The Charles Olson Festival Honoring the Life and Work of Charles Olson:
August 12, 1995
Gloucester City Hall, Gloucester, Mass. A Report
[Special thanks to the Poetry Project Newsletter , where this report was first printed.] i. THIS FESTIVAL, which seemed to me under-advertised, certainly had no lack of attendance. The grand City Council Chamber of the Gloucester City Hall was packed from its main floor to its balcony curving around three quarters of the high-ceiling hall, despite nearly unbearable heat (and David McArdle pointed out that the heat was not inappropriate: Olson himself had stood in this same room to argue for the preservation of Gloucester on some equally sultry nights). The hall bore a festival banner beneath a colorful mural of historic Gloucester emblazoned with the words, "Build Not For Today But For Tomorrow As Well" (to which Creeley during his comments added, "and for yesterday") and enormous prints of Lynn Swigart's photographs from Olson's Gloucester (Louisiana State University Press). Though some of the attendees had traveled some distance to the conference-getting there however possible-what struck me most about this festival was its local presence.

    1. Introduction
    This finding aid represents a preliminary description of the papers of the American poet and theorist Charles Olson (1910-1970) as sorted and arranged by Dr. George Butterick between 1972 and 1986. Additional sorting and arrangement have been done since then, but the labelling and arrangement of files are essentially as they were left by him. Neither the categories nor the contents can be considered a final arrangement of the papers. Additional portions of the papers, not yet sorted, are not included in this finding aid, and are closed until further processing. Materials designated in this register as damaged and fragile may be used only in conjunction with the Curator. Olson's personal library, also held by the Special Collections Department, is not here described as part of the Papers but should be regarded by researchers as an important primary source. A card file is available that lists monographs and journal issues, together with an indication of the presence of Olson's annotations. Researchers should note that Butterick's "Olson's Reading: A Preliminary Checklist" (

    On Charles Olson
    Preface to Charles Olson: The Allegory of a Poet's Life , by Tom Clark
    ISBN: 1556433425, North Atlantic Books, paperback, $18.95
    This piece is 1750 words or about five printed pages long.
    To tell the story of a person's life is an art requiring both facts and determining intuition, a canniness as to how things fit or don't fit, and a wonder about it all that wants to realize an actual presence in a place and time, which are just as fragile, finally, as the images and words that may recall them. Olson's and my time was one still resonant with 19th century hopes, that we might have "better living through chemistry," for example, or that "self-improvement" was something quite possible, given hard work and a viable dream. I can still hear, no matter I would be rid of it, "Lives of great men all remind us/ we can make our lives sublime/ and departing leave behind us/ footprints in the sands of time..." Though it may be inaccurately quoted, I will not look it up.
    Like so much in that initiating edge of the American place, Olson was self-invented, made his world both with and of his mind insistently. One recalls W.C. Williams writing, "A new world/ is only a new mind./ And the mind and the poem/ are all apiece." Olson valued immensely what he spoke of as "mindedness."  I would take his sense of one's "second birth," that coming into the world as fact of oneself, to be the possibility inherent, "that we are only/ as we find out we are."  Just so the emphasis upon "the use," that which one makes of oneself and by oneself, the complement to the social body, the "polis," he equally kept primary.

    pg 64. Charles Olson. It's very strange because I suddenly was presented to Ezra Pound two weeks ago, after twenty years. And that was likeI don't knowit was not like your father or somethingit was like having an Umbrian angel suddenly descend upon you and ask you to be and be more than, well, just what you'd like to be. It was very beautiful the way the fierceness of Pound has settled down into a voiceless thing which only responded twice to me. Once I told a story of Ed Sanders, who has a beautiful picture that Pound at eighty would have a revival of life and have fifteen further years of power. The difficulty of talking to Pound is he doesn't talk anymore. He sits in an almost catatonic fix in silence. And the one word he said after I said that Sanders had that sense of him, he said, "Sanders has a sense of humor." [Laughter.] July 9, 2002 tue 10:15am

    25. Charles Olson And "Projective Verse"
    olson's definitions of Projective Verse, and Composition by Field.
    http://unix.cc.wmich.edu/~cooneys/poems/proj.verse.html
    [I've been reading a biography of Charles Olson, certainly the largest figure in American poetics since Pound and Williams, mentor to Creeley and others of the Black Mountain group, author of the Maximus poems, etc. (He's said to have been the first to use the word "postmodern", incidentally.) Olson wrote a manifesto called Projective Verse, (1) A poem is energy transferred from where the poet got it (he will have some several causations), by way of the poem itself to, all the way over to, the reader. . . . the poem itself must, at all points, be a high energy-construct and, at all points, an energy-discharge. So: how is the poet to accomplish same energy, how is he, what is the process by which a poet get in, at all points energy at least the equivalent of the energy which propelled him in the first place, yet an energy which is peculiar to verse alone and which will be, obviously, also different from the energy which the reader, because he is a third term, will take away? This is the problem which any poet who departs from closed form is specially confronted by. And it involves a whole series of new recognitions. From the moment he ventures into FIELD COMPOSITIONputs himself in the openhe can go by no track other than the one the poem under hand declares, for itself. Thus he has to behave, and be, instant by instant, aware. . . .

    will introduce a new generation of readers to a central modernist and post-modernist thinker in American letters. For the energy of the avant-garde literary project at mid-century, Olson is it. No one else has the excitement or range."Robert Hass "At last we have between two covers some of the most compelling theorizing in postmodern poetics and American Studies ever produced, from one of the defining figures in postwar American poetry. This is that rarest of books, a must-read for poets and scholars alike."Alan Golding DESCRIPTION (back to top) The prose writings of Charles Olson (1910-1970) have had a far-reaching and continuing impact on post-World War II American poetics. Olson's theories, which made explicit the principles of his own poetics and those of the Black Mountain poets, were instrumental in defining the sense of the postmodern in poetry and form the basis of most postwar free verse.

    Maximus to Gloucester; The Letter and Poems of Charles Olson to the Gloucester Times, 1962 - 1969
    Edited by Peter Anastas
    Foreword by Gerrit Lansing
    Review by Karl Young Maximus to Gloucester , a collection of letters by Charles Olson to The Gloucester Times , breaks all the standard parameters. In fact, if you set out to produce a book counter to the standard, you probably couldn't go farther than this, even if you invented the author, the publisher, the circumstances of publication. One of the unusual circumstances behind this collection is that the editor of the Times, Paul Kenyon, was sensitive and sympathetic to what Olson was doing. The letters were usually printed in generous format with photos and sidebars. Kenyon did not tamper with Olson's style, sometimes reproducing Olson's typewriter script. This may make the Times uniquely perceptive among American newspapers. How many editors in North America are willing to run letters in any kind of verse, particularly what would be for them a highly eccentric type of poetry (consider, for instance, Olson's habit of leaving sentences unfinished), and to publish them in such generous format? Anastas had an extended local readership in mind when publishing the book. The book's second purpose is to reintroduce Olson to Gloucester, this time as poet. Although Olson knew many people in Gloucester and had more friends there than most people do anywhere, his poetry was generally not read by Gloucesterites, except for the pieces in the

    Charles Olson's Life and Career Nicholas Everett O lson, Charles (1910-70), was born and raised in Worcester, Massachusetts, and educated at Wesleyan University and Harvard, where he studied American civilization. During the Second World War he worked for the Democratic Party and for the Office of War information as assistant chief of the Foreign Language Division. His first two books, Call Me Ishmael (1947), a study of Mellville's Moby-Dick , and The Mayan Letters (1953), written to Robert Creeley from Mexico where he was studying Mayan hieroglyphics, cover a range of subjectsmythology, anthropology, language, and cultural historyand use the fervent informal style that were to distinguish all his discursive prose. Olson's influential manifesto, Projective Verse, was published in pamphlet form in 1950 and then quoted generously in William Carlos Willams's Autobiography (1951). In the "projective," or "open," verse it recommends, which aims to transfer energy from the world to the reader without artificial interference, syntax is shaped by sound, not sense; sense is conveyed by direct movement from one perception to another, not rational argument; and the reader's rendition directed by freely varied spacing between words and lines on the page. Olson himself had started writing poetry in the late 1940s, and "The Kingfishers," the longest poem in his first collection, In Cold Hell, in Thicket
