Links P • O • E • T • R • Y The Chicago Renaissance in Poetry Dan Guillory Historical Research and Narrative T he Chicago Renaissance was a brilliant and diverse period of literary productivity having as its focal point several crucial events: the creation of Poetry: A Magazine of Verse (1912) and the publication soon thereafter of Edgar Lee Masters' Spoon River Anthology (1915) and Carl Sandburg's Chicago Poems (1916), two texts that could easily be credited with inventing "modern" poetry in the United States. The Chicago Renaissance may be narrowly defined as covering the period from 1900-1920, when its most characteristic productions appeared; but, broadly conceived, it embraces the years 1890-1925, including earlier writers and journalists such as Eugene Field, George Ade, Henry Blake Fuller, Hamlin Garland, Robert Herrick, and William Vaughn Moody. These early practitioners discovered the city of Chicago as a possible literary subject, and they were the first generation to document its unique scenery, speech rhythms, ethnic dialects, and diverse occupations. Let me stress, however, that the Chicago Renaissance is primarily, though not exclusively, a literary phenomenon. The preconditions that facilitated that great cultural explosion are deeply rooted in the history of the city itself, beginning perhaps with the first great moment of self-consciousness in April 1865 when the city of Chicago, draped with black crepe bunting, received the funeral train of Abraham Lincoln, as that tragic cortege made its way to the state capital of Springfield. At that time, Chicago was barely four decades old, but its justifiable sense of self-importance had been dramatically increased by the Civil War and by the emergence of "the Windy City" as a manufacturing center and transportation hub, especially for the rapidly expanding railroads. Then in October 1871, the Chicago Fire raged through the center of the city, creating momentary panic and devastation but leaving a

As a musical stylist, he is kin to such boundary-pushing folkies as Richard Thompson, Tim Buckley, Townes van Zandt, and Astral Weeks -era Van Morrison. Really. Everyone lumps him in with the alt-dot-country crowd, but he's not such an easy collar. Buckner has collaborated with members of Tortoise and Gastr Del Sol, and the way he makes his husky voice do these weird, intricate, controlled loop-dee-loops is as much Jeff Mangum or whirling dervish dude as it is George Jones or Appalachian mountain folk.
