Mark Williams (writer)
(Clifton) Mark Williams (born 12 October 1951) MA (Hons) (''Auckland''), Ph.D (1983) (''British Columbia'') is a New Zealand poet, writer, academic, critic, editor of contemporary New Zealand literature. He is Professor of English at Victoria University of Wellington.
==St Peter's College==
He was educated at St Peter's College, Auckland.
Williams has written about his reaction to St Peter's after his Christadelphian background. "To me, on coming from a radically iconoclastic Protestant sect, the holy pictures and statues the Christian Brothers had crammed on every wall seemed utterly bizarre". "At midday we all knelt for the Angelus. Mass involved long periods of kneeling". Although he feels he escaped "the deep imprinting on the psyche of Catholic guilt", Williams was captivated by "those gothic images and rigid doctrines". "An absolute scale of values and vision is insinuated into one's mind" which may account "for the number of Catholics who become writers or artists".〔Mark Williams (ed), ''The Source of the Song; New Zealand Writers on Catholicism'', Victoria University Press, 1995, pp. 9 and 10.〕 While at St Peter's College, Williams started writing poetry and while there he entered a poetry contest judged by old boy poet Sam Hunt who wrote to him in response to his entry.〔Mark Williams, Dear Miss Williams, ''New Zealand Books'', Vol. 17, No 1, Autumn 2007, p. 27.〕
