    Named U.S. Poet Laureate for 2004-2006, Ted Kooser is one of America's masters of the short metaphorical poem. Dana Gioia has remarked that Kooser has written more perfect poems than any poet of his generation. In Flying at Night: Poems 1965-1985, Kooser has selected poems from two of his earlier works, Sure Signs and One World at a Time (1985). Taken together or read one at a time, these poems clearly show why William Cole, writing in the Saturday Review, called Ted Kooser "a wonderful poet, " and why Peter Stitt, writing in the Georgia Review, proclaimed him "a skilled and cunning writer

    (Current) Research Projects ; fp 'The Perdita Project is a collaborative project funded until 2005 by the AHRB in conjunction with Nottingham Trent University and Warwick University. The Project has produced an online guide to over 500 manuscript compilations in collections around the world. The Perdita Project, established in January 1997 by Nottingham Trent University, has purchased a microfilm collection of about 400 manuscripts compiled by women in the British Isles. These manuscripts were compiled during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, and consist of poetry, religious writing, autobiographical material, cookery and medical recipes, and accounts. We have completed a catalogue, published on the Internet, which offers bibliographical information and detailed descriptions of contents for the information of historians and literary scholars. The catalogue also includes the team's research on the manuscripts and their compilers.'

    Sites about Persons ; au "Anne Bradstreet (1612-1672) is one of the most important figures in the history of American Literature. She is considered by many to be the first American poet, and her first collection of poems, "The Tenth Muse Lately Sprung Up in America, By a Gentlewoman of Those Parts", doesn't contain any of her best known poems, it was the first book written by a woman to be published in the United States. This website is intended as a homage to Mrs. Bradstreet and her work, and we have included several of her best poems, and her most famous quotes, in what we hope will be an enlightening, and entertaining experience, and will give some insight into the life of America's first woman poet."
