WWWilliam Carlos Williams
William Carlos Williams (September 17, 1883 – March 4, 1963), also known as WCW, was an American poet closely associated with modernism and Imagism. He was also a pediatrician and general practitioner of medicine. Williams "worked harder at being a writer than he did at being a physician," wrote biographer Linda Wagner-Martin; but during his long lifetime, Williams excelled at both. Williams was born in Rutherford, New Jersey, a community near the city of Paterson.[1] His father was an English immigrant, and his mother was born in San Juan, Puerto Rico. He attended a public school in Rutherford until 1896, then was sent to study at Château de Lancy near Geneva, Switzerland, the Lycée Condorcet in Paris, France, for two years and Horace Mann School in New York City. Then, in 1902, he entered the University of Pennsylvania Medical School. During his time at Penn, Williams became friends with Ezra Pound, Hilda Doolittle (best known as H.D.) and the painter Charles Demuth. These...

Bruce Springsteen
Born on 23 September 1949, Freehold, New Jersey, USA. As the world\'s greatest living rock \'n\' roll star, Bruce Springsteen has unconsciously proved former Rolling Stone critic Jon Landau totally correct. Landau appeared smug and brave when he made the arrogant statement in 1974, \"I saw rock \'n\' roll future, and its name is Bruce Springsteen\". Prior to that, Springsteen had paid his dues, playing in local bands around New Jersey, notably with the Castiles, Earth, Steel Mill and Dr Zoom And The Sonic Boom, before he settled as the Bruce Springsteen Band with David Sancious (keyboards), Gary Tallent (bass), Clarence Clemons (saxophone), Steven Van Zandt (guitar), Danny Federici (keyboards), and Vini Lopez (drums). Following an introduction to CBS Records A&R legend John Hammond, Springsteen was signed as a solo artist; the company sensed a future Bob Dylan. Springsteen ignored their plans and set about recording his debut with the band Greetings From Asbury Park N.J.. The album...

EMEduard Mörike
Eduard Mörike *08.09.1804, Ludwigsburg, + 04.06.1875, Stuttgart Wenn heute Kulturjournalisten über Eduard Mörike schreiben, liest man Attribute wie Melancholiker, Hypochonder, vom Hang zu Grenzerfahrungen, dem Jenseitigen und der Parapsychologie, von einem gemütlich-verschrobenen Autor der schwäbischen Provinz, einem naiven Idylliker und vieles mehr. Fakt ist, dass Gedichte von dem am 8. September 1804 in Ludwigsburg geborenen Eduard Mörike in fast jeder seriösen Lyrikanthologie der deutschen Klassik zu finden sind. Als ein Mensch, der das ihm aufgeschwätzte Priestertum als Zwangsjacke empfand und sich von diesem Fehlstart ins berufliche Leben nie mehr erholen sollte, ließ er den angestauten Weltschmerz (Liebeskummer inbegriffen) in Verse fließen, die Alfred Biese 1927 in seiner „Deutschen Literaturgeschichte“ trotz des ihnen zugrunde liegenden trüben Lebenswandels als „unsterbliche Lieder“ von „ruhiger, heiterer Schönheit“ preist. Eduard Mörike wurde 71 Jahre alt. Sein Todestag viel...
