86. Richard Wilbur
    Tartuffe, by Moliere Tartuffe, by Moliere Pulizterwinning poet richard wilbur has chosen to dedicate years of his life to making worthy English translations  
    http://anomalies-books.net/search_Richard_Wilbur/searchBy_Author.html
    
    Extractions: This book, with the amazingly original title, is a collection of four of Wilbur's earliest books The Beautiful Changes, Ceremony, Things of This World, and Advice to a Prophet. Rather counterintuitively, it begins with the latest book, Advice to a Prophet, and works its way backwards, so that if you read it front to back, you get a sort of anti-development of the young poet. I would say that there are about fifteen good poems here, and two or three really great poems. Wilbur works with for... The most amazing thing about this play is the skill of its author. The story is original and interesting. The actual writing is what captivated me. So witty is the dialogue, so humorous it is at times, that I laughed out loud. It is quite amazing that such ancient text sounds like something you would hear on a sitcom. This is not boring or confusing speech, like in Shakespeare; this is very down-to-earth. Aside from the alluring rhyme, Moliere has an incredible ability to take a page-long the...

Length : Text-only version Prev Index Next Your comments on this poem to attach to the end [ microfaq In the Smoking Car The eyelids meet. He'll catch a little nap. The grizzled, crew-cut head drops to his chest. It shakes above the briefcase on his lap. Close voices breathe, "Poor sweet, he did his best." "Poor sweet, poor sweet," the bird-hushed glades repeat, Through which in quiet pomp his litter goes, Carried by native girls with naked feet. A sighing stream concurs in his repose. Could he but think, he might recall to mind The righteous mutiny or sudden gale That beached him here; the dear ones left behind ... So near the ending, he forgets the tale. Were he to lift his eyelids now, he might Behold his maiden porters, brown and bare. But even here he has no appetite. It is enough to know that they are there. Enough that now a honeyed music swells, The gentle, mossed declivities begin, And the whole air is full of flower-smells. Failure, the longed-for valley, takes him in. Richard Wilbur An interesting poem - not brilliant, but I like the theme, and it's handled well enough. The poem is enjoyable not so much for the imagery as for the tone, which balances humour and warm sympathy nicely, with perhaps a hint of commiseration, and some lovely lines like 'So near the ending, he forgets the tale'. The poem also presents a somewhat wry look at today's rather pervasive success-oriented culture - the very stereotypicality of the character makes the reader realise that a good many people would rather inhabit a comfortable dreamworld than cope with the real one, desiring no better epitaph than 'poor sweet, he did his best'. Links: While this poem has echoes of Thurber's Walter Mitty and Schulz's Charlie Brown, neither analogy is that strong. More interesting is to compare it to Robinson's "Miniver Cheevy", a far harsher look at a similar misfit:

    Extractions: Will-Bur! ’ was the sound often heard in the old TV sitcom Mr. Ed , bellowing from the titular horse toward his owner, especially when the equus was peeved at him. Of course, Wilbur was a smiling idiot- not too unlike the hero of this opining. Yes, Richard Wilbur was American Poet Laureate from 1987-1988. So what?
