I like the notion that Rimbaud 'studied' with Verlaine, I guess you could call it that. Rimbaud was the star student in Latin composition at school, it ended there.

  Rimbaud studied with Verlaine. Ginsberg was educated by Mark Van Doren and Lionel Trilling. Dickinson was a once in a century genius and there's no accounting for that. About Olson--well, I've never been able to read him with any pleasure, so my opinion is probably worthless.
