Since its founding in 1969 by William Packard, The New York Quarterly has been devoted to excellence in the publication of a unique and fervent cross-section of contemporary American poetry regardless of school of thought, style, or genre. Our only concern is to focus on the craft that underlies effective poetry writing. The New York Quarterly features works by both known and emerging poets. The NYQ Craft Interviews present the views of some of our most outstanding poets on the general subjects of style, prosody and technique. The issues are rounded out with an essay or two on the subject of contemporary American poetry that is both accessible and meaningful to readers, poets, students, and teachers of poetry alike. NYQ 10 features a craft interview with James Dickey; an editorial about poetry and madness; a Yevtushenko tribute; "The Translation of Poetry" by Marina Roscher; "Poetry Societies" by Marjorie Finnell; "Delmore Schwartz Notebooks" by Lee Valenti; an essay, "Figure, Ground and Open Field" by Christopher Collins; photos of Auden, Ruth Lisa Schecter, Quincy Troupe, Armand Schwerner, David Antin, and Ray Bremser; and poetry by James Lewisohn, A. Fredric Franklyn, Yevgeny Yevtushenko, Marjorie Finnell, Peggy Bowman, Andre Sedriks, Alan Hertz, Tamura Ryuichi, Jane Snyder, Stephen Ajay, Miriam Solan, Cynthia Macdonald, Ken Smith, David Francis, Hugh Fox, Susan Shawn, Daniela Gioseffi, Lawrence Raab, David Edgerton, Daniel Halpern, Helen Adam, Brian Swann, Anne Marx, Charles Bukowski, Linda Pastan, M. L. Rosenthal, and Erica Jong.
