Erminia, I think you misunderstood my question a little. It's certanly not poets who have a 'seeming ignorance' but the academic world. If you want citations, I've just received my copu of Dmitri Bulatov's _Home Sonorus_ from Russia It contains essays by poets which cover the last hundred years in over 50 countries written by Higgins, Scholz, Chopin, Lora-Totino, Rothenberg, Upton, Nikonova, etc., etc. Bulatov, Dmitri, _Homo Sonorus, An international anthology of sound poetry_, Kaliningrad, national center for Contempory Art, 2000. [log in to unmask] http://www.koenig.su/sonorus Some of the essays are historical but most are theoretical. tom ----- Original Message ----- From: "Erminia Passannanti" <[log in to unmask]> To: <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Thursday, November 15, 2001 7:55 AM Subject: Re: biographical poetry > On Wed, 14 Nov 2001 20:40:13 -0600, Thomas Bell <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > > >Doug, > > > > I am admittedly 'academically-deprived' but I'm always puzzled by the > >mainstream's seeming ignorance of these issues even though they have been a > >part of langpo for many years and 'experimental' writing for even longer. > > > >tom > > > > > Dear Tom, since you admit your "academic deprivation", which saddens me > immensely, I would like to illuminate you on one minor but essential aspect > of academicism, in its tendentially speculative thoughts and attitudes, > which is: exactness of references and quotations. > > So, please, tell us, who are those authors you are referring to, which are > the names of these individuals who, although being for a long time in the > mainstream of "experimental" poetry, have, in your opinion, a "seeming > ignorance" on the issue at the very core of your worries? > I am asking this with sincere curiosity, do not misinterpret me. > > erminia
