This dissertation examines the formation and early publications of the "Objectivists," a group of poets whose interrelations and aesthetic program have been inconsistently documented and frequently misunderstood. The "Objectivists" were a group of roughly thirty modernist poets writing in English presented by Louis Zukofsky in the February 1931 issue of Poetry magazine and the subsequent An " Objectivists" Anthology, published in 1932. While the group made little impact upon their initial appearance, several of these poets emerged from obscurity to publish significant work in the 1960s, forming an important bridge between Ezra Pound and other first generation modernists to various post-WWII schools in American poetry. Drawing heavily on contemporaneous archival material, this dissertation argues that the group's nucleation as "Objectivists" was not the result of a programmatic movement but a strategy to achieve reliable publication.

520 $a This dissertation examines the formation and early publications of the "Objectivists," a group of poets whose interrelations and aesthetic program have been inconsistently documented and frequently misunderstood. The "Objectivists" were a group of roughly thirty modernist poets writing in English presented by Louis Zukofsky in the February 1931 issue of Poetry magazine and the subsequent An " Objectivists" Anthology, published in 1932. While the group made little impact upon their initial appearance, several of these poets emerged from obscurity to publish significant work in the 1960s, forming an important bridge between Ezra Pound and other first generation modernists to various post-WWII schools in American poetry. Drawing heavily on contemporaneous archival material, this dissertation argues that the group's nucleation as "Objectivists" was not the result of a programmatic movement but a strategy to achieve reliable publication.
520 $a The section entitled "The Lives" gives a historical account of the group's formation beginning in 1928 and argues for the existence of an "Objectivist" core, consisting of Zukofsky, William Carlos Williams, Charles Reznikoff, George Oppen, Basil Bunting, Carl Rakosi, and Lorine Niedecker. In addition, it details the relationships of Ezra Pound, Robert McAlmon, and Kenneth Rexroth to the group and to Zukofsky and Williams in particular. The section also offers capsule biographies for the remaining "Objectivists," many of whom are lesser-known, and provides an extended biography of Carl Rakosi, the only core "Objectivist" without an extant book-length critical biography.
520 $a The section entitled "The Work" provides clear documentary evidence of the group's efforts between 1928-1935 to gain access to publication, paying special attention to a series of joint publishing efforts and detailing a series of overlapping relationships between Pound, Williams, Zukofsky and the editors of more than dozen little magazines. The section also provides detailed career publication histories for Niedecker and Rakosi. Much of the material in this section has not been previously examined or presented in detail.
