John Haines's Place as Ecopoet; Bibliography; Notes; About the Author; Index. 330 $a"John Haines arrived in Alaska, fresh out of the Navy, in 1947, and established a homestead seventy miles southeast of Fairbanks. He stayed there nearly twenty-five years, learning to live off the country: hunting, trapping, fishing, gathering berries, and growing vegetables. Those years formed him as a writer--the interior of Alaska, and especially its boreal forest--marking his poetry and prose and helping him find his unique voice. Placing John Haines, the first book-length study of his work, tells the story of those years, but also of his later, itinerant life, as his success as a writer led him to hold fellowships and teach at universities across the country. James Perrin Warren draws out the contradictions inherent in that biography--that this poet so indelibly associated with place, and authentic belonging, spent decades in motion--and also sets Haines's work in the context of contemporaries like Robert Bly, Donald Hall, and his close friend Wendell Berry. The resulting portrait shows us a poet who was regularly reinventing himself, and thereby generating creative tension that fueled his unforgettable work. A major study of a sadly neglected master, Placing John Haines puts his achievement in compelling context"--$cResume de l'editeur. 606 $aPoets, American$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01067794 606 $aNature in literature$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01034680 606 $aEcology in literature$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00901557 606 $aNature dans la litterature 606 $aPoetes americains$y20e siecle$vBiographies 606 $aEcology in literature 606 $aNature in literature 606 $aPoets, American$y20th century$vBiography 608 $aLivres nume?riques. 608 $aCriticism, interpretation, etc. 608 $aBiographies. 608 $aRessources Internet. 615 7$aPoets, American. 615 7$aNature in literature. 615 7$aEcology in literature. 615 0$aNature dans la litterature. 615 0$aPoetes americains 615 0$aEcology in literature. 615 0$aNature in literature. 615 0$aPoets, American 676 $a811.54 700 $aWarren$b James Perrin$0940780 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910164899003321 996 $aPlacing John Haines$92568491 997 $aUNINA
