abstract:This article aims to reconcile William Carlos Williams's emulation of Ezra Pound's tenet "make it new" with the seemingly antithetical underworld myth that pervades his poetry. Interpreting Kora in Hell and "Asphodel, That Greeny Flower" through the lens of trauma theory permits readers to locate hell in a space that is simultaneously subjective, and therefore new, but which also provides a systematic understanding of violence and death in his work. Kora and "Asphodel" thus draw mythic unity from this latter quality, rather than from the traditional association of Kora and the underworld with Greco-Roman myth narratives canonized in Western literature. Through the trauma reading of these texts, it is shown how the subjective hell myth provides Williams with an indirect language for re-integration after the experience of trauma. Subjective myth thus provides a way to speak around trauma as a therapeutic alternative to speechlessness.

abstract:This article recounts the recovery of an unpublished William Carlos Williams poem entitled "Moldy Skeleton" that is in the American Heritage Center at the University of Wyoming. Since this poem was found among correspondence in the Selden Rodman collection, the article examines the relationship that this poet and critic had with Williams. It considers Rodman's selection of Williams's poetry for several anthologies, as well as his published reviews of Williams's work. It also provides background about Williams's composition of "Moldy Skeleton." Besides publishing this poem for the first time, the article shares insightful commentary from several notable Williams scholars.

abstract :In this article reprinted from the William Carlos Williams Review 8.1 (Spring 1982): 8–41, the author traces the relationship between William Gratwick and his wife Harriet and the Williamses focusing on the impact on Williams of the farm at Gratwick Highlands in Linwood. The importance of nature and the pastoral to Williams's creative life as well as his health is emphasized, which he experienced intensely here through, in particular, Bill Gratwick's enthusiasm for the cultivation of tree peonies. The author subsequently reflects on the importance of this experience to Williams's writing of poems such as "The Yellow Tree Peony," a poem unpublished in Williams's lifetime, as well as reflecting on Williams's use of nature and nature writing in his battle with depression.

abstract:This article by Emily Mitchel Wallace is reprinted from the William Carlos Williams Review 9. 1/2, Centennial Issue (Fall 1983): 136–155. In it she traces the history of extracts from a poem designated as "The Satyrs" which subsequently found a place in Williams's "The Yellow Flower" and Paterson. The author then presents a line by line contextualization of Williams's focus on the figure of the Satyrs in Book Five of Paterson to engage with Williams's notions of the artist and the imagination.
本文由Emily Mitchel Wallace转载自William Carlos Williams Review 9。1/2,百年期(1983年秋季):136–155。在这本书中,她追溯了一首名为“the Satyrs”的诗的摘录历史,这首诗后来在威廉姆斯的《黄色花朵》和帕特森的作品中找到了一席之地。然后,作者在《帕特森的第五本书》中对威廉姆斯对萨蒂尔一家人物的关注进行了逐行的语境化,以融入威廉姆斯对艺术家和想象力的概念。
