	Justice Review - Pleiades 25-2 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Justice was born in Miami, Florida, in 1925, when Miami was still a rather provincial city, though one with a real artistic life and some good libraries—not a bad place for a poet to grow up.
		Justice did graduate work at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (where he met his wife, Jean Ross, in a Chaucer course), Stanford (where he studied with Yvor Winters), and the University of Iowa (where he studied with John Berryman and Robert Lowell, and from which he received his Ph.D. in 1954).
		For many years Justice taught at the Iowa Writer’s Workshop (with brief intervals at other institutions) and then at the University of Florida, from which he retired in 1992, the same year that he was elected a member of the American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters.

	Ploughshares, the literary journal (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Donald Justice’s New and Selected Poems, which includes work from six of his earlier books and features fifteen new poems, begins with this two-line poem, entitled “On a Picture by Burchfield”: “Writhe no more, little flowers.
		It’s a befitting opening to the book, since there is something very abiding about the poems of Donald Justice, both in their subjects and in the very fluid sense of form that variously provides their ground, air, and horizon—their music here on earth.
		With a stylist as accomplished as Justice, it often seems, as a consequence of his music, that we are in the midst of sheer, pure content.

	Happiness: The Aesthetics of Donald Justice, Mark Jarman
		This sort of formal interest is always present in a poem by Donald Justice, at any stage of his career; part of the pleasure of reading him is in discovering what he is doing and finding out what he has discovered by doing it.
		Justice's Selected Poems, published in 1979, showed revision to be part of his aesthetic, and I think I can relate revision to the happiness of chance, for it is based on the belief that one can always have another go and find another outcome.
		Justice has seen fit to exclude poems from his previous books in his Selected and his New and Selected, and for reasons that are not always clear.

	Stephen Burt: An Unillusioned Life
		Justice discovered early on a way with trimeters, whose cautious motion fit his muted resolve; pentameters took him longer to master, though by the ’80s he had made them his own as well.
		Justice’s secular concentration on a general human fate perhaps helped to make him such a frequent model: he seemed simply more approachable, in matter as in manner, than other formal poets of his generation.
		Justice’s work (all his work, not just the “early poems”) presents in almost pure form some of the virtues of the “academic” ’50s, virtues that have as much to do with temperament as with deft craft.

	Guardian lit. \| Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Justice frequently writes about solitary figures whose lives are defined in the length of one poem.
		The human quality often evoked in Justice's work is less despair than paralysis, an uncertainty of destination in life or art.
		Justice often finds inspiration in the work of earlier poets or in various poetic forms; he uses these influences as molds to create surprising and inventive variations.

		Justice: Well, thank you, but the Vallejo itself is powerful and moving, and I was moved to try to borrow some of its power, I suppose.
		Justice: Absences, as far as I know, is not a borrowed voice, not beyond the first phrase, at least.
		Justice: Some of the poems in my second book, Night Light are probably more objective transcriptions of what would appear to be reality than anything I can remember, offhand, in the first book, or than most of the things in Departures.

	The memory of Donald Justice by David Yezzi
		The flowers in Justice’s poem come to represent the former life of the abandoned house, just as the sound of music emanating from the house in “June Recital” awakens for Loch’s sister memories of the lessons she used to attend there and of Miss Eckhart in her heyday.
		As Justice himself has written, this music, then, becomes a mnemonic device: “The emotion [in a poem] needs to be fixed,” he writes in “Meters and Memory,” “so that whatever has been temporarily recovered may become as nearly permanent as possible….
		Justice wrote elegant and insightful essays and illuminating memoirs that also attempt to “hold transient life” in various ways, but his real work was always in verse.

	'Collected Poems' by Donald Justice (washingtonpost.com)
		Donald Justice -- who died August 6 at age 78 after a prolonged illness -- has sometimes been likened to that old magician Wallace Stevens.
		His themes are the old reliables, the ones we never fail to respond to: memories of childhood and youth, elegies for the dead, portraits of the lonely, artistic and doomed, reflections on life's shadows and disappointments.
		The South, Justice has written "has only to be tragic to beguile," and many of his best poems look back on his school days, a long-vanished Florida, an elderly and "artistic" piano teacher, his parents and grandparents:

		Donald Justice was born in Miami, Florida, on August 12th 1925, the only child of Vasco and Mary Ethel Justice (née Cook).
		At a certain point, however, Justice decided that he might have more talent as a writer than a composer, and when he took his degree, in 1945, it was not in Music but English.
		However, Justice remained at Syracuse University for only three years, accepting a one-year appointment at the University of California at Irvine in 1970, and then, in the autumn of 1971, going back for a third time to Iowa.
