Bliss Carman

Bliss Carman, FRSC (April 15 1861 - June 8, 1929) was a preeminent Canadian poet. He was born William Bliss Carman in Fredericton, in the Maritime province of New Brunswick. He published under the name "Bliss Carman," although the "Bliss" is his mother's surname.

As with many Canadian poets, nature figures prominently as a theme in his work. In his time, he was arguably Canada's best known poet, and was dubbed by some the "unofficial poet laureate of Canada."

Biography

Bliss Carman was the great-grandson of United Empire Loyalists who fled to Nova Scotia after the American Revolution, settling in New Brunswick (then part of Nova Scotia). His literary roots run deep with an ancestry that includes a mother who was a descendant of Daniel Bliss of Concord, Massachusetts, the great-grandfather of Ralph Waldo Emerson. Also on his mother's side, he was a first cousin to another famous Canadian poet, Sir Charles G. D. Roberts. His sister was married to the botanist and historian William Francis Ganong.

Carman was educated at the University of New Brunswick, the University of Edinburgh, Harvard University and New York University. Relocated to New York City Carman was influential as an editor and writer for the "Independent", the "Cosmopolitan", the "Atlantic Monthly", the "Chap Book" and other literary journals. He is also well known for his anthology and editing work on "The World's Best Poetry" (10 volumes, 1904) and "The Oxford book of American Verse" (1927).

After 1909, he lived in New Canaan, Connecticut but became a corresponding Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada. In 1928, the Society awarded him its Lorne Pierce Medal.

Bliss Carman died at the age of 68 in New Canaan, Connecticut. His body was returned home and interred in the Forest Hill Cemetery in Fredericton, New Brunswick.

He is honoured with a school named after him in Toronto, Ontario. [http://www.tdsb.on.ca/scripts/Schoolasp.asp?schno=4350]

There is also a school to be named after him in Fredericton, New Brunswick in 2009.

Bliss Carmen Heights (often considered a part of the subdivision Skyline Acres) is a subdivision that consists of Essex St., Gloucester Cres., Reading St., Ascot Court, and Ascot Drive in Fredericton, New Brunswick. A new subdivision has been built off Bliss Carmen Heights, which is named Poet's Hill.
