Extractions: Louisiana " ROBERT NASH OGDEN , a lawyer by profession, was born in Baton Rouge, La., May 5, 1839. He served with distinction in the Confederate army. Since the reconstruction era, he has been prominent in the politics of Louisiana, and especially during Governor Wiltz's administration, when he was Speaker of the House of Representatives of the State. He is best known as an orator, but has confined his talents to no one field. He devotes much of his leisure to light literature, and has written an interesting novel, entitled Who Did It? (1886). He is, at this writing, one of the Judges of the Court of Appeals of New Orleans." [Thomas M'Caleb, The Louisiana Book: Selections from the Literature of the State 574 (New Orleans: R.F. Straughan, Publisher, 1894)] Ogden "was a man of recognized oratorical powers, which showed at their best during political campaigns. He was one of the principal speakers supporting Samuel Douglas McEnery during the memorable, statewide and strenuous anti-lottery fight, when Hon. McEnery was a candidate for governor in 1892. He was one of the judges of the Circuit Court of Appeals, New Orleans, serving two terms of four years each, and then retired from politics, and engaged in the practice of law."

Features Yes Virginia there is a Santa Claus and The boy who laughed at Santa Claus by ogden nash.
http://members.tripod.com/~KindHearted_Xmas/christmas.html

Extractions: Virginia, your little friends are wrong. They have been affected by the skepticism of a skeptical age. They do not believe except they see. They think that nothing can be which is not comprehensible by their little minds. All minds, Virginia, whether they be men's or children's, are little. In this great universe of ours, man is a mere insect, an ant, in his intellect as compared with the boundless world about him, as measured by the intelligence capable of grasping the whole of truth and knowledge. Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus. He exists as certainly as love and generosity and devotion exist, and you know that they abound and give to your life its highest beauty and joy. Alas! how dreary would be the world if there were no Santa Claus! It would be as dreary as if there were no Virginias. There would be no childlike faith then, no poetry, no romance to make tolerable this existence. We should have no enjoyment, except in sense and sight. The external light with which childhood fills the world would be extinguished.

"The Limerick Is Furtive And Mean..."
From the Maigue poets to ogden nash, witty wordsmiths have delighted in composing the oftrisquÃ© five-line verses. Introductory article.
http://www.smithsonianmag.si.edu/smithsonian/issues02/sep02/limericks.html

Extractions: "Hickory, dickory, dock, a mouse ran up the clock...." So vivid is the imagery and so strong the rhyme and meter that even the most poetically impaired can supply the last lines to this charming bit of doggerel. It has enthralled children since its publication in 1744. Like a lot of well-remembered poetry, it is a limerick. Limericks are essentially word puzzles in light verse, more often than not infused with sexual innuendo. Nobody wrote wittier ones than Ogden Nash, whose ingenious poetic playfulness complemented the form. Many know his "I would live all my life in nonchalance and insouciance, were it not for making a living, which is rather a nouciance." The five-line verse probably originated from the limerick-makers of Croom, known as the Maigue poets, who flourished in the 18th century. They were schoolteachers, priests and self-styled persons of letters, living within 20 miles of this southwestern Irish village. Their gatherings at inns and taverns were called poets courts, to which new members were invited by "warrants" to drink, recite, and often sing, their verses. The verse form that the Maigue poets helped foster became an energetic dimension of the Irish cultural landscape. Centuries before step-dancing swept across our stages, sailors from around the world landed in Cork and made the short journey north to the taverns of Limerick. And while there's no concrete evidence to suggest how the limerick spread from continent to continent, the following explanation is offered by an anonymous bard:

Extractions: Picture courtesy of the United States Postal Service Poet Ogden Nash is to be honored with the first stamp to be issued at the new first-class rate of 37 cents. It will come out about August 18, 2002 to honor the centennial of his birth (100 years after his birth). A gentle satirist, Nash poked fun at human shortcomings without pessimism. He wrote on many subjects, but all of his poems expressed his dry wit and demonstrated his playfulness with language. Poems by Ogden Nash Photo courtesy of Linell Nash Smith and Isabel Nash Eberstadt Born on August 19, 1902 into a family that prized education, Ogden Nash was the next to youngest of five children (two girls and three boys). His maternal grandfather was a renowned educator and devout feminist in Louisville, Kentucky who started his own school and educated his own three daughters who applied in the 1870's to Harvard and other East Coast Ivy League colleges using only their initials for their first names on the applications. The daughters all were accepted until it was discovered they were women! This is important because it demonstrates the importance placed on a complete education by Nash's family, the basis for Nash's lifelong love of the classics, languages (including French, German, and Latin), and writing. When he was 7 years old, Nash developed a serious eye infection that required he stay in bed in a darkened room for nearly a year. He was not permitted to use his eyes, so his mother not only read to him to help pass the time but also took on his schooling. This latter activity developed an extraordinary memory that would serve Nash well in his adult life as a poet and writer.
