Biography


Vim Karénine (Antony de Vial), son of François de Vial who was a diplomat and a Minister Plenipotentiary of France,[1] was born in Poitiers, France, and grew up in Switzerland, Hungary, and Italy.[2] His family moved afterwards to Canada. After his secondary education at Collège Stanislas (Quebec),[3] in Montreal, Karénine moved to Paris, France. He earned a bachelor's degree from the University of Poitiers[4] Vim published his first poems in a student journal.

He enlisted in the French Navy for two years, and served aboard the cruiser Jeanne d' Arc, visiting the Far East, North and South America, Australia and New Zealand. Antony de Vial graduated from the Carmes Seminary in Paris, to become a Catholic priest on December 17, 1966. He then moved to the United States, involving himself with A. I. M. groups. He was a resident in Silver Spring, Maryland, near Washington D.C. and Baltimore, and acquired U. S. citizenship.[5]

Karénine usually writes his poems on a computer, but if inspiration strikes him when he's away from it, "I've been known to start poems on napkins and scraps of paper, too". He is known for his spontaneous method of writing, covering topics such as Catholic spirituality[6] and travel. In August 2012 his comprehensive collection of Emily Dickinson translations was published by Editions Orizons in France, with a general introduction by poet and editor Guy Chambelland [fr].[7] He eventually retired to Paris.[8]
