S. merwin, whose long association with the magazine spans great years the poems of W. S. merwin have appeared in The Atlantic http://www.theatlantic.com/unbound/poetry/antholog/merwin/pdmerwin.htm

The Atlantic 's poetry editor reflects on the career of W. S. Merwin, whose long association with the magazine spans great distances of geography and art by Peter Davison August 28, 1997 O ver the past twenty-five years the poems of W. S. Merwin have appeared in The Atlantic Monthly 's pages more frequently than those of any other poet. The editors have been deeply attracted to the vivid movement and activity of his poetry, which seem to flow up from an underground river that lies beneath mere speech, as though written in some pre-verbal language of which all later languages have proved to be a mere translation. Here's a sample from a 1970s poem called "The Dreamers": a man with his eyes shut swam upward through dark water and came to air it was the horizon he felt his way along it and it opened and let the sun out Merwin's work has followed his life. Born seventy years ago in Union City, New Jersey, he was raised first in a Presbyterian rectory looking across the Hudson toward the towers of New York and then later in Scranton, Pennsylvania. He graduated in 1947 from Princeton University, where he learned from John Berryman, and set out for Europe to encounter the Romance languages. During the early 1950s he lived as a translator of Latin, French, Spanish, and Portuguese on Majorca (where he tutored the children of the poet Robert Graves) and in Spain, Portugal, and England. He eventually settled in the south of France and headquartered there during most of the 1960s, though after a time he spent parts of nearly every year in New York. Later he wandered into Mexico for several years. Since 1975 he has resided in Hawaii, where he maintains a miniature forest of trees and plants of species that are threatened elsewhere in the world.

ON READING W. S. MERWIN in the NEW YORKER I was reading a poem by W. S. Merwin in the New Yorker the other day and as usual I was feeling pretty intimidated by all those long lines he always writes and of course all the stuff that was going to be in there about how things look in New England especially in the fall and maybe even trout fishing and what it all means to the human soul on a universal level because Fall in New England is always dynamic and everywhere else is parochial but I decided to read his poem anyway because I thought maybe I could just stand it and he started in by talking about a barn door and some stones on a hillside and an old man hoeing the dirt which seemed allright to me even though it was as usual Fall in New England because I really liked the imagery he made which is something I always like because it puts pictures in my head even if I am parochial and never even seen New England in the Fall when he started in to saying as to how all this imagery really felt to him which also meant how his personal feelings were all about what the universal condition of man is and I got to thinking about how glad I was I wasn't in some English class again because those last five or six lines about universal New England consciousness are always the ones your freshman English instructor wants you to write a six page double-spaced paper on and I hate it when that happens James DeFord Return to Poetry Corner Merwin's Backyard
