Scope and Contents of the Materials
William Stanley Merwin (1927-2019) was an American poet, translator, essayist, activist, playwright, and conservationist. The W.S. Merwin Papers contain correspondence, manuscripts (poetry, prose, verse-plays, translations, and reviews), proofs, photos, clippings, notebooks, published works, ephemera, and financial and legal records documenting Merwin's life and work from 1943 until his death in 2019.
Merwin's collected correspondence extends to hundreds of individuals, both personal and professional, documenting interactions with his family, as well as publishers, editors, literary agents, readers, government agencies, translation partners, and botanical dealers. Notable correspondents include Robert Bly, Rita Dove, T. S. Eliot, Allan Ginsberg, Ted Hughes, Stanley Kunitz, Denise Levertov, and Adrienne Rich, among others.
The materials in the collection date primarily from his college years onward, but documents generated by his family and his genealogical interests do supply some juvenalia and other records back to the nineteenth century. Published works are supplemented by additional purchases; these have been cataloged and can be browsed in Primo.
Collection Historical Note
W.S. Merwin (1927-2019) was born in New York City and raised in New Jersey and Scranton, Pennsylvania. A 1947 graduate of Princeton University, Merwin pursued a multi-faceted literary life which traversed from Majorca to London, Boston, and New York, and to houses in Lacan de Loubresiac, France, and on the island of Maui. Never settling into a teaching position, he supported himself mainly through his writings and readings.
The successful reception of his activities as poet, writer, environmentalist, political actor, and Zen adherent positioned Merwin within multiple networks of artists, academics, and cultural figures. Merwin was awarded the PEN Translation Prize in 1969, Pulitzer Prize for Poetry in 1971 and 2009, a National Book Award in 2005, and was appointed Poet Laureate of the United States in 2010. His papers not only painstakingly document his compositional methods and stylistic evolution, but they also echo and amplify interactions and conversations important, generally, to the exchange of ideas in post-war America.
Biographical Note
W. S. Merwin is one of America's most distinguished writers, praised for his poetry, his prose, and his translation of foreign literary works into English.
