About Edna St. Vincent Millay E dna St. Vincent Millay (1892-1950) was born in Rockland, Maine. Her parents, Cora Lounella, a nurse, and Henry Tolman Millay, a schoolteacher, divorced when she was about eight; "Vincent" stayed with her mother. In 1917 she graduated from Vassar, published Renascence and Other Poems (the title piece had won her recognition in 1912), and took the lead in her own play The Princess Marries the Page Aria da Capo and Two Slatterns and a King . Meanwhile she earned her living with pseudonymous magazine sketches [published under the name Nancy Boyd and] collected in Distressing Dialogues in 1924. With the frank and cynical love poetry of A Few Figs From Thistles in 1920 [containing "First Fig," one of Millay’s most well known and widely quoted poems], and Second April in 1921, Edna St. Vincent Millay was hailed as the voice of her generation, embodiment of the New Woman. After two years in Europe as a correspondent for Vanity Fair , she married Eugene Jan Boissevain in 1923; [Millay had earlier] devoted a sonnet to the memory of his first wife, her suffragist idol Inez Milholland. [In 1923 she also] became the first woman to receive a Pulitzer Prize for poetry, for Ballad of the Harp Weaver . At the height of her popularity she joined a writer’s crusade to stay the execution of Sacco and Vanzetti in 1927; she commemorated their end in five poems, "Justice Denied in Massachusetts", "Hangman’s Oak", "The Anguish", "To Those Without Pity", and "Wine from These Grapes" (collected in

Millay was best known for inciting the flames of youthful rebellion in the post-World War I social and literary movement based in Greenwich Village, where she played an active role. Millay's talents appeared early, and one of her poems appeared in St. Nicholas, and she delivered a verse essay at high school graduation. A wealthy friend, impressed with Millay's talent, helped her attend Vassar. After graduating in 1917, she settled in Greenwich Village and supported herself by writing. That year Millay published her first book of poems, Renascence, titled for the lead poem, which she had first published in The Lyric Year in 1912 when she was 19. Millay's first book of poems enjoyed a great success and established her as a serious and important poet.

Edna St. Vincent Millay (1892-1950) Contributing Editor: John J. Patton Classroom Issues and Strategies Students have few problems reading Millay's poetry because the poet is forthright in expressing her emotions, ideas, and experiences. Obviously such references as those to Euclid and Endymion require explanation. Occasionally the diction needs some explication because of Millay's fondness for archaic and Latinate words. Not much more is required than the teacher's ability to clarify some allusions and an occasional word or phrase. Any teacher of modern American literature should also have no problems with the references to city life and to issues of the times, which are generously sprinkled throughout Millay's work. As for accessibility, some benefit will come from placing Millay in the context of the poetry of the 1920s and 1930s as one of those like, for instance, Robert Frost , Archibald MacLeish, and Edward Arlington Robinson , who carried forward the more traditional verse form and techniques in the face of the experimentalism of T. S. Eliot

PLEASE SET SCREEN TO WIDTH OF BAR Edna St. Vincent Millay (1892-1950) In her lifetime Edna St. Vincent Millay (1892-1950) was renowned for her traditional poetic and her bohemian living. She infused conventional forms with a fervent contemporary spirit. The publication in 1912 of the poem "Renascence" won her instant acclaim. Early in her career Millay wrote fiction under the pseudonym of Nancy Boyd; later she wrote several plays and an opera libretto. In 1923 she was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for poetry and in the 1930s she published sonnets that have earned a lasting place as exemplars of the form. In later years she applied her art to the Allied war effort and other social causes. Edmund Wilson deemed Millay "a spokesman for the human spirit"; few writers have commanded so wide and enduring an audience. From 1923 to her death, Millay lived with her husband in Austerlitz, New York, at their farmhouse at Steepletop, now a National Historic Landmark. In 1973 her sister, Norma Millay, established The Millay Colony for the Arts which affords writers, composers, and visual artists the chance to further their work in surroundings already rich with an artistic heritage.

Edna St. Vincent Millay by Daniel Mark Epstein Unquiet spirit, by what right Do I come to disturb your dust In this omniscient October light A half century almost from the day You tumbled down your library stairs Into eternal night? By what right Do I invade the dignity of your house, Ransack the closets, shelves and drawers, Measuring your dresses and jewelry, Picturing you alive, challenging me? I breathe deep, hoping a sweet scent Of you, long breathless, might arise, Some stray atom of your spirit meant For mine alone. We are not so different Souls confronting the inarticulate. Like others of my time and not like you Who made a fortune making Fortune rhyme. To make my living I must turn to prose. This is what has brought me to your house, Gardens, letters, grave and diary. Why do you preserve all of this stuff, Your books, shoes and teacups, lingerie, A hat made from a peacock, golden coat Cut from a lion or an ocelot? The fiery swirl of hair clipped from your head In childhood to make tresses for a doll; The doll itself! Sits staring, cracked and bald

Edna St. Vincent Millay Navigation Biography of Edna St. Vincent Millay Poems by Millay Books by Millay Biography of Edna St. Vincent Millay Edna St. Vincent Millay, born in 1892 in Maine, grew to become one of the premier twentieth-century lyric poets. She was also an accomplished playwright and speaker who often toured giving readings of her poetry. All of that was in her public life, but her private life was equally interesting. An unconventional childhood led into an unconventional adulthood. She was an acknowledged bisexual who carried on many affairs with women, an affection for which is sometimes evident in her poems and plays. She did marry, but even that part of her life was somewhat unusual, with the marriage being quite open, and extramarital affairs, though not documented, are quite probable. At the young age of seven, Edna's mother asked her husband to leave the family home. After that point he held a negligible role in the girl's life. Edna and her two sisters moved, with their mother, to Newburyport, Massachusetts where, to Edna's delight, she was given piano lessons. Edna (who insisted on being called Vincent and who even entered writing contests under that name) and her sisters were encouraged in their literary and musical leanings by their mother. Then, in highschool, Millay's interests expanded to include theater. She performed in numerous plays and wrote a Halloween play for her classmates to act out. Millay enjoyed her free-spirited childhood and adolescence and the creativity that it inspired. At the age of twenty, she entered her poem

American Literature Web Resources: Edna St. Vincent Millay Edna St. Vincent Millay (1892-1950) compiled by Elizabeth Kreydich, Millikin University Edna St. Vincent Millay was characterized as one of the greatest (women) lyricists of the Twentieth Century. She is known as one of the greatest sonnet writers of all time, with her soft style and striking connotations. Millay has been described as a tease and a tomboy. Her mother urged her and her two younger sisters, Norma and Kathleen to be independent and ambitious. It is rumored that her mother taught her to write verse by the age four, and her first poem that was published she wrote at fourteen. She studied as a child to become a concert pianist, and became successful with music and literature composition, and was a playwright. Millay was a flamboyant twenties feminist, who didn't care to follow the rules set by a society of men, but rather create her own. She was described as "only five feet tall, with red hair, changeable green eyes, and a melodious voice." It was also said that she had an, "intoxicating affect on people." (Edmund Wilson) Chronology 1892-Edna St. Vincent Millay was born to Henry Tolman Millay and Cora Lounella (Buzelle) Millay, in Rockland, Maine on February 22nd.
