Dean Young (born 1955) is a contemporary American poet in the poetic lineage of John Ashbery, Frank O'Hara, and Kenneth Koch. Often cited as a second-generation New York School poet, Young also derives influence and inspiration from the work of André Breton, Paul Éluard, and the other French Surrealist poets. ==Life== He was born in Columbia, Pennsylvania. In 2008, Young became the William Livingston Chair of Poetry of the Michener Center for Writers at the University of Texas at Austin.〔http://www.utexas.edu/cola/depts/english/creative-writing/faculty.php〕 His most recent books are ''Bender: New and Selected Poems'',〔https://www.coppercanyonpress.org/pages/browse/book.asp?bg=〕 ''Fall Higher''〔https://www.coppercanyonpress.org/pages/browse/book.asp?bg=〕 and ''The Art of Recklessness''. In an interview,〔''Jubilat'', University of Massachusetts, Amherst, 2002. ISSN: 1529-0999.〕 Young said his poems are about misunderstanding and that tying meaning too closely with understanding is not the intent of his poetry. He finds the process of creation to be more important than the work itself, and that his poems are more demonstrations than explanations. He also finds that using mangled quotes from technical journals, as he experimented with in First Course in Turbulence, allows for a kind of collage in which tones confront each other. Citing Breton as a major influence, Young finds Surrealism useful in understanding the imagination and removing the boundaries between real and unreal. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dean Young (poet)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
