	Francis Ponge - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Francis Ponge was born in Montpellier, France, in 1899.
		Francis Jean Gaston Alfred Ponge (March 27, 1899- August 6, 1988) was a French essayist and poet.
		Ponge avoided appeals to emotion and symbolism, and instead sought to minutely recreate the world of experience of everyday objects.

	Vesna Rodic McNair Scholars Program
		Ponge’s exploratory approach is consistent with Braque’s articulation of the nexus between the writerly and painterly projects: Braque insists that "to write is not to describe" and "to paint is not to depict," for "resemblance fools the eye." Ponge’s response: "Practically, it is a matter of language" (Ponge Méthodes 182).
		Ponge’s exploration of the material world shares with the surrealist project "an attempt to move beyond the limits of the real" (Baldick 217), as well as an attempt to explore the psychological base of material objects in pursuit of a subconscious register of human reality.
		Ponge wishes for language, inclusive of words and individual letters, to be considered as physical beings, with roots, with profundity, beings with four dimensions.

	Soap:Ponge, Francis; Dunlop, Lane:0804729557:eCampus.com
		The poet Francis Ponge (1899-1988) occupied a significant and unchallenged place in French letters for over fifty years, attracting the attention and admiration of generations of leading intellectuals, writers, and painters, a notable feat in France, where reputations are periodically reassessed and undone with the arrival of new literary and philosophical schools.
		Ponge's later work, from Soap on, is a very important tool in the questioning and rethinking of literary genres, of poetry and prose, of what is literature.
		Soap contains the sum of Ponge's aesthetics and materialist ethics and his belief in the supremacy of language as it becomes the object of the text.

		This letter was received from Barbara Wright:The following is the text of a letter from award-winning translator Barbara Wright on Lee Fahnestock's translations of the poetry of Francis Ponge.
		Ponge's imagination delves into the very being of the objects, he sees how even the most apparently insignificant of them is an integral part of the world we know, he shows us how the nature of inanimate things is intricately linked to all things animate, to all of us human beings.
		Ponge's poetic intentions may seem very serious - and they are - but he expresses seriousness in a joyous, often insouciant style, full of humor, lighthearted word play, puns, alliteration, allusions, imaginative contrasts.

		Three Fire Poems by Francis Ponge (from Le Grand Recueil: Lyres)

	Ponge/Stein
		The discussion that follows will concentrate on the short prose of two writers who began working in France during this period-- Gertrude Stein and Francis Ponge--and will draw examples primarily from Stein's 1914 collection Tender Buttons and from the "texts clos" of Ponge's Le Parti pris des choses, composed between 1924 and 1939.
		Whether or not it can be designated as the "origin" or the "center" of the present-day upheaval in civilization, the Paris in which Braque, Duchamp, and Ponge himself were working in the first decades of this century was the scene of revolutionary explorations into artistic representation.
		Although his arrangement is indeed schematic, and even in its highly qualified form does not appear to accommodate writers such as Kafka (for whom regret is a kind of assay), Lyotard's second category provides an adequate description of the efforts of Stein and Ponge, who make, on the chessboard of literary avant-gardes, decidedly offensive moves.

	Amazon.com: Soap (Meridian): Books: Francis Ponge,Lane Dunlop
		What Ponge has found here is a subject whose nature corresponds almost exactly to his writing style and his narrative method - perhaps this is what motivated him to linger over this particular piece for twenty years and to elaborate and refine it to an extent unfamiliar in his other works.
		Most prospective purchasers of this volume have probably more than a nodding acquaintance with French, since Ponge is known to American readers largely through the influence he has had on other writers and thinkers like Robbe-Grillet or Derrida.
		Because Ponge relies so much on wordplay and etymological affinities, the French text would have been useful.
