they are instruments of discovery. When I questionnaried poets in the
early 80s about how thyey began writing the Donald Allen NAP keept
conming up as the moment of intial contact with certain poets' work.
For myself, it all began with Horovitz' Children of Albion. That I ended up
writing a PhD largely on 2 of the contributors and about the general
scene it describes, and yes, misdescribes, doesnt diminish its
importance.
