Biography of Marianne Moore Marianne Moore (1887 - 1972) Pulitzer Prize-winning American poet, highly esteemed by her fellow colleagues. Moore's often-quoted advice in 'Poetry' was that poets should present for inspection "imaginary gardens with real toads in them". Characteristic for her works is cryptic zigzag logic, eccentric rhythms, and ironic wit. Her best-known poems feature animals and are written in precise, clear language. Moore was a friend to many of the greatest artists and writers of the 20th century, such as T.S. Eliot Ezra Pound E.E. Cummings , and Allen Ginsberg. I, too, dislike it: there are things that are important beyond all this fiddle. Reading it, however, with a perfect contempt for it, one discovers in it after all, a place for the genuine. (from 'Poetry', 1921) Marianne Moore was born near St. Louis, Missouri, as the daughter of an engineer-inventor. Moore was brought up with her brother in the home of her grandfather, the Reverend John R. Warner, the pastor of Kirkwood Presbyterian Church. Her father, John Milton Moore, suffered a mental breakdown before Moore's birth and was committed to a psychiatric hospital; she never met him. In 1896 the family moved to Carlisle, Pennsylvania, where Moore's mother, Mary Warner, worked as a teacher at the Metzger Institute, a private girls's school. "The passion for setting people right is in itself an afflictive disease. Distaste which takes no credit to itself is best."

Marianne Moore Marianne Moore was raised on a farm in Iowa. She attended Colorado College where she began her studies of biology while also taking four years of performance piano. She earned her B.A. in Biology cum laude there in 1975. Moore received her M.S. in Animal Ecology from Iowa State University where she specialized in limnology. Via a Fulbright Fellowship, she then explored zooplankton behavior in New Zealand lakes with and without fish. Returning to the U.S.A., she helped direct the Iowa Lakes Survey which ranked over 100 lakes and reservoirs according to restoration priority. Traveling east to New England, she began her dissertation work at Dartmouth College where she examined predator-prey interactions between an insect predator and lake zooplankton. After receiving her Ph.D. in 1986, she completed a 2-year postdoctoral appointment at Miami University where she investigated effects of toxicants on zooplankton as well as supercooling strategies of stream and lake invertebrates. Limnology and Oceanography Freshwater Biology Aquaculture Trends in Ecology and Evolution , and Hydrological Processes . She is currently investigating the penetration of artificial night lighting into lakes and its effects on movements and trophic interactions among zooplankton and fish. This work has been described in recent articles in the Boston Globe New York Times Christian Science Monitor Discover

Awards Calendar Journal Poetry in Motion ... Resources Tribute: Marianne Moore Back Bonnie Costello gave the following introduction to the PSA's "Tribute to Marianne Moore" at the Boston Public Library, on November 6, 1997. Henri Cole, James Fenton, and Grace Schulman read at the event. "[H]e who gives quickly gives twice / in nothing so much as in a letter" wrote Marianne Moore in an early poem, "Bowls," about the possibility of precision in an age of rapid transit. Moore's correspondence was prompt but never hurried, and the record of exchangesnot only with family and friends, but with the major writers and artists of her timeis a study in passionate deliberation. Her correspondents included T. S. Eliot, William Carlos Williams, Wallace Stevens, Ezra Pound, e.e. cummings, H. D., Elizabeth Bishop, W. H. Auden, and Louise Bogan, and artists such as Alfred Stieglitz and Joseph Cornell. "A cross-section of one's correspondence would seem to imply" the disorder of life, Moore admitted. But in her letters, as in her poetry, we "learn that we are precisionists, / not citizens of Pompeii arrested in action." She could imagine otherwise. Hers was, she would admit, a "grassless, linksless, languageless country" where there were "no proofreaders, no silkworms, no digressions," but the soil was fertile and the excellence of modern art took root in it. In 1915, after some of her poems had been accepted by the avant-garde magazine

Entries Publication Data Advisory Board Contributors ... World Civilizations The Reader's Companion to American History MOORE, MARIANNE , poet, critic, translator, and literary magazine editor. Moore lived most of her life in New York City where she supported herself and her mother with income from free-lance writing; because it was difficult for a woman to earn a living in writing and publishing, she also taught business writing and held other odd jobs. Although at times patronizingly considered a "proper old maid" and a "precise" poet by her male contemporaries, she was an important figure in modern letters by the 1920s, having published her first collection, Poems (1921) and assumed the editorship of Dial magazine. In the latter role, from 1925 to 1929, she edited and published the fiction, poetry, and criticism of T. S. Eliot, I. A. Richards, William Carlos Williams, E. E. Cummings, Hart Crane, D. H. Lawrence and W. B. Yeats. She also wrote many reviews of contemporary poetry. Her own poems, often drastically revised from one printing to another, are characterized by a mathematical or quantitative formalism by which the number of syllables and complex internal rhymes and rhythm, rather than stresses or end rhyme, determine stanzas. Undergraduate studies in biology at Bryn Mawr College (A.B., 1909) inform her many poems about animals, some of which were begun in notebooks and accompanied by fanciful or scientifically accurate sketches. (These notebooks are at the Rosenbach Foundation in Philadelphia, part of a major Moore collection.)

She was a devoted baseball fan and was invited to throw out the first ball at the start of the 1968 season at Yankee Stadium. In 1935, T. S. Eliot wrote that her poems are "part of the body of durable poetry written in our time, in which an original sensibility and an alert intelligence and deep feeling have been engaged in maintaining the life of the English language." Many of Moore's poems have been compared to the metaphysical satires of John Donne, in which the initial idea has been extended by metaphors to new dimensions, expressed in pure language.

20. Poetry marianne moore's famous poem. http://www.palace.net/~llama/poetry/poetry

Poetry I, too, dislike it: there are things that are important beyond all this fiddle. Reading it, however, with a perfect contempt for it, one discovers in it after all, a place for the genuine. Hands that can grasp, eyes that can dilate, hair that can rise if it must, these things are important not because a high-sounding interpretation can be put upon them but because they are useful. When they become so derivative as to become unintelligible, the same thing may be said for all of us, that we do not admire what we cannot understand: the bat holding on upside down or in quest of something to eat, elephants pushing, a wild horse taking a roll, a tireless wolf under a tree, the immovable critic twitching his skin like a horse that feels a flea, the base- ball fan, the statistician nor is it valid to discriminate against 'business documents and school-books'; all these phenomena are important. One must make a distinction however: when dragged into prominence by half poets, the result is not poetry, nor till the poets among us can be 'literalists of the imagination'above insolence and triviality and can present for inspection, 'imaginary gardens with real toads in them', shall we have it. In the meantime, if you demand on the one hand, the raw material of poetry in all its rawness and that which is on the other hand genuine, you are interested in poetry.
