The Pleasures Of Merely Circulating - The Pleasures Of Merely Circulating By Wal
Quoted in Slate magazine with an introductory note by robert pinsky. Includes a link to an audio file of robert pinsky reading the poem.
http://www.slate.msn.com/Poem/97-07-30/Poem.asp

Extractions: (posted Wednesday, July 30) To hear Robert Pinsky read "The Pleasures of Merely Circulating," click here The suave cadences of this poem, flirting with parody and nursery rhyme, show what a master of traditional meter Wallace Stevens wasthat mastery may have helped him to write free verse that is so unmistakably verse. The suavity, and the serious fear of meaningless mortality, includes the bawdy joke, which is also a philosophical joke, about Mrs. Anderson and the paternity question. What is philosophically arbitrary might in another sense be a matter of promiscuity. I believe that this poem is funnier, and more profoundly funny, if it is not psychologically played for laughs by the reader. (By a similar principle, Keaton did not rely on whistle slides or tuba blats as background music.) Robert Pinsky The garden flew round with the angel
Poetry And American Memory - 99.10
The poet laureate, robert pinsky, reflects on what our poetry can teach us about American memory
http://www.theatlantic.com/issues/99oct/9910pinsky.htm

Extractions: HO do we Americans think we are? This is a cultural question, and it is worth asking: many of the great issues in American public life are ultimately cultural issues. The relation of the well-off to the poor; the meaning and the future of race and ethnicity; the degree to and manner in which we share responsibility for the aged, the sick, the needy; even our mission and place among the world's nations: all these depend on our sense of ourselves as a people that is, as a cultural reality. In other words, these social issues depend on how we remember ourselves. Discuss this article in More on in The Atlantic Monthly and Atlantic Unbound.
Soundings - 98.11.25
An introduction to Jonson's My Picture Left in Scotland by robert pinsky. Includes Real Audio clips of readings of the poem by pinsky, David Ferry, and Gail Mazur.
http://www.theatlantic.com/unbound/poetry/soundings/jonson.htm

Extractions: To put the question more precisely, what vocal reality underlies the typographical convention of stopping at the right margin and returning to the left margin? ( Versus in Latin, from which the word "verse" derives, signifies the ploughman at the end of a furrow turning about to begin again, so that "verse" and "reverse" are closely related.) Here is a poem that seems particularly conscious of its own lines. The author, Ben Jonson (1572-1637), conveys in his title that a lady to whom he has given his picture (no small gift, in the days before photography) subsequently left that gift in Scotland (a wild, remote place, to a Londoner of the time no small distance to leave any valued object behind). In response, Jonson writes:

Extractions: 05:04 AM Mar. 18, 1998 PT Robert Pinsky, poet laureate of the United States, wants to create a lasting tribute to the power and place of poetry in the lives of Americans at the turn of the millennium - and he's looking for a way to build a gateway to it on the Web. Pinsky's ambitious effort, which will be launched with readings in five US cities as part of National Poetry Month in April, is called the Favorite Poem Project. Over the next two years, 1200 volunteers will be selected by Pinsky to record the poem they love most on audio and videotape for the archive, to be housed at the Library of Congress in Washington. The archive is slated for completion in the year 2000. The first public reading will take place on 1 April at Town Hall in New York City, with Geraldine Ferraro, singer Suzanne Vega, 60 Minutes host Ed Bradley and students from local schools.

Extractions: 06:51 AM Mar. 29, 1997 PT When Robert Pinsky becomes the country's next poet laureate in May, the official body of American poetry will get a technologically savvy face. After all, Pinsky has been the poetry editor for Slate since its inception, and he published an interactive novel, Mindwheel, back in the pre-hypertext days of 1985. Author of five acclaimed books of verse and a best-selling 1994 translation of Dante's Inferno, Pinsky explains that though poetry is the most venerable form of literature, and seemingly the most tradition-bound, it is the form most uniquely suited to the new electronic media, both metaphorically and technologically. Computers have "a natural alliance" with poetry, which is "designed like the computer in which speed and memory are enlarged," says Pinsky, who teaches creative writing at Boston University.

Wired News: Tech Breathes Life Into Poems
robert pinsky, poet laureate of the United States, hopes to transform poetry from words on pages to voices on the Internet with his Favorite Poem Project. By Joe Nickell. Wired News
http://www.wired.com/news/culture/0,1284,17993,00.html

Extractions: 03:00 AM Feb. 19, 1999 PT Like many traditional forms of expression, poetry has had trouble finding a place in modern culture. But Robert Pinsky, the United States' ninth poet laureate, thinks he knows how to breathe new life into the literary form, using equal parts modern technology and human spirit. "Unlike electronic media, the medium of poetry, which is one person's breath, is inherently, by its nature, on an individual and human scale," said Pinsky in an email interview while traveling to promote the Favorite Poem Project , an official project of the Library of Congress' bicentennial celebration. "An important aspect of the project is to demonstrate the relationship between the reader and the poem." To demonstrate that relationship, Pinsky, along with the New England Foundation for the Arts and Boston University , are recording Americans from first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton to John Doherty, a ditch digger from Braintree, Massachusetts reading their favorite poems. The readings are being archived online, and eventually the most compelling recordings will be housed in the Library of Congress.
