Bishop, Elizabeth (1911-1979), poet (1946), captures the divided nature of Bishop's allegiances: born in New England and reared there and in Nova Scotia, she eventually migrated to hotter regions. This book was reprinted in 1955, with additions, as and it won a Pulitzer Prize. Much of Bishop's later work also addresses the frigid/tropical dichotomy of a New England conscience in a tropic sphere. Questions of Travel (1965) and Geography III (1976) offer spare, powerful meditations on the need for self-exploration, on the value of art (especially poetry) in human life, and on human responsibility in a chaotic world. The latter collection includes some of Bishop's best-known poems, among them "In the Waiting Room," "Crusoe in England," and the exquisite villanelle "One Art." A collection entitled The Complete Poems was published in 1969. Bishop taught writing at Harvard University from 1970 to 1977. She was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Letters in 1976. Posthumously published volumes include The Complete Poems, 1927-1979

Bishop was born on February 8, 1911, in Worcester, Massachusetts, the only child of Gertrude May Boomer Bishop of Great Village, Nova Scotia, and William T. Bishop, eldest son of a wealthy Worcester family. When Elizabeth was eight months old, her father died of Bright's Disease. Her mother, stricken by the shock of his death, over the next five years was intermittently hospitalized for nervous breakdowns, until she was committed in 1916 to a public sanitarium in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, where she remained until her death in 1934. Sponsor Message. Elizabeth was cared for by her mother's parents in Great Village until 1917, when her paternal grandparents, believing that she would benefit from the material and social privileges they could offer, brought her to live with them in Worcester. The stress of her sudden displacement from congenial village life to the isolation and cold propriety of the Bishop house caused Elizabeth to develop severe asthma, eczema, and bronchitis, and after only nine months she was taken in by her mother's sister, Maude, who lived in a south Boston tenement. Maude's care, along with summer visits to Nova Scotia, considerably improved Elizabeth's health though she had little formal education until high school because of her illnesses, and she suffered from chronic asthma for the rest of her life.

The poems from her first three books, along with additional poems about her life in Brazil, translations from Brazilian poets, and several uncollected poems from the 1930s, were published as The Complete Poems (1969), which won the National Book Award in 1970. Sponsor Message. In 1976, she published Geography III , which, although it contained only nine new poems, won the National Book Critics Circle Award in 1977. Also in 1976 she became the first woman to win the prestigious Books Abroad/Neustadt International Prize for Literature. Widely acknowledged as one of the finest twentieth-century American poets, Bishop has long been known as "a poet's poet" because of her seemingly effortless mastery of form. She often adopts a supple yet relaxed iambic pentameter, and her rhymes are both innovative and understated.

Elizabeth Bishop A rtista y poetisa estadounidense cuyos cuadros y dibujos se caracterizan por la descripción fría y realista de la figura humana. Aunque en sus primeras obras, de la década de 1920, se aprecia cierta influencia del cubismo y demás estilos geométricos, su obra de madurez es más cercana a la Ashcan School de comienzos de 1900 y a las escenas callejeras de Reginald Marsh. Sus cuadros sobre la vida en la ciudad de Nueva York son sencillos, de marcado realismo y demuestran un dominio absoluto del dibujo. Una de sus obras más famosas es Esperando (1935, Museo Whitney de Arte Americano, Nueva York): sus trazos rápidos y expresivos, su maestría de líneas y la agudeza de contrastes tonales recuerdan los dibujos de los viejos maestros del siglo XVII. © eMe Textos: El iceberg imaginario Llueve hacia el amanecer Mientras alguien llama por teléfono Audio: Elizabeth Bishop recitando sus poemas Galardones: Pulitzer Neustadt Archivo Midi epdlp

Biography Elizabeth Bishop Introduction Early Years Literary Career Last Years and Legacy Introduction From a life of losses, travels, and frequent emotional and physical illnesses, Elizabeth Bishop fashioned a body of poetry remarkable both for the finish of its form and the lushness and precision of its imagery. For many years a specialized taste, her work has grown in reputation in the same patient manner in which she composed poems. In the past decade, her poetry has been the focus of a great deal of attention from both critics and readers, to the point where she is now firmly established as one of the principal poets of the generation that came of age in the shadow of the great modernist masters. Early Years Elizabeth Bishop was born in Worcester, Massachusetts, on February 8, 1911. She was the only child of William T. Bishop and Gertrude May (Boomer) Bishop, both of Canadian ancestry. Her father, who was a vice president in his father's Boston-based construction company, had been intermittently ill for several years before his death from kidney disease on October 13, 1911, when his daughter was only eight months old. Bishop's mother subsequently suffered a number of breakdowns, and was permanently institutionalized in 1916; she spent many years in a sanitarium in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, where she died in May 1934. Bishop, who was only five years old at the time of her mother's commitment, never saw her again. She was then taken by her maternal grandparents to their home in a Nova Scotia town called Great Village. Out of her experiences there came the short story "In the Village" and the very fine poem "First Death in Nova Scotia."
