Acknowledgments I owe many people a debt of thanks in the writing of this book; without them it wouldn’t have been written. Joseph Parsons first approached me to ask if I’d be interested in working on the Muse Series, and when I answered “Yes, if Keats,” he was all encouragement. I am very lucky to find myself surrounded by colleagues who both support and inspire: thank you, Ann Gill, Bruce Ronda, Louann Reid, Mike Lundblad, Matthew Cooperman, and Sasha Steensen . Three friends, all poets, read the entirety of the manuscript , sometimes more than once, and this book is better because of their insights and questions. Thank you, Srikanth Reddy, Sally Keith, and Martin Corless- Smith. I’d like to thank everyone at Iowa University Press, especially Elisabeth Chretien. Thank you to the Muse Series editor, Robert D. Richardson, whose own work has often been my guide. Without the support of a Faculty Development Award from Colorado State University’s College of Liberal Arts this book would not have been completed. Thank you to Amy Wright at Zone 3 for publishing “Portrait: Of His Hand.” Lastly, thank you to my children, Hana and Iris, who are daily reminders of uncertainty’s wonders, and to my wife, Kristy, who helps make of this life a place where “unbelief has not a space to breathe.” ...
