In den WarenkorbZustand: Good. Letterpress on paper.2pp 40.5 x 30.2cm. .As published in Portfolio V , edited by Caresse Crosby. .See: "It carries the battle forward": An Unpublished Letter from William Carlos Williams to Edwin J. Becker, prisoner-poetTodd Giles.While many Americans expatriated to Paris or London in the first half of the twentie…th century to become writers, Edwin J. Becker waited until he was incarcerated in the New Jersey State Prison at Trenton from 1944 to 1948 for deceptive practices. Becker became a writer of some renown while in prison, writing two pulp fiction novels, freelance articles for men's magazines such as Field and Stream, and a few short stories in small magazines, including Caresse Crosby's Portfolio. He also wrote a play which was produced in summer stock, as well as an unpublished collection of poetry titled Chains of Shadow. Several established writers took notice of Becker's talent, taking up correspondence with him while he was in prison, including Crosby, Anaïs Nin, Henry Miller, and William Carlos Williams.In the letter Williams discusses the little magazine and its relation to American writers, a theme that was a constant concern throughout his lifetime. The idea that the little magazine should be connected to free speech and the health of the nation harkens back twenty-five years earlier to the first Contact manifesto (December 1920) in which Williams states: "We are here because of our faith in the existence of native artists who are capable of having, comprehending and recording extraordinary experience; we possess intellect sufficient to carry over the force of their emotional vigour. . . ." Further, "we still do not intend becoming spokesman for any movement, group or theory, and as thoroughly dislike a modern traditionalism as any manner of perceiving the arts" (1)William Carlos Williams ReviewVol. 27, No. 1 (Spring 2007), pp. 71-73 (3 pages)Published By: Penn State University Press.
