Extractions: Visit the general discussion board or view list of boards Kenneth Rexroth was born on December 22, 1905 in South Bend, Indiana. He was integral to the emergence of the Beat poets, but did not consider himself a member of this younger group himself. Rexroth had already led his own earlier cultural movement, a much publicized "poetry renaissance" in San Francisco , which helped to promote the idea of the Northern California city as a culturally 'happening' place. By the time Allen Ginsberg arrived at Rexroth's doorstep in 1953 with a letter of introduction from William Carlos Williams , the San Francisco Poetry Renaissance was already an established idea. Among the diverse poets who gravitated to this scene were several younger and fresher upstarts, like Gary Snyder Michael McClure and Philip Whalen . In October 1955 Rexroth lent his name and reputation to a loose poetry reading featuring this younger crowd. The reading at the Six Gallery caused a literary sensation and introduced the idea of the Beat Generation to the world. According to some biographical material, Rexroth later grew slightly irritated as the Beats began to reach immense fame, often offending his sensitive poetic ideals with their crazy hijinks. But this is typical old-guard vs. new-guard stuff. Rexroth was an important poet in his own scene, and deserves our eternal appreciation for having invented the idea of San Francisco as a center of literary innovation.

He was born in South Bend, Indiana in 1905 and died on June 6, 1982 in Montecito, California. In addition to being a writer, translator, essayist and philosopher, Rexroth also helped found the San Francisco Poetry Center. He received the California Literature Silver Medal Award in 1941 for his book, In What Hour Rexroth became a prolific painter and poet by the age of seventeen. He soon gained reputation as a radical by associating with various labor groups and political anarchists. When the second renaissance of the 1920's occurred in Chicago, Rexroth was there. He later became involved in the Beat movement, attempting to elevate common consciousness. He was later given the title, "Godfather of the Beats" because of his involvement with the readings and events at the Cellar jazz club. Rexroth's influence and talents were actually greater than the Beat movement itself. He was perceived by critics as more than just another West Coast anarchist poet. "He is a man of wide cultivation and, when not too busy shocking the bourgeois reader...a genuine poet", said a critic by the name of Rosenthal. A critic named Gibson observed of his book

Extractions: Kenneth Rexroth Outfield An organizer of the infamous Six Gallery poetry reading of October 13, 1955. He has been described as "a middle-aged Chicago poet transplanted to San Francisco, where he held a salon for anarchists and maverick writers. Beloved as a 'hip square'. " Rexroth became involved with the Beat writers in the middle fifties. According to one of Kerouac's biographers, at a 1956 party, Kerouac made a drunken pass at one of Rexroth's daughter. This, needless to say soured their relationship. In 1959, Rexroth wrote an unfavorable review of Kerouac's Mexico City Blues. In Kerouac's Dharma Bums , Rexroth is Rheinhold Cacoethes.

Extractions: Kenneth Rexroth An Introduction and Selected Poems Many words could be used to describe Kenneth Rexroth (December 22,1905 - June 6, 1982): poet, philosopher, anarchist, translator, painter, essayist, columnist. Over the course of his life he took on many roles. Not well known for such, he started out as a painter in the mid-west. He continued to paint, but poetry became his major occupation and his most lauded achievement. Though he never received the recognition he thought he deserved, Rexroth is considered a major figure in twentieth century American poetry. An experimenter, his work was at different times associated with many different poetic styles: cubist, imagist, the beats. He really belonged to none of these movements and was always a fierce individualist. Reading through his collected poems , one can see the change in styles from his early abstract cubist works, to his later verses, simple and clear, inspired by eastern poets. Besides a poet, Rexroth was a prodigious essayist

Extractions: Place of Death: Montecito, California Kenneth Rexroth was not a Beat poet. He led his own earlier cultural movement in San Francisco, inventing the idea of the Northern California city as a culturally 'happening' place. Before Allen Ginsberg arrived at Rexroth's doorstep in 1953 with a letter of introduction from William Carlos Williams, Rexroth had already gathered together several young poets who would soon participate in the Bay Area Beat scene, particularly Gary Snyder Michael McClure and Philip Whalen In this role as the master of the city's poets, he presided over the introduction of the Beat Generation to the world in the mid-to-late fifties, risking his name and reputation on the unconventional young upstarts, and organizing the Six Gallery poetry reading that caused a literary sensation in 1955. According to some biographical material, Rexroth later grew slightly irritated as the Beats began to reach immense fame, often offending his sensitive poetic ideals with their crazy hijinks. But this is typical old-guard vs. new-guard stuff. Rexroth was an important poet in his own scene, and deserves our eternal appreciation for having invented the idea of San Francisco as a center of literary innovation.

Born in 1905 in South Bend, Indiana, he was educated mainly by his parents. As a young man he was a wanderer who sometimes worked as a casual labourer. Later on he became a political radical, and associated with various leftist and avant-garde movements. His work was closely associated with the Beat generation of the 1950s. He was San Francisco correspondent of The Nation from 1953 to 1968, and a columnist of San Francisco Examiner from 1960 to 1968. Apart from writing poetry, Kenneth Rexroth was also known as a painter. As a literary translator he rendered into English poetry written in French, Spanish, and Greek. He is well known for his translations of classical and modern Chinese and Japanese poetry. He co-translated with Chung Ling works of Chinese women poets, which are published in Orchid Boat: Woman Poets of China. He died in 1982. It is a well known fact that the Anglo-American new poetics of the first half of the 20 th century drew upon translations from Asia as an important source of inspiration. Rexroth¡¦s interest in Chinese and Japanese poetry is therefore very much part of the modern American poetic tradition.

Extractions: from The Complete Poems of Kenneth Rexroth Copper Canyon Press Kenneth Rexroth was one of the twentieth century's great literary minds, the author of fifty-four volumes of poetry, essays, and translations from a dozen languages. The Complete Poems collects all the poetry he is known to have written, including early work that appeared in revolutionary magazines and a few later uncollected poems. Rexroth's poems of nature and protest are remarkable for their erudition and biting social and political commentary; his love poems are renowned for their incandescent eroticism and clarity of emotion; and his poems of trancendent wisdom bridge Eastern and Western traditions. About The Complete Poems of Kenneth Rexroth "Kenneth Rexroth: elaborately learned, precisely and passionately political, sardonic and witty, and expert high mountain rambler; poet of love, wisdom, and righteous anger. He was a great teacher to so many, a warm, cranky, personal mentor to me. His poetics and politics are ever more relevant. I am grateful that we have his vivid hard-hitting poems brought back to us in this one volume." "By his poems, essays, and translations, Kenneth Rexroth did nothing less than alter the landscape of American poetry, but this is not his true achievement. The true achievement is this: certain of his wordsa poem here for this person, a phrase there for another, can alter the course of a reader's life, alter your sense of what is possible for you in a life. Here in this book, liftable in your hand, the keys to the kingdom: a rose-breasted grosbeak singing; the sudden glance of a pregnant mouse. Rexroth's visionecological, erotic, historical, musicalis fully alive and hugely ranging. What signal treasure, that these poems exist, can here and now be read."
