Rita Dove
Read the poem "Geometry"
Also known as: Rita (Frances) Dove, Rita Frances Dove
Born: August 28, 1952 in Akron, Ohio, United States
Nationality: American
Occupation: Writer BIOGRAPHICAL ESSAY In The Poet's World (1995), a collection of essays written during her l993-95 term as the United States' seventh Poet Laureate, Rita Dove makes a surprising declaration, "My pleasures are taken in the intimate details of life, the miracles of the ordinary." Dove's artistic range seems boundless, fed by her knowledge of world history and literature. But a generous spirit guides her intellectual curiosity: she does not want to learn facts or to observe art and artifacts; she wants to engage with the world and its people. Whether writing about herself, her grandparents, an ancient Chinese princess, a German woman widowed during World War II, mythological characters, the blues singer Bessie Smith, or even a fossilized fish, Dove brings readers closer to ourselves, our world, and each other. She has read widely and travelled extensively, but she also grounds her work in her own intimate, ordinary experiences as a daughter, granddaughter, wife, mother, African American, woman and teacher. As she observed in a l991 interview published in

http://www.elimae.com/essays/renner/error.html
The Objective Correlative and the Biographical Error
B. Renner In her fine 1989 essay "T.S. Eliot at 101" (collected in
While both statements may be true, they sidestep what is for me the more important issuewhether Eliot's defense of the objective correlative is validand turn instead to the wholly different issue of why he applied it in his own work and why he defended it so powerfully. That is to say, Ozick and the biographers leave the poems to take up the life. But Eliot's life is not his poetry, no matter how inextricably the two may be linked, and the poetry must stand or fall on its own merits, not on its usefulness as a tool in examining the poet's inner life. Readers only care about a writer's inner life because they have already been snared by his writings. For this reason Eliot's defense of the objective correlative is exactly correct, and we should not be concerned at all if he employed it as a mask to hide his emotions, but only if he employed it well.
In the closing pages of her essay Ozick delineates the shrinking of Eliot's importance and relevance and nods to the vast shifts in the processes of writers since the days when Eliot was god. But she does not return to the objective correlative and does not seem to realize that its formulation was perhaps Eliot's one major contribution to world literature or that it is an implement far too marvelous to be retired by one poet's biography.
