She states at the end that Robert Duncan ‘...has struck past his apparent flaws; I think he has found his own voice, and among the Miller-haunted writers of this coast, he is building the scene into poems, making experiment, music, debt, into a personal and widening art.” There are underlinings by Louise Kertesz in the article.

Dated February 11th, 1979. Cut-out of Anne Stevenson’s “With Head and Heart,” a New York Times review of The Collected Poems of Muriel Rukeyser and May Swenson’s New & Selected Things Taking Place. The article reviews Rukeyser’s poetry in complimentary terms, placing her in “a central tradition in American writing–Melville, Whitman, Crane, Snyder. But, like Melville’s, Miss Rukeyser’s realism is really a bridge to an intensely visionary state of awareness. The line between world and world is indistinct. The threshold of the miraculous and mystical is never far away. It is as if life were always happening to her on two or three levels. Beneath her passion for social justice and her empathy with all sufferers lie deeper apprehensions of what existence and its paradoxes can lead to… ‘No more mask[sic] ! No more mythologies!’ Miss Rukeyser cries in a poem called ‘Orpheus’ (from ‘The Poem as Mask’). But in truth, the coherent body of her poems comprises a mythology that poetry cannot do without. The body of symbol and belief which she has nurtured over the years has worn its masks memorably. All have been worth keeping, as Yeats’s masks were worth keeping….”.
Dated Sunday, January 21st, 1979. Cut-out of a review of The Collected Poems of Muriel Rukeyser by Jane Cooper, Washington Post. Cooper was poet in residence at Sarah Lawrence College. The review, which is on multiple pages, taped together, asserts: “The best thing the publication of The Collected Poems can do is to right a balance, to set the work of Muriel Rukeyser where it belongs, at the center of the poetry of her generation written in America. Once again now we can read all the poems of that first dazzling decade and understand why they were celebrated. Can we also manage to understand why, in the 15 or so years between the end of World War II and the publication of Waterlily Fire, the work came to be neglected, even disparaged? Our health depends on this understanding, too. My guess is that the New Criticism set up exactly the wrong standards by which to measure a poet of Muriel Rukeyser’s concerns. In the McCarthy era her political material was suspect. Was her very openness to the truths of her inner experience, “as in sex, dreams,” equally suspect? What did people want from a poet in the 1950s, especially from a woman poet?”
Unknown Date. A photocopied description of a movie about Rukeyser (available as video cassette and a 16mm film), focused on her life and poetry. (Library of Congress No. 78-701170). States that Muriel was rated as one of “The most interesting and individual poets” in 1935 by Stephen Vincent Benet. Describing Muriel’s work, it says, “Always a political poet, she selects those who demean the value of human life as her targets.” “When asked to talk about the obstacles a poet faced, Rukeyser mentions misunderstanding–misunderstanding from oneself, one’s family, the audience. Rukeyser strives to overcome these and the most recent barriers to her poetry, two disabling strokes… Muriel Rukeyser is continually challenged by the difficult job of writing poetry that reaches the people.”
Dated January 20th, 1981. A handwritten letter on three small pages from Denise Levertov to Louise Kertesz. States that Louise has done a good job publicizing the book and getting people’s attention. Denise suggests that Louise write to Hayden Carruth from the University of Syracuse (which Louise later does) and get him to review it. Says that one day, Louise’s book will be looked at as important. Also contains a photocopy, dated October, 1980, from Choice, of a description of Louise’s book. “Along with the recently published Collected Works …, this book should do much to locate Rukeyser within the pantheon of modern American poets. Whether or not the high praises Kertesz lavishes on the poetry will hold up in later years remains to be seen in further, possibly more disinterested, studies.”
Dated March 29th, unknown year. Postcard to Louise Kertesz from Mary Baldwin. States that Baldwin got a copy of the book, and that she loves it. She also thanks Louise for putting her in.
Envelope dated February 2nd, 1989, while the letter is dated February 1st, 1980. Letter is to Louise Kertesz from Hayden Carruth from the English Department of Syracuse University. Carruth acknowledges that he received both galleys and a finished book, and that everybody in the literary world, including Denise (Levertov?) is pushing him to do the ‘same sort of thing’, but he can't. He also states that he wrote a collective elegy for the poets who died last winter and spring, including Muriel, and that it will be published somewhere soon. Noteworthy lines: “Why don't the young assume some of the burden? If I sound old and peevish, I am. But of course I mean nothing personal.”

States that many of the people Louise approached were poets and writers. Piercy states that she usually does not read scholarly literature, and does not feel qualified to review the book. She then goes on to say that the book is not for a general audience, and that she spoke to Grace (most likely Grace Paley) and that she had a similar reaction to Piercy.
Envelope, undated, titled ‘Review by Richard Eberhart’. The review is complimentary, saying the lengthy book that Louise Kertesz wrote should be published to bring Rukeyser back into the national spotlight. Eberhart says the book should be published as is, and that many people and libraries would be interested in having and reading this book. “Louise Kertesz’s huge volume on Muriel Rukeyser’s poetry should not only be published, but it should prove to be a monument to the value of Rukeyser’s work to American culture. It vindicates her sometime neglect and misunderstanding through decades, and establishes the glory and splendor of her gifts not only to poetry, but in prose books as well. Her imaginative powers are well documented in the words of critics and used throughout.”
Dated July 19th, 1980. A letter from Layle Silbert to Louise Kertesz. Layle was a professional photographer who had some photos of the late Muriel Rukeyser. Louise’s name is spelled ‘Louis’ on the letter, and the letter starts, ‘Dear Mr. Kertesz’.

Dated October 25th, 1977. To Louise Kertesz from Kenneth Rexroth. The letter states his willingness to write a preface for Louise Kertesz’s book on Rukeyser, but he adds: “...but between you and me, I don't think the book is very satisfactory. It does not do Muriel justice. She is certainly the best poet of those now in their sixties; she is also the best US woman poet since Mina Loy and Laura Riding, and she is better than either, except for a very few poems of each. All this rehearsal of book reviews gives a completely false picture of anything except Stalinist-anti Stalinist politics and change in the Party Line itself. … Never forget–Muriel for a whole generation was, along with Patchen, myself and very very few others a rare US representative of the international idiom of modern poetry.” Compares her to Octavio Paz, Paul Eluard, Paul Celan, Eugenio Montale.

Dated August 23rd. 1978. A typed letter from Miriam M. Reik to Louise Kertesz. Miriam M. Reik, a former student of Rukeyser at Sarah Lawrence recalls Rukeyser’s”unorthodox: but “entirely common sensical” teaching style. She provides one example when the class was assigned Blake’s poetry: “When we came to class, presumably having read it, Muriel asked us to write a description of Newton on the spot. Surprised by the instructions, most of the students set about the task armed with a set of predictable ideas: Newton meant reason as opposed to imagination, science as opposed to poetry; Blake was a mystic and disliked Newton and said so; scientists like Newton looked a certain bespeckled way, and so on. So most of us described an appropriately dry, professorial-looking Newton in this impromptu exercise. When we finished, Muriel managed to jiggle all of these simplicities out of our heads, merely by passing around Blake’s painting of Newton, in which he looks rather like a Greek God, preoccupied with the wonderful symmetries of geometry. This strategy did not solve the question of the relations between science and poetry, and it did not offer a specific interpretation of Blake, but for anyone with half a brain, it set you down a new track, gave you new access to the poems, and broke down what Muriel has called ‘the resistances’ to the work of the imagination.”

Cooper apologizes for replying to the letter so late, and expresses elation that Louise Kertesz is writing a book about Rukeyser. The letter suggests names of former Rukeyser students to contact. “Muriel’s writing has always meant an enormous amount to me. She was the first contemporary woman poet I read, when I was 13 or 14 … Later, in the 50s & 60s, we taught together at Sarah Lawrence. Her course then was the “Orlando” course–a marvelous, unorthodox history of English literature, which used the Woolf work as a sort of frame, read both at the beginning & end of the year. and some checks are next to the names of the sources. Some handwritten notes are also on the letter.

Patchen had even less to do with the locals. The Beats publicity machine has obliterated the SF ‘renascence’--and, of course, they have no real connection with SF–they are New Yorkers. If Muriel wants to be connected with them, she’s crazy. I have spent 20 years trying to get them off my neck and out of my hair. She is an infinitely better poet than any of the Beats….

Dated April 6th, 1976, a typed letter from MIT professor Cyril Stanley Smith to Louise Kertesz in response to her inquiries about Willard Gibbs and The Traces of Thomas Harriot: “You ask about scientists’ views on W. G. Frankly, I have never met one who liked it. Most of them think that it is not the biography of a scientist. For all of its studies of incoming and outreaching influences, it fails to catch the intellectual experience of the scientist in finding and clarifying his problem and doesn't distinguish between the moments of insight and the hard work of verification and transmission” (underlined in red by LK). Suggests that both WG and The Traces “are somewhat questionable if they are judged by the standards of down-to-earth well disciplined science or history of science, and they may even me [sic] a bit unreliable as biography.” Suggests that the two books need to be supplemented by more critical scientific biographies.The letters are underlined and have handwritten notes by Louise Kertesz.
Dated April 12th, 1976, a typed letter from MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) professor Dirk Jan Struik to Louise Kertesz, in response to her inquiries about Muriel Rukeyser’s Willard Gibbs: “I never read Muriel Rukeyser’s book on Willard Gibbs, but did read that one on Thomas Harriot.
