; he studied at Harvard College, receiving a BA in 1926 and an MA in 1927. He then moved to New York, taking a job with the H. W. Wilson company as an editor of the Wilson Library Bulletin ; he also began at this time the work of collaboration with Howard Haycraft on four important biographical dictionaries of English and American authors. His first book of poems, Intellectual Things (1930) was barely recognized, and Kunitz did not publish his second book, Passport to War, for another fourteen years. The Second World War interrupted his career as editor, and when he was released from the army he joined the faculty of Bennington College, the first of several academic jobs. Real recognition came slowly to Kunitz, culminating in his receiving the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry in 1958 for his first Selected Poems The witty, even defiantly intellectual first poems of Kunitz gave way, gradually, to a more autobiographical verse (as in The Testing Tree
