Over the years, Fairy Tales have lost their important role as a vehicle for idealistic values and morality in the development of culture. The earliest European Fairy Tales have always dealt with good and evil in the heroes and characters, with goodness triumphing in the end. Derived from ancient civilizations of the Celtic and Greco-Roman traditions, the present book of English translations, entitled *Old Romanian Fairy Tales*, captures and conveys indigenous Romanian folklore. You are invited to join us for a fabulous evening where you can meet Prince Charming and have a drink with the fairies, witness battles with dragons, betrayal, competition, love, and observe ultimate success in the interpretive readings of four four Romanian Fairy Tales. * http://www.salmagundi.org/content.cfm/salmagundi/Romanian-Fairy-June2012/id/93 * *Forty-Seven Fifth Avenue | New York, NY 10003 | (212) 255-7740 | Email: info@salmagundi.org* ================================== The Poetics List is moderated & does not accept all posts.

Yours truly, Sam p.s. Abstract below: This article reads, in parallel, Clark Coolidge's Polaroid (1975) and Willem de Kooning's Excavation (1950). It argues that both are exemplary meditations on the tension between abstraction and representation, and display that tension as an affective struggle that ultimately refuses any easy conceptualization of =91abstraction=92 or =91representation=92. The argument bears on their reception. As =91New York School=92 artist or =91Abstract Expressionist=92, de Kooning worked at the biting point between figuration and abstraction. Coolidge's reception in the discourse of Language writing imputes a lack of referentiality, which this article critiques. Polaroid presents the qualifiers, pronouns, spatial prepositions, and deictic pointers that typically determine the coherence of the representational scene in the mind's eye. Here, however, the parts of language that facilitate meaning become the parts that resist recognition. The tension between our wish for context and the reticence of the artwork to fulfil that craving is compared to the context reticence of Excavation. The term deixis is given to describe the reception of both paintings and poems, and foregrounds the corporeality of the viewing subject, thereby refusing the possibility of a final abstraction (or lack of referentiality). The force of the comparison is paradigmatic of strategies of interdisciplinary reading generally. =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D The Poetics List is moderated & does not accept all posts.

Love is b= oth an autonomous quality of the world and a conditional quality of our language. Extend a convention far enough and one arrives at life. Shall we explore love then as rhetorical device? The flowers among your hair are mere metaphors. Upper limit hyperbole, lower limit litotes. Kitsch and the commonplace set up the steps of the dance. To then trip over tropes is to attain a glittering singularity among stars: a stasis amidst the movement. Rhetoric and sincerity do not cease to be distinguishable; rather, their distinction no longer matters. Beyond the baroque and the rococo lie the limits of this spectrum, where all passion is at once passion and its show, all *pathos* at once *ethos* and its mask of Venetian glitter. The aesthetic posture and persona of our over-the-top Romeo takes then to moving while still sobbing in a comical *cabriole*.

Here's what lst year's looks like: http://boogcity.com/boogpdfs/bc69.pdf Advertising in the festival issue of Boog City means you will reach via our electronic and physical issues more than 5,500 readers, poetry lovers, and small press aficionados throughout the East Village, other targeted areas of lower Manhattan; Williamsburg and Greenpoint, Brooklyn; and throughout the United States; as well as bonus distribution at Boog City events. That's an increase of 33.3% over our regular issues for no additional cost. And, since this issue is also a program for the festival, readers will give it a closer read as they check to see who's up later on that day and throughout the festival. Boog City continues to offer our special Small Press Ad Rates. That means when you advertise with us you will save 50% off of our regular display ad rates. * Full Page $250 * Half-Page $130 * Quarter-Page $70 * Eighth-Page $40 Here is a link to our full rate card: http://boogcity.com/adrates.pdf As I mentioned in previous emails, Boog City focuses on getting the word out about lesser-known artists, be they poets, prose writers, musicians, painters, photographers, or cartoonists. Each month we publish poetry from the likes of Anselm Berrigan, Renee Gladman, Lisa Jarnot, Eileen Myles, Kristin Prevallet, and recent Pulitzer Prize winnr Tracy K. Smith, alongside our music section, small press book reviews, political commentary, art, comics, and photographs. We look forward to working with you to bring your message to the local arts community to increase awareness and sales of your publications in the New York area and beyond. as ever, David -- David A.

When she sees that I see her, she runs into the woods. I resent her all month for appearing at such a clumsily symbolic moment, on that is unusable in writing, as if to taunt me, she doesnt show herself again. Sarah Manguso 1. Le Chantecleur or coq, au vin. Dipping my feet at the edge of the lake. Pascale tells me the hotel poisons the lake, pours liquid in. Im indignant in orange lifejacket. Wet curls. We found no evidence. I lose my contacts in the lake. The fish mumble. Wake from water blur faced and metal. 2. To next fleur, chanson or chocolaterie. A cake my family ate in square portions, Cadix. The baker moves away and wont teach the new owners how to make it. We adjust our palette. Settle for butterflies on chocolate crisp. Le Papillion. Not simply some acres of snow. 3. Lake swans, lake boats, only thats not here thats there. Thats a ride at some park. Here there are paddleboats. My feet get hit if Im not paying attention. I pretend swans. I have never been on a train. 4. Late songs on the deck. Leaves, the yard spreads. A table of water.

Amazon has activated the "Look Inside" feature so you can have a peak. Call it “a demonstration/ project,” as the opening to this collaboration suggests, by two authors, Martha Deed, a mother accompanying Millie Niss, her daughter, to doctors and hospitals, which is to say from one medical disaster to the next, till the daughter is dead and the mother is left with the heart-breaking task of burying the daughter and completing the project. The result is a back and forth from present to past, through diaries, emails, drawings, poems, medical reports, and handwritten notes, sorting to find out and be clobbered with the errors that led relentlessly to the death. Those who have been there will appreciate Deed’s conveying the words and images in the chaotic way they come at us and we sort them. Those who have not been there will be convinced. All of us will learn, thanks to Niss’s courage to keep writing and to Deed’s clear-headedness in meaningfully finishing what must have been a painful, mind-boggling task. − Diane Kendig, author of The Places We Find Ourselves If anyone would like to review this mixed-media book, please contact me backchannel.

If anyone's department needs someone last minute, will you let me know? I am interested in some place within an hour commute of Greenpoint Brooklyn. I have six years high experience and three years freshman comp experience, two books, awards and all that jazz. I would actually prefer to teach a disabilities studies class, but I know those are hard to come by.

I'm teaching the following workshops Monday through Saturday (descriptions below): Hybrid Forms/Mongrel Selves; Art as a Point of Departure; Contrapuntal Collaboration; Writing with Scientific Thought; & The Sensual Infrastructure Between the Abstract and Concrete. Check out the schedule, and please pass along to friends, colleagues, and students that you think might be interested. It looks to be a very full week at Centrum. http://centrum.org/writers-conference-schedule-afternoon-workshop-faculty/ Best, Deborah Poe www.deborahpoe.com * The Sensual Infrastructure: Between the Abstract and Concrete* As prose and poetry writers, we will reflect on how one can improve writing by way of deftly balancing abstract and concrete language. By weaving abstract and concrete language through spatial description and sensory details, readers are able to connect to stories and poems more deeply. We=92ll consider how bridging the abstract and tangible does not merely provide a descriptive function. Such bridging engages readers more directly intellectually, psychologically and emotionally with the importance of your work. This year's focus will be on fiction. *Writing with Scientific Thought* We will reflect on how one can use science to inspire creative writing. By looking at writing samples from such writers as Arthur Sze, Czeslaw Milosz, Primo Levi, Italo Calvino, Andrea Barrett, Bernadette Mayer, and Rikki Ducornet, we=92ll consider how established writers use scientific ideas in their own work. Though our focus is not an introduction of scientific terms per se, we will use scientific thought as launching pads for creative writing, generating work during the workshop. The workshop is designed to provide new channels to access new work. This year's focus will be on fiction. *Contrapuntal Collaboration* There are three major definitions of contrapuntal. It=92s the melody added = as accompaniment to a given melody or =91plain-song=92. Contrapuntal refers a= lso to the art of adding one or more melodies as accompaniment to a given melody or =91plain-song=92 according to certain fixed rules (the style of composition in which melodies are thus combined). Contrapuntal can also mean a combination of two types of rhythm in a line of verse. Palestinian-American critical theorist Edward Said, himself a pianist and music critic, wrote extensively about how *literature* can be contrapuntal. We will talk a little bit about how literature might be contrapuntal. We will focus on writing pieces that possess a keen attentiveness to prose rhythms, poetry= =92s musicality, and the contrapuntal. We will focus on ways in which thinking about the contrapuntal during our creative process might impact the meaningfulness of our work. *Art as a Point of Departure* What is the difference between using art as a point of departure versus ekphrastic writing=97writing that describes artwork? What is ekphrastic poetry? What is not? If you use different mediums=97film, other books, soun= d art=97how does that change the use of art as a point of departure? In this workshop, we will reflect on the use of art as an instigator for new work. But we will contemplate how the joining of ideas, research, ideas of the artist, and a focus on various mediums can produce different kinds of pieces than straight ekphrastic poetry. *Hybrid Forms/Mongrel Selves* In this workshop we=92ll use the words hybridity to think about creating pieces that embrace multiple genres at once: prose poems, flash fiction, narrative that looks like poetry, etc. Some examples from which we might discuss excerpts include: Maggie Nelson's *Bluets*, Natasha Tretheway's *Be= yond Katrina*, Akilah Oliver's *A Toast in the House of Friends*, Rebecca Brown's *Excerpts from a Family Medical Dictionary*, and Anne Carson's * Plainwater*. =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D The Poetics List is moderated & does not accept all posts.

I'm STILL offering, to anyone interested, evaluation, editing and otherwise help with shaping a poetry manuscript for potential publication. I'd be thinking a series of back-and-forths, including notes, questions and revisions. $200 for a manuscript up to 100 pages, or $250 for up to 150 pages. If you are interested, send me an email at rob_mclennan@hotmail.com. It has been a while since I've run poetry workshops at Collected Works Bookstore and Coffeebar, but I've run nearly a dozen poetry workshops at the store over the past decade, and run other workshops and manuscript evaluations through my Writer-in-Residence position at the University of Alberta (2007-8), through Encounters with Canada, and as part of the (late, lamented) Ottawa Valley Book Festival, as well as editing numerous books over the years for Broken Jaw Press, Vehicule Press, Insomniac Press and Black Moss Press, and my own Chaudiere Books and above/ground press. There's always a possibility that I might offer another poetry workshop.

Aleph Null is color music. No audio. It's an online, generative, interactive, open source visual work written in JavaScript using the HTML5 canvas tag. No plugin required. I showed Aleph Null recently in Paris at the Sorbonne at their And Now conference on "innovative writing". There was a panel of three scholars who presented papers on Aleph Null. And myself; I presented Aleph Null. Aleph Null was also presented recently at the Electronic Literature Organization conference in West Virginia. Again, three scholars--Leo Flores, Giovanna Di Rosario, and Mark Marino--presented papers on Aleph Null and I presented the piece--only this time I couldn't be there so they played this video which I made about Aleph Null. Aleph Null will also be presented in Boston at the 2013 MLA in an exhibition of electronic literature curated by Dene Grigar and Kathi Inman Berens. You might ask yourself why Aleph Null, which is primarily a visual piece, not a 'literary' piece, has attracted such attention within specifically literary communities. The 'And Now' conference is concerned with "innovative writing" and the two other venues I mentioned are concerned with electronic literature. Whatever your answer, the interest in Aleph Null in these writerly venues has triggered interesting discussion about the relation of such a piece to poetry and the writerly. ja http://vispo.com ================================== The Poetics List is moderated & does not accept all posts.

Description: =E2=80=9CSymphony No.7=E2=80=9D is a poetic meditation on the passage of ti= me.

Here it is known that each moment is subject to the quantum flux= of an observing mind=E2=80=99s cognitive awareness, and thus, each moment = presented evolves according to the indeterminate and mutable potentialities= inherent in the nature of its existence moving through an experientially p= erceived corporeal realm.

I asked for artwork, Norma sent a collage (named for a book by another wonderful poet/collagist, Tom Raworth), and I responded w/a July poem. You can view the broadside & find purchasing info here: http://martin-cj.tumblr.com/post/27626272991/this-is-the-first-in-a-series-of-broadsides . Julia Drescher & I are launching a new fine press imprint called Further Other Book Works, and this broadside is part of a series that I'm hoping will allow us to raise some funds for the books we have lined up. More on future titles later, but if you can purchase a broadside, it would be a big help. They're ink jet prints (17"x22"). The edition size is 25, so there aren't that many to go around. We're asking $40 + $8 shipping (if you're outside of the continental US, shipping will be more). If you're interested and would rather not use the paypal link on the page above, feel free to mail a check (made out to me) to 200 W 55 1/2 St., Austin, TX, 78751.

Most authors are incredibly honored to have their work included in a special collection, and few expect to be paid for their books. Of course, we do buy things, but there are so many works that we would never know about unless an author brought them to our attention and offered them to us. It doesn't demean the work to offer it to a library. Having our work preserved and cared for by an institution is a privilege that most writers never get.
