- W1996798839 abstract "During mass evacuation of Japanese in 1942, Nisei poet Toyo Suyemoto recalls in her 1983 essay Writing of Poetry, family and I were moved out of Berkeley to Tanforan Race Track in San Bruno, California, and that spring my dated poetry notebook shows an abrupt gap in my (75). The abrupt gap where poetry stalls behind Tanforan's fences serves as a reminder of potentially paralyzing obstacles to writing which Japanese Americans encountered during Second World War. But Suyemoto soon went on to write a substantial number of wartime poems and to publish them as well, seeing them into print both within and beyond Topaz, camp in which she and her family were interned after Tanforan. My aim here is to reopen that dated poetry notebook of her war years, and to open it as a question. How should we, do we, read both poems and gap today? Pre-poetically, by necessity: Ann Rosalind Jones suggests beginnings of an answer, in a recent essay on Renaissance women's poetry demonstrating importance of studying the conditions necessary for writing at all, and ways those conditions shape lyrics of ... women writers.... Women are spoken of; they speak to. The 'of' and 'to,' context and audience, must be starting-points for any understanding (74, 93).' Suyemoto's wartime verse, as I will show, bears a direct and conscious relation to some traditions of women's lyric familiar to feminist critics; Jones's work, and that of other feminists on women's poetry, will be pertinent here. But sociotextual constraint (Jones 92) of gender ideology exerts its forces on Suyemoto's '40s poems always and only in conjunction with other equally salient and immediately pressing social categories-American constructions of race, ethnicity, citizenship, loyalty. In USA, in '42 or '44, Japs were spoken of; Japanese Americans (Issei, firstgeneration immigrants, or Nisei, their US-born children) spoke" @default.
