Authors Theodore Roethke (1908-1963) An Outline of American Literature by Kathryn VanSpanckeren American Poetry Since 1945: Authors: Theodore Roethke (1908-1963) Index The son of a greenhouse owner, Theodore Roethke evolved a special language evoking the "greenhouse world" of tiny insects and unseen roots: "Worm, be with me. / This is my hard time." His love poems in Words for the Wind (1958) celebrate beauty and desire with innocent passion: One poem begins "I knew a woman, lovely in her bones, / When small birds sighed, she would sigh back at them." Sometimes his poems seem like nature's shorthand or ancient riddles: "Who stunned the dirt into noise? / Ask the mole, he knows." Index

The Theodore Roethke Memorial Poetry Readings were begun in 1964 to honor his memory by bringing notable contemporary poets to the University of Washington campus to give a reading of their works and, when possible, to meet with students enrolled in the department's advanced poetry writing courses. The annual Roethke Readings, co-sponsored by the Department of English, the University of Washington Graduate School, and the Theodore Roethke Memorial Fund Committee, are normally scheduled on the Thursday in May closest to Roethke's birthday (May 25), and since 1972 have been held in Roethke Auditorium, 130 Kane Hall, on the UW campus. They are free and open to the public, and regularly attract large audiences of poetry lovers from around the Pacific Northwest. 40th Annual Theodore Roethke Memorial Poetry Reading May 22, 2003

Margaret Atwood Theodore Roethke Madison Julius Cawein Adrienne Rich Matthew Arnold Michael Stephens ... home Theodore Roethke I Knew a Woman I knew a woman, lovely in her bones, When small birds sighed, she would sigh back at them; Ah, when she moved, she moved more ways than one: The shapes a bright container can contain! Of her choice virtues only gods should speak, Or English poets who grew up on Greek (I'd have them sing in chorus, cheek to cheek). How well her wishes went! She stroked my chin, She taught me Turn, and Counter-turn, and Stand, She taught me Touch, that undulant white skin; I nibbled meekly from her proffered hand; She was the sickle; I, poor I, the rake, Coming behind her for her pretty sake (But what prodigious mowing we did make). Love likes a gander, and adores a goose: Her full lips pursed, the errant note to seize; She played it quick, she played it light and loose; My eyes, they dazzled at her flowing knees; Her several parts could keep a pure repose, Or one hip quiver with a mobile nose (She moved in circles, and those circles moved).

home about/aboot blogs/journals music/movies ... papers Theodore Roethke's "I Knew a Woman" for Professor Eisenhower September 30, 1997 Theodore Roethke focuses on a single woman in this poem, as is obvious from the title. This is a woman that he puts on a pedestal, but his description makes this seemingly grandiose praise apropos. To appropriate this description, he uses alliteration and diction. Each of these two devices contribute to the overall image of and emotions about this woman that Roethke knew. One way he accentuates his feelings about this woman is the repetition of the letter "s" in the front and middle of words throughout the poem, often in key places. The letter "s" is a soft sounding letter, especially as the first letter of a word. When a string of "s" sounds are strung together, there is a sinuousness formed in the reader's mind. Here, it represents the woman's body and her movements: a smooth, flowing order of movements that catch Roethke's eyes, with a softness as her essence. There are about 40 strong "s" sounds in this 28 line poem, with the word "she" being mentioned almost a dozen times (and "her" mentioned as many, stressing the importance of the person). The placement of these words is strategic, emphasizing the natural sound and feel to the poem as well as the natural softness to her disposition. In the third stanza, this is most obvious: "

HOME INTRO SYMBOLS ALMANAC ... WEBMASTER Theodore Roethke Born: May 25, 1908 Place: Saginaw, Michigan Died: August 1, 1963 Place: Bainbridge Island, Washington T heodore Roethke was born in Saginaw, Michigan, on May 25, 1908. His boyhood home was adjacent to a flourishing greenhouse business that was operated by Roethke's father and uncle. Theodore spent many of his youthful days in the greenhouse, playing and working in the colorful world of plants and flowers. Years later he would use images of this natural world and the greenhouse itself in his poetry. R oethke did well in school, exhibiting a talent for writing, and in 1925 he entered the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor. He enjoyed his college years, and found that his real talent in the field of writing was poetry. In his senior year he was elected to Phi Beta Kappa, and he graduated in 1929 to enter Michigan Law School. But somehow the study of law just didn't fit, so he decided to pursue a master's degree in literature at Harvard Graduate School. However, this was during the Depression, and his financial situation forced him out of his life as a full-time student. Roethke searched for a teaching position, and he was successful when he was hired by Lafayette College in Pennsylvania. He always enjoyed the academic lifestyle, and continued as teacher and student at several educational institutions, among them Harvard, Michigan State, Penn State, Bennington College, and Washington State. During these years, he devoted hours and hours to his writing.

Unlike the Whitman poem, however, there is no final easing up, and so "Dolor" feels somewhat heavy-handed... On the other hand, "long afternoons of tedium" could very well have been the inspiration for a phrase we all know and love, so who am I to complain? :) thomas.

Guest Essay Theodore Roethke As Teacher An Essay By Lorraine Schulmeister "And I dance with William Blake for love, for Love's sake." At the end of the summer, my friends returned to teaching and I was left with graduate school. I decided that if I were permitted to take Roethke's course, "The Study of Poetry" (not a graduate course), I would stay on for the year. Roethke made it possible to tolerate my graduate courses even as he ruined me for rigorous scholarship. At this time, Roethke was recognized by well-known poets and critics, but few outside this circle had heard of him. Few had read his poetry before entering the class. His reputation, however, was growing steadily. He had just been awarded the Eunice Teitjens Prize my Poetry (1947) and had recently returned from a Guggenheim Fellowship (1945). The only book he had published was Open House, those early poems that continue to be moving and have established Roethke as one of our most spontaneous poets. 1948 was a seminal year. The Lost Son and Other Poems appeared and was featured in all the university book stores. We pored over it, flattering ourselves that because we saw him in a poetry class three times a week, we had some special insight into its difficulty and esoteric knowledge of the man himself. Roethke became the focus of an exciting aesthetic endeavor. We knew from off-hand comments in class that part of his interest in teaching was to widen the audience for poetry: "Great poets must have great audiences" (Whitman).

T heodore R oethke - I K new A W oman "There is no poetry anywhere that is so valuably conscious of the human body as Roethke’s... He more than any other is a poet of pure being... When you read him, you realize with a great surge of astonishment and joy that, truly, you are not yet dead" (Bloom 117-118). James Dickey dubbed Theodore Roethke "the greatest American poet" in the essay above for the very joy contained in such poems as "I Knew a Woman." More than his many fine works, "I Knew a Woman" seems to exemplify this joy of pure being best. The first stanza is ripe with all the above mentioned types of word play. Word repetition appears four times in this stanza, including three of the first four lines. It is clear from the very start that Roethke is planning to play with the language and the reader. Words move around, reappearing, creating a sense of motion that permeates the entire work. " When she moved, she moved more ways than one, " he announces in line three, clearly stating that the poem will also move in many ways. Repetition appears again in stanza two and stanza three, but is clearly dominant in the first.
