	PBS Hollywood Presents: Collected Stories - On Writing - Delmore Schwartz
		At that time, Schwartz was only a furious echo of the man who'd been the most promising American poet of the generation that grew up during the Depression and came to prominence during the Second World War.
		Delmore (no one ever called him anything but Delmore) was born in 1913 to Romanian-born immigrant parents who had met on Manhattan's Lower East Side.
		In 1937, Delmore married Gertrude Buckman, whom he met when they were both studying literature at NYU, though it turned out she'd gone to George Washington High School with him and published her poems alongside his in the school poetry anthology.

		As a grown man Delmore came to believe that his mother had had children in order to hold on to her wandering husband.
		Delmore referred to his mother on different occasions as long-winded, verbal, self-righteous, possessive, harsh and nervous.
		Aunt Leah knew that there was this center of pity and remorse in Richmond, and she used it, she appealed to it, and she made it grow, but Richmond's pity and remorse did not keep him from being brutal and violent in what he said to her.

	Delmore Schwartz Journal Quotes
		Yet Schwartz's early promise was followed by a tragic decline and finally death in a midtown Manhattan hotel at the age of fifty-two.
		At the height of his fame, Schwartz proclaimed himself "the poet of the Atlantic migration that made America." Schwartz was an integral member of a circle of critics, poets, and novelists that included John Berryman, Robert Lowell, and Saul Bellow, who later memorialized his friend as the doomed poet Von Humbolt Fleisher in Humbolt's Gift.
		Drawing on interviews, an extraordinary collection of previously unpublished papers, Schwartz's brilliant satires of his friends and acquaintances, and his letters to Ezra Pound, William Carlos Williams, and many others, James Atlas creates a vivid portrait of Schwartz and brings to life the vital literary milieu of America in the thirties and forties.

	Klonsky & Schwartz, a CurtainUp review
		Schwartz’s poems pepper the two-hander, a piece already stuffed with arguments, ideas and questions -- about life, about poetry, about fear, about expression, about going crazy, and most of all, about friendship.
		As Schwartz’s mental state deteriorates along with his second marriage, he’s hilariously convinced that Nelson Rockefeller has stolen his wife and hears voices from the top of the Empire State.
		Klonsky and Schwartz's arguments are a strange mix of intellectual discourse and emotional outburst: from their rumination on just how much they lost when their parents left the Old World for New York to a panicky Schwartz's verbally attacking his wife about her supposed indiscretions.

		Schwartz's public career began auspiciously with the publication in 1938 of a collection of poems (and a titular short story, 1937) In Dreams Begin Responsibilities by New Directions (directed by James Laughlin and a major vehicle for new creative writing in the United States until Laughlin's death).
		Schwartz's second marriage, to Elizabeth Pollett, lasted from 1949 to 1957, but he wrote of it later that “I got married the second time in the way that, when a murder is committed, crackpots turn up at the police station to confess the crime” (James Atlas, Delmore Schwartz: The Life of an American Poet, 278).
		Schwartz's relationships with women were marked by over-idealization (read, an unanswerable demand for love coupled with insecurity) and consequent disappointment with actuality, as well as

	PoetryFoundation.org: Delmore Schwartz
		Born in Brooklyn to Romanian Jewish parents, DELMORE SCHWARTZ (1913--1966) is a tragic figure—a gifted writer who only fitfully fulfilled his potential before an early death.
		After the remarkable accomplishment of his first autobiographical poems and stories, which poignantly describe the sensations of childhood and the conflicted aspirations of the intellectual children of immigrants, he lived chaotically and pursued an eccentric career.
		Schwartz’s decline into paranoia and his lonely demise in a Times Square hotel were fictionalized by his friend Saul Bellow in Humboldt’s Gift (1975), and several of John Berryman’s Dream Songs elegize him.

	Klonsky and Schwartz, a CurtainUp review
		Imagining that his wife was stolen by Nelson Rockefeller and believing he was told what to do by Dybbuks (plural), Schwartz is nevertheless urged by Klonsky to think rationally, to recall his childhood as the son of irrational unhappily married Romanian immigrants.
		Schwartz’s mental instability is dramatized in fits and starts following his release from Bellevue as a kind of neurotic vaudeville act (shades of Smith and Dale on speed) as the two writers review the high and low points of their tight but testy relationship.
		When Schwartz was found dead, destitute and alone in a rat trap of a hotel room, it was Klonsky who came to the morgue to identify him.

	Schwartz, Delmore Criticism and Essays
		An American poet, playwright, and critic, Schwartz is best known for In Dreams Begin Responsibilities and Summer Knowledge.
		[Delmore] Schwartz's main theme has been what he calls 'the wound of consciousness.' Although he has not been able to push through to anything like the ruthless self-revelation of Lowell or Theodore Roethke, he has again and again stated the unrelenting moral crises which make it so necessary.
		His poetry relates them to the inescapable demands of the 'dog named ego,' the relentless insistences of the body ('the heavy bear that walks with me'), the weight of history and the physical world around us, pressures forever scrutinized by the eye of the protagonist's pervasive guilt.

		The rather derelict life of Delmore Schwartz (1913-1966) has proven more captivating than his work, his fame having been sealed by Humboldt’s Gift, Saul Bellow’s novel chronicling the poet’s early promise and late decline.
		Unlike some other flamboyant and troubled poets, though, Schwartz did not indulge his demons in his poetry.
		His poems deal with classic themes yet he did not ignore the problem of enfleshment as was the habit of most male poets of his generation.
