About the Book

An 'American Genius', our '20th century Whitman'. Anne Sexton and Erica Jong both referred to Muriel Rukeyser as 'the Mother of Everyone'. To read her collected work is to track American history through the century and to question with her the particular nature of the American imagination. How Shall We Teach Each Other of the Poet? brings together the voices of scholars who have been challenged by the complexity and richness of Rukeyser's poems; former friends, colleagues, and students reflecting on their personal knowledge of the poet; and contemporary poets who probe the significance of Rukeyser as one who has 'mothered' their own poetry. The inclusiveness of this volume and the diversity of writers is in keeping with the fundamental spirit of Rukeyser.
