Dear [ ],
Thanks for the information on [ ]. Please leave all brackets out of your
recipe if you contribute to our cookbook of Poets.
In fact, [ ], maybe names proper in poetry are not the problem, nor
biographies. Maybe the problem begins when names and biographies get
attached to bodies, i.e., the metered and royalist Ricardo Reis is not
really a problem; the endowed and radical Charles Bernstein really is a
problem. Viruses only hurt when they enter a host. Sorry to be so
contentious. It got me kicked off the Buffalo list.
INcidentally, some of the posts on this thread have been so interesting that
I looked back at a few other ones in the archives. It's amazing that no one
has bothered to mention Foucault (or even the psychotic murderer Althusser!)
in his or her paraphrasings. Are the French disliked in the UK?
