6 Preface In putting together this collection of prose, written over a period of twenty years, I thought I had no choice but to adopt the method of the Roman Historian Ninius, who in compiling his History of Roman Britain made a heap of all that I found. Surprisingly, in the small heap made from these mostly occasional essays, I discovered a record of my most important literary in uences, those writers who not only helped me to develop a literary temperament but who also helped to socialize and humanize me. Literary in uence differs from the in uence of family and place, which are largely involuntary and often unconscious, and as such it is the story of a writer s deliberate attempt to nd and make something like a literary home. These essays outline part of my attempt to make such a place in the world of writing. They also acknowledge the luck, fortune, and grace that mysteriously preside over the process that has brought me closer to the thing I most wanted to become, a writer and poet. Not so surprisingly, I discovered that these essays, especially the shorter ones, are an expression of certain preoccupations I have had over the years with the language of poetry and its various traditions, and they re ect the materials I have used as a teacher of literature and writing. It is my hope that these preoccupations intersect in interesting and perhaps provocative ways with the history of my in uences as it stands so far. I m extremely grateful to Jay Parini for offering me the chance to compile these pieces, and to David Biespiel, who read the manuscript with careful attention, and to my wife, Katherine Branch, who encouraged me to nish the project and who gave me much editorial help.
