Dear Ron
Many thanks for the directions to the comments on the MLA conference and to
the various links for Barrett Watten's report, the online recording of the
reading and the photos.
Interesting to get a sense of what is happening in poetry in the USA. Where
does the anti-cultural studies feeling come from? Is it because of the way
it can tend to depend on narrative as cultural representation and won't
engage with more complex work, thereby maginalising it?
I could be completely out of touch but all I had noticed in the UK is that
'Cultural Studies' has tended to become less used; drifted out of fashion a
little.
Ian
