词条 | Louis Oliver (poet) |
释义 |
Oliver was born on April 9, 1904, in Coweta, Oklahoma, which at the time was still part of the Indian Territories; his parents died when he was young and he was raised by relatives in Okfuskee.[3] He studied at the Euchee Indian School and then Bacone College;[4] unlike many of his contemporaries, he earned a high school diploma in 1926, an accomplishment that alienated some other Muscogee who accused him of "capitulating to the White Man's ways".[3] While living among the Cherokee in Tahlequah, Oklahoma, in the early 1980s, Oliver joined a writing group that included several published authors, and moved away from the more classical European forms of poetry that he had been practicing until then.[4] He became the author of two books of poetry, Caught in a willow net: poems and stories (Greenfield Review Press, 1983) and Chasers of the sun: Creek Indian thoughts (Greenfield Review Press, 1990). In 1987, the Este Mvskoke Arts Council of the Muscogee people gave him their inaugural Alexander Posey Literary Award.[4] He died on May 10, 1991, in Tahlequah.[4] One of his poems, about and in the form of a tornado, is included in the Wall poems in Leiden outdoor poetry project in Leiden, Netherlands.[5] References1. ^{{citation|title=The Encyclopedia of North American Indians|publisher=Marshall Cavendish|year=1997|volume=8|page=1017|contribution=Oliver, Louis Littlecoon}}. {{DEFAULTSORT:Oliver, Louis}}2. ^{{citation|title=The New Anthology of American Poetry: Modernisms, 1900-1950|first1=Camille|last1=Roman|first2=Thomas J.|last2=Travisano|publisher=Rutgers University Press|year=2005|contribution=Louis (Little Coon) Oliver, 1904–1991|pages=746–748|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=G8Gs8WmAmNYC&pg=PA746|isbn=9780813531649}}. 3. ^1 2 {{citation|title=Red on Red: Native American Literary Separatism|first=Craig S.|last=Womack|publisher=University of Minnesota Press|year=1999|isbn=9780816630226|contribution=Chapter 6: Louis Oliver: Searching for a Creek Intellectual Center|pages=187–211|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=EOYt0vlkuLEC&pg=PA187}}. 4. ^1 2 3 {{citation|url=http://www.hanksville.org/storytellers/older/LittleCoon.html|title=Oklahoma Author: Louis (Little Coon) Oliver (1904-1991)|work=Storytellers: Native American Authors Online|first=Karen M.|last=Strom|accessdate=2013-02-21}}. 5. ^{{citation|title=The Land of Good Deeds|first=Patrick J.|last=Crerand|publisher=University of Louisiana at Lafayette|series=Ph.D. thesis|year=2008|page=5|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=BXxbnD_ux2oC&pg=PA5|isbn=9780549627180}}. 10 : 1904 births|1991 deaths|20th-century American poets|Muscogee people|Native American writers|People from Coweta, Oklahoma|American male poets|Poets from Oklahoma|Bacone College alumni|20th-century American male writers |
