1 The Social Life of Poetry
2 Modern and Contemporary Poetry and Poetics Modern and Contemporary Poetry and Poetics promotes and pursues topics in the burgeoning field of twentieth- and twenty-first-century poetics. Critical and scholarly work on poetry and poetics of interest to the series includes social location in its relationships to subjectivity, to the construction of authorship, to oeuvres, and to careers; poetic reception and dissemination (groups, movements, formations, institutions); the intersection of poetry and theory; questions about language, poetic authority, and the goals of writing; claims in poetics, impacts of social life, and the dynamics of the poetic career as these are staged and debated by poets and inside poems. Topics that are bibliographic, pedagogic, that concern the social field of poetry, and reflect on the history of poetry studies are valued as well. This series focuses both on individual poets and texts and on larger movements, poetic institutions, and questions about poetic authority, social identifications, and aesthetics.

8 Series Editor s Foreword The Social Life of Poetry concerns the multiple dimensions and uses of U.S. poetry; it is a work contributing to our knowledge of cultural pluralism and regional diversity. Chris Green has made a model archival, textual, institutional, and cultural study of four books of progressive poetry coming from and standing with Appalachia works of the 1930s and 1940s by West, Stuart, Still, and Rukeyser. Green offers the socially and politically textured story of a richly articulated circuit from production to dissemination/circulation and then to conditions of reception, at every step weighing motives, goals, contexts, and agents, and with acute scrutiny evaluating poetry s uses, applications, interventions in this region and beyond. Looking at socially active groups, the ideology of cultural pluralism and its defenders, educational institutions with high regional stakes, individual poetic producers, publishers involved in the marketing of mountain writing, and critics and commentators interpreting texts for a variety of social goals Green s book illuminates the intermeshing of their resources, politics, and hopes. The book reads the network of motives and outcomes with a great sense of their intricacy, treating white ethnic and African American communities in Appalachia and Jewish and progressive communities in New York and elsewhere. Green views regionalist activist poetry as a mode of cultural intervention. This methodologically acute work of literary criticism in the mode of cultural studies examines a specific historical moment in which poetry became a mode of social explanation, educational enrichment, and local engagement.

9 Acknowledgments Drawing together insights from my work as a poet, a teacher of poetry (to people of all ages), an editor, a reviewer, a scholar, and a theorist, this book is the result of a single inquiry I made as a young Kentuckian in 1985: Where do I live and how does poetry live here? Foremost, I extend deep appreciation to Dale Bauer whose belief, direction, laughter, and wherewithal allowed me to pursue that inquiry while working on my dissertation. I thank her for all she has done to make room for world-loving scholarship in the academy. For aid in developing the manuscript, I extend thanks to Janet Badia, Edwina Pendarvis, Jim Gifford, Erin Kazee, Susan Barnett, Thomas De Pietro, John Young, Lachlan Whalen, Even G. Ward, Jim Lorence, Rachel Rubin, Jeff Biggers, James Smethurst, Janet Eldred, and Gordon Hutner. For their help in chasing down material I could not otherwise reach, I thank Kimmerle Green, Thomas DePietro, and Craig Hobson. And for his work in making Marshall University s English department the place that I was able (and wanted) to write this book, I extend my deep gratitude to David Hatfield. For their endless, blessed work, I extend appreciations to the ILL librarians at the University of Kentucky ( ) and Marshall University (Fall 2004 Spring 2009), without whom this work could not have been done. I also thank Ann Salter, head librarian at Oglethorpe University, who opened up new parts of the college archives at my asking. And I heap thanks upon Donna Baker, head of special collections, at Morehead State University for her aid in my work with images of James Still s book and for her work with Still s and Stuart s archives, for which she is a hero. For their grounding and guidance in Appalachian studies, I recognize Dwight Billings (whom can best be labeled a sage), Herb Reid, Shaunna Scott, Gurney Norman (whom we dare not label), and the entire Southern Appalachian Writers Cooperative (past, present, and future).
10 xiv Acknowledgments I hail those who taught me the literary theories upon which this book is based: Kathryn Flannery, Roger Mitchell, Linda Charnes, Leon Lewis, and all the many little magazines and small presses (and poets and editors) that I ve worked with over the last twenty years. For their absolutely essential support in terms of time and money, I thank the Marshall University Graduate Council and College of Liberal Arts, the University of Kentucky Graduate School, and the Gaines Center for the Humanities (where it all started). I also received critical financial assistance to complete the manuscript from the West Virginia Humanities Council, a state program of the National Endowment for the Humanities. Parts of this book have appeared in the following sources, and I am thankful for their permission to reprint: Headwaters: The Early Poetics of James Still, Don West, and Jesse Stuart. James Still: Critical Essays on the Dean of Appalachian Literature. Eds. Ted Olson and Kathy H. Olson. Jefferson, N.C.: McFarland, ; and The Tight Rope of Democracy: Don West s Clods of Southern Earth. Radicalism in the South Since Reconstruction. Eds. Chris Green, Rachel Rubin, and James Smethurst. New York: Palgrave Macmillan, Finally, appreciation goes to my parents (all six of them) for their love and patience, to my two children (Eleanor and Paul, whose tongues and hearts are West Virginian), and to my wife Jenny Hobson (whose attention has helped to shape every word in this book and in my heart).
