Podcast appearances and mentions of James Schuyler

"New Year is nearly here / and who, knowing himself, would / endanger his desires / resolving them / in a formula?" So asks James Schuyler in this episode's poem, "Empathy and New Year." No resolutions for me this year, but instead an indulgence, a gift to myself, and I hope to you: my friend Eric Lindstrom rejoins the podcast to talk once again about Schuyler, poetry, and friendship.Eric Lindstrom is Professor of English at the University of Vermont and the author of two books: Romantic Fiat: Demystification and Enchantment in Lyric Poetry (Palgrave, 2011) and Jane Austen and Other Minds: Ordinary Language Philosophy in Literary Fiction (Cambridge, 2022). He is now completing a third book, James Schuyler and the Poetics of Attention: Romanticism Inside Out, which would be the first scholarly monograph dedicated to Schuyler's work.Please follow, rate, and review the podcast if you like what you hear, and share an episode with a friend.

How should we deal with the fact that we have to read the lines of a poem in order, one after another—or, for that matter, that we have to live our days one after the other? That's some of what comes up in my conversation with Evan Kindley about Kenneth Koch and his funny, didactic, and haunting poem "One Train May Hide Another."Evan is an associate editor at the Chronicle Review. He is the author of two books: Questionnaire (Bloomsbury, 2016) and Poet-Critics and the Administration of Culture (Harvard UP, 2017). With Kara Wittman, he is the co-editor of The Cambridge Companion to the Essay (Cambridge UP, 2022). He is currently writing a "group biography" of the New York School Poets (of which Koch, along with previous podcast subjects Frank O'Hara, James Schuyler, and John Ashbery, is a crucial member), which is under contract with Knopf, and his essays can be found in such publications as The New Republic, The Nation, The New York Review of Books, and n+1.

"I can't get over / how it all works in together." That's the poet James Schuyler, towards the end of today's poem, "February," a favorite of mine, which I had the great fortune to talk about with an old and beloved friend, Eric Lindstrom.Eric is Professor of English at the University of Vermont and the author of two books: Romantic Fiat: Demystification and Enchantment in Lyric Poetry (Palgrave, 2011) and Jane Austen and Other Minds: Ordinary Language Philosophy in Literary Fiction (Cambridge UP, 2022). He's also the guest editor of two collections of essays: Stanley Cavell and the Event of Romanticism (Romantic Circles, 2014) and Ostensive Moments and the Romantic Arts: Essays in Honor of Paul Fry (Essays in Romanticism, forthcoming in March 2023). His essays have appeared in such journals as ELH, Studies in Romanticism, Criticism, Modern Philology, and Modernism/modernity. His most recent article, "Promethean Ethics and Nineteenth-Century Ecologies," published and available open access at Literature Compass online, was co-written with Kira Braham. Eric is completing a third book, James Schuyler and the Poetics of Attention: Romanticism Inside Out, and, from the gleanings of that project, assembling an uncreative, marginally scholarly commonplace called "'Now and Then': A Poetics and Commonplace of Intermittence."As ever, if you're enjoying the podcast, make sure you're following it and consider leaving a rating and review.

On March 27, 1926, Frank (Francis Russell) O'Hara was born in Maryland. He grew up in Massachusetts, and later studied piano at the New England Conservatory in Boston from 1941 to 1944. O'Hara then served in the South Pacific and Japan as a sonarman on the destroyer USS Nicholas during World War II.Following the war, O'Hara studied at Harvard College, where he majored in music and worked on compositions and was deeply influenced by contemporary music, his first love, as well as visual art. He also wrote poetry at that time and read the work of Arthur Rimbaud, Stéphane Mallarmé, Boris Pasternak, and Vladimir Mayakovsky. While at Harvard, O'Hara met John Ashbery and soon began publishing poems in the Harvard Advocate. Despite his love for music, O'Hara changed his major and left Harvard in 1950 with a degree in English. He then attended graduate school at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, and received his MA in 1951. That autumn, O'Hara moved into an apartment in New York. He was soon employed at the front desk of the Museum of Modern Art and continued to write seriously.O'Hara's early work was considered both provocative and provoking. In 1952, his first volume of poetry, A City Winter, and Other Poems, attracted favorable attention; his essays on painting and sculpture and his reviews for ArtNews were considered brilliant. O'Hara became one of the most distinguished members of the New York School of poets, which also included Ashbery, James Schuyler, and Kenneth Koch. O'Hara's association with painters Larry Rivers, Jackson Pollock, and Jasper Johns, also leaders of the New York School, became a source of inspiration for his highly original poetry. He attempted to produce with words the effects these artists had created on canvas. In certain instances, he collaborated with the painters to make “poem-paintings,” paintings with word texts.O'Hara's most original volumes of verse, Meditations in an Emergency (1956) and Lunch Poems (1964), are impromptu lyrics, a jumble of witty talk, journalistic parodies, and surrealist imagery. O'Hara continued working at the Museum of Modern Art throughout his life, curating exhibitions and writing introductions and catalogs for exhibits and tours. On July 25, 1966, while vacationing on Fire Island, Frank O'Hara was killed in a sand buggy accident. He was forty years old.From https://poets.org/poet/frank-ohara. For more information about Frank O'Hara:“Frank O'Hara”: https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poets/frank-ohara“To the Film Industry in Crisis”: https://poets.org/poem/film-industry-crisis“The Ongoing Influence of Frank O'Hara, the Art World's Favorite Poet”: https://www.artsy.net/article/artsy-editorial-ongoing-influence-frank-ohara-art-worlds-favorite-poetMeditations in An Emergency: https://groveatlantic.com/book/meditations-in-an-emergency/

My program today presents poems about February, about midwinter, as a time that stands as a kind of fulcrum for the season, as a point of transition between the Winter Solstice and the Spring Equinox. I read poems by Ezra Pound, Boris Pasternak, James Schuyler, Margaret Atwood, Ted Kooser,  Jayne Cortez, and Patricia Goodrich.  I end the program with one of my own poems.

This week, Nadia and Steve talk to writer Nick Mandernach (@ManderNick) about the specific topic of the poetry of Pulitzer Prize-winning poet James Schuyler. What does Nick appreciate in his poems, and what can we all learn from them to apply to our own writing? Did we think the art, literary, and criticism worlds would be so intertwined? Is "you lack charm" one of the greatest insults of all time or WHAT? And HOW on earth do you say this man's name?! Let's do this again some time!

Te muestra en una habitación en Londres; libros, un cuadro, tu sonrisa, una corbata de seda, traje. Y más. Es tan vos, y yo la veo todos los días (acá, en mi escritorio), aunque a vos no. El viernes pasado fue estupendo. Salimos, volvimos, nos volvimos locos. Vos te quedaste dormido. Yo también. Te despertó el perro y te vestiste y lo sacaste a pasear. Cuando te fuiste, yo dormía. Cuando me desperté llegué con lo justo al tren a una cena en el campo y a hablar sobre el éxtasis. Que yo creo que viene en dos variantes: la que ya conocés, “Ahora me siento en éxtasis”, como el extraño grito que solté el viernes pasado a la noche. Y un segundo tipo, que sólo se reconoce en retrospectiva: “Esa alegría que sentí, sin reparar en ella, cuando tenía los pies de él sobre mis piernas, o cuando al mirar para abajo, vi que se le habían cerrado los ojos achinados, eso también fue éxtasis. Y no siempre tiene que haber un bajón después”. ¿Creo en la perfectibilidad del hombre? Extrañamente (conozco lo bastante la desdicha), sí. En serio. Yo creo de verdad que las futuras generaciones van a poder vivir sin los momentos de angustia y miedo que conocimos entre nuestros accesos y paseos extasiados. La bola, tras el golpe, encuentra la buchaca. Vos sonreís algunos años atrás en Londres, yo he conocido el éxtasis y la calma: ¿vos no? Tratemos de entender, mi hermoso amigo que tenés torcida la nariz.

Neste Dia dos Namorados, sabemos que muitos não estarão perto da pessoa amada. Por isso, elaboramos um tema especial para o novo episódio da Rádio Companhia: a leitura de algumas das mais tocantes cartas de “Cartas extraordinárias: amor”, livro que reúne 30 textos emocionantes sobre o amor em todas as suas formas. Abaixo, confira as correspondências escolhidas e quem deu voz a cada um deles: * Lido por Jarid Arraes, “Um problema que enfrentamos”, de Mildred Loving para a União Americana pelas Liberdades Civis: Em 12 de junho de 1967, graças ao empenho de Mildred e Richard Loving, leis que negavam o direito ao casamento de casais inter-raciais se tornaram inconstitucionais em todo o país, seguindo a decisão unânime da Suprema Corte dos Estados Unidos. A decisão histórica do processo Loving contra Virginia teve início nessa carta, enviada por Mildred em 20 de junho de 1963. * Lido por Tati Bernardi, “Estou amputando você”, da pintora Frida Kahlo para o também pintor Diego Rivera: O casamento de Frida e Diego era famoso por ser turbulento e imprevisível. Em 1953, um ano antes de sua morte, Kahlo teve uma perna amputada devido a uma gangrena. Enquanto aguardava a cirurgia, ela escreveu essas palavras, cheias de raiva (e paixão) para Rivera. * Lido por João Silvério Trevisan, “Eu estou profundamente apaixonado por você”, do poeta vencedor do prêmio Pulitzer James Schuyler para o pintor John Button. No começo dos anos 1950, o escritor James Schuyler conheceu o pintor John Button e se apaixonou por ele. Eles trocavam cartas regularmente. * Produção: Paulo Júnior e Camila Berto Apresentação: Mariana Figueiredo Edição: Paulo Júnior

Brooklyn-based Spencer Finch recreates or approximates many different phenomena, both manmade and natural, visual and physical. Poetry is a great influence on his work and even a model for creating forms, experiences and installations that are as succinct and evocative as a string of words seemingly effortlessly stitched together, but to great effect. In this conversation with Mackie Healy, recorded in his studio in Gowanus, New York, Finch discusses his discovery and love of Dickinson’s work alongside that of WH Auden and James Schuyler among others. In addition to being an artist-in-residence at Emily Dickinson's home in Amherst, Massachusetts, Finch has in the past made many homages to her poetry including the short verse, Before I got my eye put out, for which he measured the sunlight in her garden and recreated the effect of a passing cloud by means of fluorescent tubes covered in gel and suspended theatre filters. The resulting work is entitled Sunlight in an Empty Room (Passing Cloud for Emily Dickinson, Amherst, MA, August 28, 2004) (2004). He also created a monumental public work of coloured glass panels for the Morgan Library and Museum’s Gilbert Court, titled 366 (Emily Dickinson’s Miraculous Year) commemorating the year 1862, in which Dickinson completed 366 poems in 365 days. Although all of her 1,800 poems were published posthumously, Finch still consider Dickinson a rich archive of ideas, as well as an important moral guide: “Almost all of my titles of the past five years come from Emily Dickinson, it is an endless source.” Poem excerpts: WH Auden, The Shield of Achilles (1953); The Cave of Making (1965) Emily Dickinson (1830-1886), There's a certain slant of light; She sweeps with many coloured brooms; This is the land the sunset washes; The grass so little has to do; The outer from the inner; The brain is wider than the sky; A bird came down the walk; If I can stop one heart from breaking

Sorry, Tree (Wave Books) and Something Bright, Then Holes (Soft Skull Press) and Women, The New York School, and Other True Abstractions (University of Iowa Press) Critic David Lehman has called the New York School of Poetry "the Last Avant Garde." Poet and critic Maggie Nelson suggests it might better be considered "one of the first gay avant gardes," since its original members included Frank O'Hara, John Ashbery and James Schuyler. We examine the role of women in the New York School: Barbara Guest, Alice Notley, Bernadette Mayer and Eileen Myles. How did these women pave the way for today's women poets, who, like Maggie Nelson, are conscious of gender and its effects on poetry?
