1.) In select venues, gender balance seems to be appearing more often via smaller awards, but the big prizes (i.e. late career recognition) continue to be awarded primarily to men. The number of Academy prizes, of early and mid-career level, reflect an appreciation of the works by women and men alike. But the standout award, ema vote the Wallace Stevens, which carries a prize of $100,000 and national note, has been issued to 12 men and only 4 women.
Why is the Academy reflecting an appreciation for women poets via the early career prizes, but when it comes to recognition of life s work, the imbalance remains? Does bias carry on when it comes to selecting the most noteworthy poets of all the greats ?
2.) The Raiziss / de Palchi Translation Award and Harold Morton Langdon Translation Award both make it seem few women are translating and few women poets are being translated. This imbalance suggests additional queries when it comes to the valuable work of sharing poetry beyond ema vote one s borders.

I appreciate ema vote your analysis here. What I find interesting is that if you choose almost any 20 year period of 20th C American Poetic history, you find much more parity of men and women at the early and mid-level of careers as compared to those who are recognized as “essential” or canonized. ema vote
