William Bronk and Family Jack Kimball Poetry that questions with clarity is rare. Poetry that questions such certainties as time and place and, more, deploys an abbreviated linguistic code to accent uncertainty this sort of poetry appears discontinuous and alien. Writers of this sort, like William Bronk, seem amused by their very connoisseurship of discontinuity, occupied by their own methods and objects of avulsion from known qualities, the knowability of qualities, indeed, the whole apparatus and artistry of knowing. A lineage of discontinuity Mentalist search Bronk's methods are nonetheless governed by an expansive bedlam of the psychically discontinuous and unknown, an anarchy which renders his poetic objects utopian. In the fourteen-line "Unnamed" Bronk reduces uncertainty to an agnostic purity housed in a slender sonnet, entered into by way of curt anapests leading directly to dark, iambic qualifiers: (1) In the narrowest and most immediate view, we are named and identifiable as persons, noted and notarized as such.

Bronk, the Alien Jack Kimball Poetry that questions with clarity is rare. Poetry that questions such certainties as time and place and, more, deploys an abbreviated linguistic code to accent uncertainty this sort of poetry appears discontinuous and alien. Writers of this sort, like William Bronk, seem amused by their very connoisseurship of discontinuity, occupied by their methods and objects of avulsion from known qualities, the knowability of qualities, indeed, the whole apparatus and artistry of knowing. To delineate a lineage for such discontinuity within 20th-century American verse, in addition to Bronk (1918-1999), as a first generation I might suggest Gertrude Stein, Louis Zukofsky and Jack Spicer, as well as their descendants associated with a "language" poetry whose aim is to undermine passive reception of culturally logical linguistic strategies. Even though Bronk favors stark language that obliterates discourse conventions, as do Stein, Zukofsky and Spicer, Bronk's standing in this lineage can be debated on grounds of his unsubversive syntax and transparent testimony. His verse is not so experimental, far simpler in its organization and argument than that of the others. With regard to experiment, for example, Stein has suggested more opaquely than would Bronk that in her writing she "was groping toward a continuous present, a using everything a beginning again and again" ("Composition as Explanation"). Compared to Stein's lengthy process-as-presence, Spicer's colloquies that talk to themselves, and Zukofsky's frenetic appropriation of Marx, Mallarme, et al., Bronk's discursive techniques and prosodic surface are markedly conservative. Bronk makes disciplined assertions, sometimes in poems of no more than three or four lines comprising the cool and classical: embedded anaphora ("Whether what we sense of this world / is the what of this world only, or the what / of which of several possible worlds / which what?"); aggravated apophasis ("...there are worlds but...no world..."); rampant paradox ("The carelessness of love is we take such care."); and antimodernist vocabulary that borders on the devotional in its embrace of "the world," of "we," of "man," of "God."

28. Altogether Other: Remembering William Bronk Remembering william bronk. by Nicholas Delbanco. I first met Bill bronkin the late 1960's, via the good offices of another late lamented http://www.artzar.com/worddock/alltogether.htm

Remembering William Bronk by Nicholas Delbanco Soon Bill and I started walking together (he didn't drive) and visiting and sharing meals; soon enough I came to recognize the cranky mastery of the man and his authentic passion for the world of words. I came to admire his poetry, his essays, his mother and sister, his cuisine. I relied on his expertise with melons, with flowers and gardens and local lore and paintings and photography and his detestation of fraud. Reclusive, he was generous to a fault with those with those arrived to sit at his feetand there were many he helped. With his stentorian whisper he proffered verse at my wedding; we traded visits and books. Bronk was a large and loose-limbed man, with the swinging gait and calloused hands of a farm laborer at least as much as "conventional" artist; it surprised me, always, to receive his spidery and miniscule handwriting, to read his compressed dense discourse and to learn how widely he traveled when he left familiar ground. For years we stayed in regular touch, and I mourn those afternoon on his porch, those evenings at our farm. But time and the river have done their slow work, and when I left that part of the world I saw little of him, alas. The last time was in Albany, after his first physical collapse; he seemed drained, dessicate but fierce and keen-eyed still. "Refiner's fire," I can remember thinking; it was as though he'd been through some self-engendered crucible and yet emerged intact. May his work endure as his body did not; may others remember and read...

29. Is This House Like A Second Skin To You This interview was excerpted from several hours of taped conversations made duringthree visits to william bronk's home in Hudson Falls, New York in the fall http://www.artzar.com/interviews/bronkpart1.htm

Friends of the Earth Earth feels like home but it is after all one of the planets of a star, in star-terms nearby - no nearness to us. And Mars? Venus? - A planet is home? How could we think of where we live - and it is where we live - in terms we call human? God bless us! Something is wrong. I can't put things together; atoms, too they have their distances, infinities in respect of their smallnesses. Balks are built into the system, balks are the base of it - our system, our way to materialize. At Home in the Unknown by Mark Katzman This interview was excerpted from several hours of taped conversations made during three visits to William Bronk's home in Hudson Falls, New York in the fall of 1996. He was suffering from respiratory problems and wed to an oxygen machine with a lengthy cord. Bronk spoke slowly between long pauses and gasps of air. When something reminded him of a poem, he'd boom it out in that unforgettable, authoritative manner which gave his public readings (rare though they were) such power. William Bronk was born in Hudson Falls, New York in 1918. He is a descendent of Jonas Bronck, for whom the Bronx is named. After attending Dartmouth College and serving in World War II, he took charge of his family's business, the William M. Bronk Coal and Lumber Company in Hudson Falls, which he ran until his retirement in 1978. He lived in his family's specious Victorian house virtually his entire life. He never had a driver's license. His house was a mecca for artists and poets.

Your Name Your Address Your Phone Number Your E-Mail Address Bronk, William (1918-1999) William Bronk is best known for his austere view of the world as well as writing style. His language—subtle, balanced in tone and diction, essential—is possibly the most distilled in all of twentieth-century American poetry. In addition, Bronk is always explicit visually and resonant musically. His work keeps alive a New England poetic tradition, evoking nature and the seasons, winter most of all, and delving into the nature of reality or truth. These concerns were firmly established early in twentieth-century American poetry by the New England poets Robert FROST and Wallace STEVENS, then later by, along with Bronk, Robert CREELEY and George OPPEN, and in the nineteenth century by Henry David Thoreau (an especially strong influence on Bronk), Ralph Waldo Emerson, and Emily Dickinson.

COURSE DESCRIPTION This course examines the intersection between technology and the humanities. We will consider the ways in which machines and tools change the way we think and live, by drawing on material from history, philosophy, and the arts. History reveals when and where mechanical innovations have occurred and how they have challenged and transformed societies. Philosophy asks us to consider how the introduction of a new tool into a situation leads us to reconsider our categories of thought and the limitations of humanity. The arts make use of tools of a time to express timeless human dreams and concerns. Is technology just a means to realize intentions that are inside us, or are these desires and wants revised because we live in a world made up of tools and devices? What aspects of humanity are extended by technology? What aspects are immune to the betterment promised by machines? These are the kinds of question this course considers.

What does it mean to call a contemporary American poet "metaphysical"? Is there a tradition of American metaphysical poetry? This course traces the trajectory of an Anglo-American metaphysical poetics, beginning with selections from the works of Renaissance and early modern English poets (such as William Shakespeare, John Donne, George Herbert, Aemilia Lanyer, and Thomas Traherne), then engaging in close studies of poems by Anne Bradstreet, Edward Taylor, Emily Dickinson, Walt Whitman, Wallace Stevens, T. S. Eliot, Marianne Moore, Elizabeth Bishop, Jack Spicer, Robert Duncan, William Bronk, Gustaf Sobin, Rosmarie Waldrop, and Susan Howe. This comparative approach will also involve examinations of cultural and poetic theories pertinent to the life and work of each poet.

Is the basis of metaphysical imagery "delight in disorder," as Robert Herrick’s poetry suggests; or does a metaphysical poetics derive from "the most heterogeneous ideas . . . yoked by violence together," as Dr. Johnson argues? William Bronk, winner of the 1982 American Book Award for poetry, was recently described by David Biespiel as "arguably the most metaphysical poet of his generation." What does it mean to call a contemporary American poet ‘metaphysical’? Is there a tradition of Anglo-American metaphysical poetry? Was there ever an early modern English metaphysical tradition in the first place? This graduate course investigates metaphysical writing from Donne to Duncan and Browne to Bishop by moving through a series of critical and creative reflections. The seminar provides, first of all, a close and critical study of the poetry and prose of those seventeenth century English writers who, in the conventional literary sense of

40. A Faithful Account Of Where I Live: The Letters Of Cid Corman And William Bronk A Faithful Account of Where I Live The Letters of Cid Corman andwilliam bronk an introduction, by David Clippinger. william http://www.iath.virginia.edu/dickinson/titanic/material/bronkintro.html

A Faithful Account of Where I Live: The Letters of Cid Corman and William Bronk an introduction, by David Clippinger William Bronk and Cid Corman began corresponding in 1951 at the very beginnings of Corman's now mythic journal, Origin. Over the twenty years of the journal, Bronk was a staple: his work first appeared in issue #2 (Spring 1951) as well as in twelve others including a Bronk "special issue" (April 1967) and the final issue, #20 (January 1971). Without the passionate and sustained support of Corman, Bronk's early poems may never have found their way into print. Nevertheless, the early letters between Bronk and Corman mask a layer of tension that seethes beneath the surface and would come to a head in the first letter of this selection, Bronk's letter dated the 1st of June 1961. The tension was fueled by Charles Olson's professed disdain of Bronk's work and, by proxy, Corman's commitment to publishing Olson and Bronk in Origin . As Olson writes in a letter to Corman (31 July 1951): I am sick of this sort of thing you show me from Bronk-the green of it, the green-sick, too-the bad-headedness, as well as the manners.
