	DISCOVERING ADELAIDE CRAPSEY: CONFESSIONS OF A CONVERT
		Crapsey's papers and poems had been donated to the University, and there was no-one interested enough to catalogue them and introduce them to the public.
		Not because Crapsey helped write it, and not because her college friends were reminded of Crapsey when they read it, but because it is a very careful account of how a child victimized by institutions and destined to help perpetuate a system which robs people of their individuality develops independence in a patriarchal world.
		The upshot of this visit was that Draper was not aware that Crapsey was trying to tell her that she was dying, and that the function of the poem was to reveal and conceal at the same time it eternalized the situation.

	Cinquain.org - Theory of the cinquain
		Adelaide Crapsey did not directly address the form she had invented in any of her writings so critics have had to examine the cinquains themselves and ancillary materials from the Crapsey papers when speculating on her intentions for the form.
		It is unclear how well Crapsey understood the complexities of the haiku and tanka traditions beyond metrical considerations, but one might surmise that the juxtaposition, compression, and restraint found in her cinquains represents partly the influence of these Japanese forms on her own.
		Just as Crapsey's burgeoning talent was cut short by her disease so the best cinquains take advantage of a similar tragic sense in their execution within a form that has been fashioned with disturbing accuracy in the image of its creator.

		Adelaide was especially close to her father, then a popular member of the city’s clergy who worked for the reform efforts of the Social Gospel movement.
		Such mistreatment of Algernon Crapsey must have distressed his loyal daughter, but she was so controlled and private a person that no such emotion is evident in her letters or poetry.
		Adelaide Crapsey died in October, 1914; the poetry born of her suffering still lives.

		Given the extraordinary circumstances in Crapsey's invention of the form, specifically, her imminent demise and her concentration on the idea of a life suddenly cut short, we may not need to feel overly constrained by this criterion, which may have undergone further development or even omission had Crapsey not died so untimely.
		The original Crapsey cinquains also are mainly comprised of short sentences; in which case, initial capitalization for the beginning of the sentence and terminal punctuation should be normative.
		Crapsey's only other rule for the form that I believe compels consideration in modern cinquains is that the poem should build to the 4th line and "fall back" on the 5th - much like the kireji in haiku.

		Adelaide Crapsey (1878-1914) is often considered merely a minor poet in literary circles.
		Apart from the mechanics of the form, Adelaide’s major achievement was to take the ‘imagist’ idea one stage further, introducing into the cinquain a ‘turn’ or final line ’surprise’ or ‘contrast’, that leads to a heightened awareness, or as a lasting conclusion to the poem.This aspect makes it memorable and lives with the reader.
		Over the past three decades, as Adelaide Crapsey’s work has become more widely known, her American cinquains have now become the equivalent ‘English’ form of the tanka and her doublet the ‘English’ equivalent to the three line haiku.

	Alibris: Adelaide
		Adelaide Hall is the missing link in Harlem's Renaissance, historically the richest period of American fl culture.
		Teacher and Poet, Crapsey's interest in meter and rhythm led her to devise a new verse form, the cinquain, a five-line form of twenty-two syllables.
		Her own selection of cinquains and verses in other forms was published posthumously and was embraced by the younger generation of literati.

	The Adelaide Crapsey Collection
		Her cinquain with twenty-two syllables in five lines in the order 2-4-6-8-2 has the extreme compression and geometrical symmetry of the oriental stanzas, but in spirit and form it is her own.
		The Adelaide Crapsey Collection includes Adelaide's notebooks, work sheets, some of her letters, preliminary drafts of her work on metrics, letters addressed to her, scrapbooks containing reviews of her posthumously published first edition, letters of condolence and personal tributes from friends, and the several printed editions issued from 1915 to 1938.
		Many years ago, when Rochester seemed to have forgotten her, I used to linger by that little stone marked "Adelaide" in the Crapsey lot near the southeast corner of Mount Hope, where she was buried on an autumn afternoon forty-seven years ago.

	Those Women Writing Haiku Chapter Two
		However, the interest in her poetry became so great that in 1922, Alfred A. Knopf published a second edition which was reprinted in 1926 and 1929 and a third edition was published in 1934 and reprinted in 1938.
		Adelaide Crapsey is credited, not only with these first experiments with Japanese literature, but she is recognized as one of the earliest Imagists.
		None of these women: Adelaide Crapsey, Harriet Monroe, Hilda Doolittle, Amy Lowell, or Florence Ayscough had the goal of bringing the haiku form, as such, to American poetry, but were far more enthusiastic about spreading the haiku spirit and techniques of haiku writing so that other poets would incorporate this in their own newer works.

	Submission Guidelines
		Also, while the inventor of the cinquain was strongly influenced by haiku, cinquains are not haiku and the unnatural omission of articles, prepositions, conjunctions, etc., which is acceptable in English language haiku is not appropriate in cinquains.
		However, in fact, Adelaide Crapsey was an Imagist and, consistent with their school of poetry, generally eschewed regular meter for the intrinsic musicality of the verse.
		In short, the editor holds that there is no set metrical requirement for cinquains, but the lines must flow with a natural rhythm and musicality that matches the meaning carried by the images.
