Biographical Information From Poetry Foundation website: Laura Riding, later known as Laura (Riding) Jackson, “was still in her thirties when she published her 477-page Collected Poems in 1938,” reported Paul Auster in the New York Review of Books. “At an age when most poets are just beginning to come into their own,” he continued, “she had already reached maturity.” Riding’s oeuvre included volumes of poetry, collections of critical essays and short fiction, novels, and the founding of her own small publishing firm, Seizin Press. In the 1920s and 1930s, as Auster related, she “became an important force of the international avant-garde.” Her work was highly praised by some distinguished critics, including Robert Fitzgerald, who wrote in the Kenyon Review, “Of all the contemporary poems I know, these seem to me the furthest advanced, the most personal and the purest.” Riding first came to public notice when she attracted the attention of the Fugitives, a group of American Southern writers centered at Vanderbilt University. Members of the group included John Crowe Ransom, Allen Tate, and Robert Penn Warren. Their activities included meetings for the reading and discussion of

poetry and philosophy, and they published their own poetry magazine, The Fugitive, which appeared from 1922 to 1925. They were searching for new criteria to apply to poetry, and Riding’s work suited them perfectly. In 1923 The Fugitive commended her first published poem for its “quality of originality,” and in 1924 hailed her work as “the discovery of the year.” She was soon invited to join the group, and her acceptance was announced in March, 1925, as cause for “general felicitations.” Several years later, working with the English poet and novelist Robert Graves, Riding furthered the aims of the group with A Survey of Modernist Poetry, “the implicit critical and theoretical principles of which,” noted A.T.K. Crozier in the Fontana Biographical Companion to Modern Thought, “she developed in two works of dazzling argument, Contemporaries and Snobs (1928) . . . and Anarchism Is Not Enough (1928).” The Survey introduced a new method for close textual criticism, showing that minute examination of a good poem finds within it truths not communicable in any other way. Its influence contributed greatly to the school of thought that became known as “The New Criticism.” Riding’s fiction is also important and “undeservedly neglected,” in the opinion of Nancy Carol Joyner and Allison Hersh, writing in the Reference Guide to American Literature. They noted that Progress of Stories, “marked by impressive variety and a somewhat flamboyant wit, is unlike her poetry in tone although it treats similar themes of truth, self, unity, and perfection. She has deliberately adopted a lighter vein for these stories, she explains in the preface, because she is tired of the accusation of obscurity and being made ‘a scape goat’ for the incapacity of people to understand what they only pretend to want to know.”

It is for her poetry, however, that Riding is best known, and her poems reflect her commitment to write with truth. “In poem after poem,” declared Auster, “we witness her trying somehow to peel back the skin of the world in order to find some absolute and unassailable place of permanence, and because the poems are rarely grounded in a physical perception of that world, they tend, strangely, to exist in an almost purely emotional climate, created by the fervor of this metaphysical quest.” Her poems “are highly compressed, intellectual, disciplined, and possess a number of other virtues no longer much in evidence. . . . At their best, they have some of the concentration of language so memorable in Emily Dickinson, while the syntactic difficulty and elaborate conceits [T. S.] Eliot did so much to revive have been practiced in her poems with remarkable effect,” remarked James Atlas in Poetry magazine. Box numbers are followed by folder numbers, in left-hand margin.
