    Biography
    Charles Olson was born in Worcester, Massachusetts, on 27 December 1910, to Karl Joseph and Mary Hines Olson. He attended Wesleyan University where he received a B.A. in 1932 and a M.A. in 1933. He continued his graduate studies at Harvard University from 1936 to 1938. His daughter Katherine was born during his first marriage, to Constance Wilcock. His second marriage, to Elizabeth Kaiser, produced a son, Charles Peter. Elizabeth, or Betty as she was known to her friends, died tragically in a car accident in March 1964. Charles Olson received several prestigious awards during his long career, including two Guggenheim Fellowships, in 1939 and 1948; a Wenner-Gren Foundation grant in 1952; a Longview Foundation award for The Maximus Poems in 1961; and an Oscar Blumenthal Prize (Poetry magazine), 1965. Charles Olson died from cancer on 10 January 1970.

    Maximus to Gloucester; The Letter and Poems of Charles Olson to the Gloucester Times, 1962 - 1969
    Edited by Peter Anastas
    Foreword by Gerrit Lansing
    Review by Karl Young Maximus to Gloucester , a collection of letters by Charles Olson to The Gloucester Times , breaks all the standard parameters. In fact, if you set out to produce a book counter to the standard, you probably couldn't go farther than this, even if you invented the author, the publisher, the circumstances of publication. One of the unusual circumstances behind this collection is that the editor of the Times, Paul Kenyon, was sensitive and sympathetic to what Olson was doing. The letters were usually printed in generous format with photos and sidebars. Kenyon did not tamper with Olson's style, sometimes reproducing Olson's typewriter script. This may make the Times uniquely perceptive among American newspapers. How many editors in North America are willing to run letters in any kind of verse, particularly what would be for them a highly eccentric type of poetry (consider, for instance, Olson's habit of leaving sentences unfinished), and to publish them in such generous format? Anastas had an extended local readership in mind when publishing the book. The book's second purpose is to reintroduce Olson to Gloucester, this time as poet. Although Olson knew many people in Gloucester and had more friends there than most people do anywhere, his poetry was generally not read by Gloucesterites, except for the pieces in the

    Contributing Editor:
    Thomas R. Whitaker
    Classroom Issues and Strategies
    It will be most practical to approach Olson after some detailed work with poems by T. S. Eliot Ezra Pound , and William Carlos Williams . Despite many stylistic similarities, Olson's poetic "enactment" dictates a different kind of progression and a different use of literary and other allusions. The teacher might suggest that the formalist concept of a "speaker" or "protagonist" (a character in a poetic drama outside of which the poem's maker is imagined to stand) might be replaced by the poet himself in the act of writing (a self-reflexive Charles Olson in the drama of making this poem). Although Pound's Pisan Cantos , Eliot's Four Quartets , and Williams's Paterson are partially amenable to this approach, Olson commits himself to it more fully in both shorter and longer forms. His abstract style, his refusal to commit himself to the modernist "image," may also be a difficulty. The student can be reminded that all speech, all thought, even an "image," is the result of an abstractive process. Olson characteristically works with syntax and conceptual reference that are "in process"often fragmentary, self-revising, incrementalas he struggles to "say" what is adequate to his present (and always changing) moment. Comparisons with Robert Creeley's often abstract and stammering forward motion may be illuminating.

    It should come as no surprise that the world's greatest novel would inspire the world's greatest essay of literary criticism. Sadly, Olson's ideas did not appeal to members of the elite Melville Society, and to this day they still consider him a "crank." A real pity, because Olson will be remembered long after they are forgotten. more...

    Collected Prose
    Charles Olson
    Edited by Donald Allen and Benjamin Friedlander
    University of California Press, $50, $19.95 (paper)
    by John Palattella Charles Olson was the first American poet to label himself "postmodern." By this he meant not simply that he succeeded modernists like T. S. Eliot, Ezra Pound, and William Carlos Williams. Rather, he aspired to move beyond them by besting their epic attempts to rejuvenate culture through literary experiment. Olson longed to produce an altogether new kind of cultural humanism. What he said of Herman Melville is equally true of himself: he "did not see man as measure of man, but as limit." Accordingly, in his epic, The Maximus Poems, Olson endeavored to language a world liberated from logic and classification, subjective habits of thought he believed had stifled Western consciousnessincluding that of the modernistssince the time of Socrates. Any reader who has reckoned with Olson during the past several decades has shouldered a difficult task, not the least because his Maximus boasts some patches of incredibly opaqueand lyricalwriting. Those who have turned to his essays to gloss the poetry haven't had much to work with: for years, the only volume in print that included any of Olson's numerous essays was the

    DESCRIPTION (back to top) A seminal figure in post-World War II literature, Charles Olson (1910-1970) has helped define the postmodern sensibility. His poetry is marked by an almost limitless range of interest and extraordinary depth of feeling. Olson's themes are among the largest conceivable: empowering love, political responsibility, historical discovery and cultural reckoning, the wisdom of dreams and the transformation of consciousnessall carried in a voice both intimate and grand, American and timeless, impassioned and coolly demanding. Until recently, Olson's reputation as a major figure in American literature has rested primarily on his theoretical writings and his epic work, the Maximus Poems . With The Collected Poems an even more impressive Olson emerges. This volume brings together all of Olson's work and extends the poetic accomplishment that influenced a generation.
