PRENTICE HALL LITERATURE: Timeless Voices, Timeless Themes Garrett Hongo (b. 1951) Of Japanese descent, poet Garrett Hongo was born in Volcano, Hawaii but moved to California with his family when he was six years old. He attended a racially mixed high school in Los Angeles, where he was exposed to the street life and cultural alienation that have influenced his work as a poet. Hongo attended Pomona College, the University of Michigan, and the University of California at Irvine, where he received a Master of Fine Arts degree in English. Of his work, Hongo says, "My project as a poet has been motivated by a search for origins of various kinds, quests for ethnic and familial roots, cultural identity, and poetic inspiration, all ultimately somehow connected with my need for an active imaginative and spiritual life." Yellow Light (1982) and The River of Heaven Volcano: A Memoir of Hawaii (1995), in which he connects with his family's past. A B C D ... Z

Contact us (please note that we have no contact with the writers and cannot provide contact information) My stories are about immigrants. There have always been immigrants. We were there in prehistory, travelers from another place, another continent, or just stragglers from a larger society. We are a tribe of wanderers remembering a garden we'd left or looking for an Eden that waits. Immigrant stories have a certain commonality. Just as all dogs snarl, bite, hunger, and circle the nest before they rest, we as a species have common traits. We yearn for a more forgiving land, a truer love, and we huddle together for comfort and protection. We spring from this source and return to it for intimacy and warmth.

Though she paints and writes prose as well as poetry, she is especially known as a playwright and for her love of the theater.

DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH LANGUAGE AND LITERATURE SEMESTER 2, 1999-2000 EN 3211: ASIAN AMERICAN LITERATURE Walter LIM elllimw@nus.edu.sg Barnard TURNER ellturne@nus.edu.sg Course description and aims Writing by Americans of Asian descent is one of the growth areas of contemporary American literature, and is particularly interesting because of the relatively high percentage of female writers of high quality. This course aims to give an overview of Asian American literature, with texts chosen from the main genres (prose, poetry and plays) and across the period of the last half-century or so (but focussing on the past two decades). Central to the course will be the outlining of the specific thematic concerns of this literature, but also the assumptions underlying the term "Asian American Literature" itself. The relationships between society, culture and text will be foregrounded, and related issues discussed, such as the divergence of viewpoints between writings of recent immigrant experience and those produced by writers born in America, and the intersections between Asian American literature and American literature as a whole. The lecture schedule for this semester is also available , with links to Dr Turner's lecture/tutorial notes.

Search Rethinking Schools Help Home Archives Volume 17 No. 1- Fall 2002 The Age Poem: Building a Community of Trust By Linda Christensen Poetry is a political action undertaken for the sake of information, the faith, the exorcism, and the lyrical invention, that telling the truth makes possible. Poetry means taking control of the language of your life. Good poems can interdict a suicide, rescue a love affair, and build a revolution in which speaking and listening to somebody becomes the first and last purpose to every social encounter. I would hope that folks throughout the U.S.A. would consider the creation of poems as a foundation for true community: a fearless democratic society. June Jordan Building a community that might contribute to Jordan's "fearless democratic society" is no small accomplishment in most classrooms. Over the years I've learned that poetry helps move students to listen and care about each other while they build literacy skills. Too often community building happens in the opening days of the school year. Teachers and students engage in a series of games designed to foster group skills and bonding, but in my experience, these activities drop off after the first week - as if community is established with one or two activities. In addition, these opening strategies are frequently divorced from the content area. Creating a community of learners is not at odds with building literacy skills in a language arts classroom. We don't need to put aside words to develop a classroom where students can share their lives.
