Poet to Interpret History
Nancy Sullivan, poet and author of "The History of the World as Pictures," will read her own poetry today at 4 p.m. in the Jayhawk Room of the Union.
The 34-year-old poet is an assistant professor at Rhode Island College. She was born in Newport, R.I., in 1929 and lived in New York City for several years. She received a B.A. from Hunter College, an M.A. from the University of Rhode Island, and a Ph.D. from the University of Connecticut.
Miss Sullivan writes that the title poem of her book "began after I had read Ortega's theory that if you placed all the pictures ever painted next to one another in order, you would have represented there the history of painting. I decided that the history of the world might be represented by certain pictures from certain centuries. The poem traces our history from the B.C. cave to Pollock's post-war 'Number I.'"
Soph. Spree To Be Sunday
