}}William K. Hathaway (born 1944) is a contemporary American poet who has published ten collections of poetry with Ithaca House,[1] Louisiana State University Press, University of Central Florida Press,[2] Canios Editions, and Chester Creek Press.[3] His most recent book, Dawn Chorus: New and Selected Poems 1972-2017, was published in March 2018 by Somondoco Press. He currently resides in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania.[4]

Poetry

Hathaway is perhaps best known for his poem "Oh, Oh," which is included in many college textbooks, including The Bedford Introduction to Literature.[5] His poems have also appeared in several anthologies, including New American Poets of the '90s[6] and Disenchantments: An Anthology of Modern Fairy Tale Poetry.[7] In a jacket blurb for Hathaway's 1992 collection Churlsgrace, poet Hayden Carruth remarked, "when I finish reading a poem by Hathaway I feel smarter than I was before, not, as with most poems, stupider. . . . Hathaway has a rare intelligence, and when he writes he uses it--which is even rarer. May he be showered with blessings."[8]

In an interview with Adam Tavel at Poets' Quarterly, Hathaway comments that he considers much of his work to be in the lyrical tradition of Keats and Wordsworth, but that his more sardonic poems "take on a sort of “anti” voice, but with not a consciously subversive intention."[9] Much of Hathaway's early work is written in confessional free verse, as it addresses his struggles with alcoholism that "made a struggle of life,"[10] but the central focus of his oeuvre is nature and the rural landscape which remains "ceaselessly poignant."[11]

Career

Hathaway taught for over thirty years at several colleges and universities, including Cornell University, Union College, and Louisiana State University.[12][13]
