约翰·劳伦斯·阿什伯里（1927年7月28日－）是一位美国诗人。他出版过超过20卷诗集，赢得了美国几乎所有的主要诗歌奖项，包括以诗集《凸面镜中的自画像》获1976年普利策奖。但阿什伯里的作品仍有很大争议。他的《文选》中收录了一篇评论伊丽莎白·毕晓普的文章，他将自己描述为“一个愚蠢、自产自销的超现实主义者，甚至无视超现实主义诗歌的规则和逻辑”。虽然阿什伯里以其作品的后现代复杂性与不透明性知名，他声称他希望能为尽可能多的读者阅读，而不是自说自话。

John Lawrence Ashbery (born July 28, 1927) is an American poet. He has published more than twenty volumes of poetry and won nearly every major American award for poetry, including a Pulitzer Prize in 1976 for his collection Self-Portrait in a Convex Mirror. Renowned for its postmodern complexity and opacity, Ashbery's work still proves controversial. Ashbery has stated that he wishes his work to be accessible to as many people as possible, and not to be a private dialogue with himself. At the same time, he once joked that some critics still view him as "a harebrained, homegrown surrealist whose poetry defies even the rules and logic of Surrealism."
