A couple of poets I'd recommend for wider circulation have already been mentioned--Michael Palmer, William Bronk. I'd add Hayden Carruth, for my money one of the most important American poets of the last fifty years. Another almost unknown poet of a stature equal to Carruth is Eleanor Wilner, whose selected poems, Reversing the Spell, has just been published by Copper Canyon. Copper Canyon is also Carruth's publisher, come to think of it. ________________________ Joseph Duemer School of Liberal Arts-5750 Clarkson University Potsdam NY 13699 [log in to unmask] ________________________ "Always come down from the barren heights of cleverness into the green valleys of folly." ::Wittgenstein %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
