From this fact may have arisen his abiding love of nature, while his interest in poetry was probably affected by his mother's Canadian grade school education (lots of memorization of poems) and her ability to recite whole swatches of Longfellow and Tennyson verbatim.〔Arline A. Fleming (June 30, 1985). "Up Front With Paul Petrie", Sunday Journal Magazine of the Providence Journal Bulletin, June 30, 1985. 〕 In 1946 he attended Wayne State University, where he was a member of the Miles Poetry Group, earning a BA and an MA in 1950 and 1951, and where he began to write poetry in earnest. While still finishing his thesis, he was drafted into the army and spent the next two years in the Service, the latter half in Alaska reading newspapers for Intelligence. Upon completion of his military service, he went to the University of Iowa where he enrolled in the Iowa Writers Workshop, studying with Robert Lowell, John Berryman and Paul Engle, and earning his doctorate in 1957 with a dissertation in Creative Writing. For one year he taught in Nebraska, and for 31 years at the University of Rhode Island, during which period he spent sabbatical leaves in Devon, England, as well as several months in Settignano and Amsterdam. He was married to the artist Sylvia Spencer Petrie, a printmaker and former member of the (19 on Paper ) art group, who has also illustrated several of his books. They have three children, Philip, Emily and Lisa, and 5 grandchildren. 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「Paul Petrie」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
