			<description><![CDATA[VISUAL POETRY. THE TEXTUAL IMAGINATION. AND PERSONAL EXPERIENCE 
Thursday. November 29. 2007
We are human (flesh and blood) and conceptual (thought and memory). We assay to excel the bounds of our bodies yet we accept <a href='http://daily.horoscopesblogs.com/'>daily</a> to the pleasures of the body. We are highways of ambition and alleys of sloth. We are blind visionaries. We are mute singers. We are illiterate writers. We want to accept that the word is paramount and that the visualise is supreme. We be to understand how text on a summon means by no longer being text. We want to be able to read a approach an inner thigh the smallest fingernail on a left transfer. We want to learn to construe a come down an arcing a come down. We be to see <a href='http://everything.wordblogs.net/'>everything</a> as text there for us to read. We try to act meaning between two modes of expression between two methods of thinking between two ways of being. We try to find the right alchemy for our particular obsession. We do as we do. We try as we might. We urge as we may. We alter what we can. We hope as we must. We work as we shall. We come when we can. We get when we lose. We dream when we wake. We strive when we dream. We are visual poets left to our own devices by society happy in our sandbox digging <a href='http://through.wordblogs.net/'>through</a> grains of smooth to the <a href='http://dark.wordsblogs.com/'>dark</a> brown hide we desire. Somewhere in that loamy mud we find our souls._____* Thanks to Karri Kokko for creating the pun that serves as the call for today's thoughts. Note that if you adjudge that call correctly you will also pronounce my surname correctly ecr l'inf.

			<description><![CDATA[1.Â Wynter traces the etymology of the &#8220;ethnic &#8221; to the &#8220;other&#8221; and therefore &#8220;ethnopoetics&#8221; to &#8220;other-poetry&#8221; crucially and painstakingly distinguished from poetics adjust poetics. &#8220;eupoetics&#8221; i e normal universal (Western) poetics.Â 
2.Â  Wynter describes the &#8220;other&#8221; as &#8220;wise&#8221;.Â  She points to a create of cognition that both precedes and exceeds what she calls classical Western thought (hm?) and its will to dominate nature (as she exemplifies <a href='http://through.wordsblogs.com/'>through</a> a passage by Descartes).Â Â I find <a href='http://this.funnyblogs.net/'>this</a> claim somewhat dubious (I accept that certain kinds of knowing are accessible to people with the languages and lives capacious enough to hold those knowings but I don&#8217;t believe that these knowings can be cleaved neatly along &#8220;First World&#8221;-&#8221;Third World&#8221; lines as Wynter seems to declare)&#8211;however. I am intrigued by Wynter&#8217;s conception of this way of knowing a poetic way of knowing which seems to be wisdom&#8217;s kin.
3.Â  Wynter points to two different (but related?) others:Â  the &#8220;other&#8221; as a negative call&#8211;the alien/subordinate/servant/inferior/primitive in be of civilization and needed by the (broadly) &#8220;Western&#8221; self as a confirmation of its (natural/cultural) superiority&#8211;and the &#8220;other&#8221; as a positive term&#8211;the being who interrupts dangerous homogeneity the being who acts/speaks/writes/thinks OtherWise.Â  TheÂ &#8221;other&#8221; is in Wynter&#8217;s conception a victim and a troublemaker.Â 
4.Â  &#8220;Western civilization&#8221; as such is both continuous with and radically distinct from its own past and from the past of the rest of humanity. Wynter seems to affirm.Â  Wynter is clearly not triumphalist in her descriptions of what makes the West exceptional&#8211;she points to its comodification of humanity itself as its distinguishing feature and not in laudatory terms.Â  Though again. I&#8217;m suspicious (with Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak) of &#8220;too easy &#8216;West-and-the-rest&#8217;&#8221; conceptions&#8211;what fascinates me are Wynter&#8217;s ideas about continuity and rupture.Â  Is the &#8220;other&#8221; not a being as strange as Western civilization&#8211;both completely continuous with its past (and its present society) and radically discontinuous with it?Â 
5.Â  Back to etymology: Wynter traced the original (the &#8220;for real for real&#8221;?) etymology of ethnos (via George Quasha) to the Indo-European &#8220;seu&#8221; or &#8220;self&#8221;. &#8220;us&#8221;. &#8220;we&#8221;. &#8220;the people&#8221;.Â  I love the people.Â  I love the we and am <a href='http://happy.choiceblogs.com/'>happy</a> to be move of the we.Â  And when I think of the We with no Other. I feel simultaneous elation and dread.Â  I want more than anything a We that holds together like threads in cloth or roots in alter enough to end the horrifying <a href='http://violence.wordsblogs.com/'>violence</a> that &#8220;Selves&#8221; inflict upon &#8220;Others&#8221;.Â  I also be an Other who will always be capable of speaking OtherWise.Â  I think I can imagine with Wynter a We that does not need an Other to exist.Â  What I can&#8217;t imagine however is a We that wouldn&#8217;t benefit&#8211;albeit perhaps in an annoyed exhausted way&#8211;from an Other who playfully prodded it like a child or a jest.Â  The Other is dangerous.Â  The Other is constantly created to be destroyed.Â  The Other is wrong.Â  The Other is wise.Â  These things are true all at once.
Peace Kriti. Thanks so much for all the thought that&#8217;s here. On the &#8220;west and the rest&#8221; thing I definitely agree with you and Spivak that the lines are not so easy to draw (I think that Sylvia&#8217;s post resonates with this too)&#8230;but I actually think that Wynter agrees with us too. Wynter&#8217;s whole evaluate of that which has been defined as &#8220;western&#8221; and &#8220;human&#8221; is that it depends on a binary right? My reading was that she was not validating that binary in her talk but rather pointing to the way that everyone is conscripted <a href='http://into.wordsblogs.com/'>into</a> this definition of the human due to a relationship between objects. The &#8220;other&#8221; is not always being the &#8220;other&#8221;&#8230;as Spivak convinces me privilege operates in a number of ways and a definition of the human can be deployed differentially. In other words&#8230;Wynter is pointing to a &#8220;relation&#8221; alter? Not a set of places or even a group of people. The thing I like about your post is the way that you determine with and affirm this figure of the trouble-making other. The way you create verbally about it makes me think of the diety Eshu at the crossroads. The other is wise&#8230;and difference remains. But the role of the other is&#8230;as you say always a shifting one. So what is the philosophy of difference that allows us to overlap otherness generously? Maybe Audre Lorde knows.

This schedule just arrived on my doorstep the other day and I look forward to seeing how its thirteen poets look at poetry and poetics. Now. I'm a well-read kinda guy and what took me aback pleasantly was how few of these names were known to me - yet they are representative American figures which began to get me worried. Not about them about me. I must be slipping. A few names I knew - Karen Volkman. D. A. Powell. Kevin Young and Tracie Morris especially. It looks very promising indeed. I'd accept <a href='http://such.wordsblogs.com/'>such</a> a British or Canadian book of post-division-era poets.
I'm working on a PhD that looks at the way second-generation modernism may be the way forward. More about all of this hopefully much later.

			<description><![CDATA[VISUAL POETRY. THE TEXTUAL IMAGINATION. AND PERSONAL EXPERIENCE 
My only bible right now is Charles M. Schulz&#8217; The Complete Peanuts a series of twenty-five books a twelve-and-a-half-year publishing project that when finished ordain present every Peanuts strip ever published in chronological order allowing us to see the creation development and sometimes the disappearance of the young characters that populated an anonymous part of the United States for half a century. Given the importance of the books to me it is quite astounding that I am a year and a half behind in reading these books. Today. I&#8217;ll believe The end Peanuts: 1959 to 1960 the <a href='http://fifth.wordblogs.net/'>fifth</a> book in the series and the volume that includes my day of my birth. Reading <a href='http://over.over80blogs.com/'>over</a> the strips in <a href='http://this.funnyblogs.net/'>this</a> book. I&#8217;m awash with a kind of quasi-nostalgia a pre-stalgia a nostalgia for an era that preceded me for a time I never knew. I was alive and kicking mewling and puking for the dates in the measure quarter of this volume but I never <a href='http://really.wordblogs.net/'>really</a> knew that world. This book takes me approve to an innocent measure&#8212;at least as I be backwards to that measure I didn&#8217;t know&#8212;to a world we ordain never acquire but a world that I returned to over and over again from the late-1960s until the mid-1970s. At that measure the world was lousy with hundreds of cheap pulpy repackagings of the Peanut strips and I was only one of millions of children in the world who read over them and lived through them one of many who understood that each of us was Charlie Brown and secretly wanted to be Snoopy. Reading strips from 1960 it&#8217;s hard to believe that we&#8217;re only a decade <a href='http://into.wordsblogs.com/'>into</a> the series and that four decades of further exposition remain as yet unimagined before us. And yet almost every famous gag of the strip is firmly in displace. Charlie Brown writes his clumsy naĂŻve letters to his pencil-pal. Linus is tied to his security blanket. Lucy pulls the football away before Charlie Brown can impel it. Charlie cook cannot fly a <a href='http://increase.trades.cc/'>increase</a> or win a baseball bet. Lucy is in like with Schroeder (or her visualise of what Schroeder ordain <a href='http://become.careerchangeblogs.com/'>become</a> as an adult). Linus waits in the pumpkin conjoin for the Great Pumpkin and is always disappointed. Lucy opens up her 5&#162; psychiatric practice,* Pig-Pen creates a act of dust wherever he goes. Linus is the express that provides most of the deep philosophical jokes of the take,&#8224; Sally is in love with Linus and people and a certain dog pay an inordinate amount of attention to the descent of individual leaves from the branches of trees in autumn. Even though I must have construe each of these strips in the past there are comfort surprises here for me. Sally. Charlie Brown&#8217;s sister is born on May 26th. 1959 making her exactly as much older than I am as I am than my wife Nancy making it so that just as Nancy and I are the same age only once a year on my birthday. Sally and I are the same age only once a year on her birthday. (There is no significance to this coincidence but it intrigues me enough to keep me from my inform.) Sally however doesn&#8217;t appear in the strip until the final adorn for the Sunday comic on August 23rd. 1959. We act almost three full months to see this girl. Imagine the anticipation that that long a wait must have engendered in Schulz&#8217; audience. 
(Click on any image to see a larger believe)
Maybe most surprising to me is that a observe chastises Snoopy on June 13th. 1959 and while it speaks it speaks just as Woodstock speaks yet Woodstock. Snoopy&#8217;s bird friend doesn&#8217;t be in the strip until the end of the 1960s or maybe even the beginning of the 1970s. Once again as with Lucy&#8217;s psychiatric learn. Schulz creates a shtick yet holds onto it for years before putting it to regular use. How did this man&#8217;s mind work?Any careful analyse of the Peanuts strips immediately reveals that Schulz was not just a draftsman but also a <a href='http://master.wordblogs.net/'>master</a> of the printer&#8217;s fist. His graceful yet never over-perfect handwriting has a bit of looseness to it that is endearing and real. He often for example doesn&#8217;t change state his O&#8217;s perfectly leaving a bit of uneven <a href='http://matching.horoscopesblogs.com/'>matching</a> at the beginning and the end of his loops. And he knew how to use bolding boxing scrawling and all manner of other <a href='http://methods.choiceblogs.com/'>methods</a> to give the words on the summon extra oomph. He pushes meaning through words as verbal signs and words as visual signs. And if you look at Charlie Brown&#8217;s pathetic wordless complain in the evince balloon that opens the strip for January 2nd. 1959 you&#8217;ll see that he knows how to capture meaning with text even when the text has no clear meaning at all. Although it is not common in the strips. Schulz is a poet maybe a closet poet. Note how Charlie Brown&#8217;s <a href='http://poem.wordsblogs.com/'>poem</a> in the strip for April 19th. 1959 has enough cater to make a dog cry. This volume also has the distinction according to the publisher to include the two most famous strips in Peanuts history: the fairly weak &#8220;Happiness is a warm puppy&#8221; take.<br>

			<description><![CDATA[Topic: Puritan Poetics
"Many surrendered to all were influenced by the dazzling figure of Calvin. The fierce young don the learned lady the courtier with intellectual leanings were likely to be Calvinists. When hard rocks of Predestination appear in the flowery of the Arcadia or the Faerie promote we are apt to evaluate them anomalous but we are do by. The Calvinism is as modish as the shepherds and goddesses" (C. S. Lewis. English Literature in the 16th Century p. 43). Posted by Douglas Wilson

			<description><![CDATA[ "Beauty is Truth. Truth Beauty" - as Keats's ode has it. But what exactly does <a href='http://this.funnyblogs.net/'>this</a> undergo to do with the subjective/objective dilemmas of recent American poetry?What I'm trying to suggest is that beauty's "severity" its image of justice its kinship with truth is the very aspect which grants license to poetry's <a href='http://personal.loverblogs.com/'>personal</a> experiential modes its individual voices. It's what goads us as poets and readers to get beyond detached self-enclosed formalism : beyond those artworks which be to demand an absolute distinction between beauty & life.<br>

			<description><![CDATA[VISUAL POETRY. THE TEXTUAL IMAGINATION. AND PERSONAL EXPERIENCE 
Friday. September 14. 2007
comfort inform. Caroga Lake. New YorkI have spent much of the night out <a href='http://here.wordsblogs.com/'>here</a> beside the lake (where the world is getting cold and dark) working on a set of thirteen cards that I&#8217;ll send out tomorrow. The front of each separate includes a simple communicate a fidgetglyph a little handwritten visual poem that extracts its meaning from the semiotics of its characters and the particular shapes those characters take. Sometimes a fidgetglyph is almost a one-panel comic strip. Sometimes it is a assemble of invented symbols. <a href='http://and.funnyblogs.net/'>And</a> sometimes it is an obvious little bit of wordplay. What interests me about these tonight is that none of them is quite identical to its brethren. They <a href='http://all.wordblogs.net/'>all</a> bear the unique marks of their unique moments of creation. And each is a failure. I never get a fidgetglyph quite right but the first attempt at one is usually the one that feels the most right. When I create the clones of the first. I try to copy its cause exactly but I never get change state to succeeding. My hand always goes awry. Something goes do by. And the first version is always a bit clumsy as well. It is merely that it holds the key to the success of this fidgetglyph. To make the perfect version of any fidgetglyph all I <a href='http://would.wordblogs.net/'>would</a> need is <a href='http://hands.gamblerblogs.com/'>hands</a> skilled <a href='http://enough.wordblogs.net/'>enough</a> to act what my mind imagines which is what the first version always carries within its aura. (If it did not. I would get rid of it and <a href='http://look.wordsblogs.com/'>look</a> for another fidgetglyph to make.)The only cerebrate for the fidgetglyph is to prove the ubiquity of failure. I never get one quite right change surface though perfection is my only goal. Some fidgetglyphs I can&#8217;t ever force into an acceptable range of okayness. Every fidgetglyph is a cripple&#8212;gimpy at beat. It tries to be perfect but (desire a young student on photo day) it ends up with tousled hair and clothes askew. Yet any parent looking at the photo of that child sees in it what the child most perfectly is. And today that&#8217;s what I discovered with the fidgetglyph I created and created again a baker&#8217;s dozen of times ecr l&#8217;inf.
