New Directions Publishing Corp.<br />
80 Eighth Avenue<br />
New York, NY 10010<br />
USA<br />
http://www.nd<strong>pub</strong>lishing.com/home.html<br />
New Directions was founded in 1936,<br />
when James Laughlin (1914 - 1997), then<br />
a twenty-two-year-old Harvard sophomore,<br />
issued the first of the New Directions<br />
anthologies. “I asked Ezra Pound<br />
for career advice,” James Laughlin recalled.<br />
“He had been seeing my poems<br />
for months and had ruled them hopeless.<br />
He urged me to finish Harvard and then<br />
do 'something' useful.” Intended as a<br />
place where experimentalists could test<br />
their inventions by <strong>pub</strong>lication, the ND<br />
anthologies first introduced readers to the<br />
early work of such writers as William<br />
Saroyan, Louis Zukofsky, Marianne<br />
Moore, Wallace Stevens, Kay Boyle,<br />
Delmore Schwartz, Dylan Thomas, Thomas<br />
Merton, John Hawkes, Denise<br />
Levertov, James Agee, and Lawrence<br />
Ferlinghetti. Soon after issuing the first<br />
of the anthologies, New Directions began<br />
<strong>pub</strong>lishing novels, plays, and collections<br />
of poems. Ezra Pound and William Carlos<br />
Williams, who once had difficulty<br />
finding <strong>pub</strong>lishers, were early New Directions<br />
authors and have remained at the<br />
core of ND's backlist of modernist writers.<br />
And Tennessee Williams first appeared<br />
as a poet in the early Five Young<br />
American Poets.<br />
