I would just like to stress the importance of John Wilkinson's contribution
to the present discussion. Most of us have not read Andrew's essay. This is
why I have contacted him and asked him to send me a copy of his essay.
Re Eric Mottram and Poetry Review I would like to draw interested readers'
attention to three publications: "Inside the Whale of Britain’s Literary
Establishment". In: P. Skelt, Y. Skelt (Hg.): Alive in Parts of This
Century: Eric Mottram at 70. Twickenham, Wakefield 1994, 51-56 focuses on
Eric's editorship of Poetry Review. Lawrence Upton published my interview
with Eric as "our education is political", Mainstream, Jan. 1997; my essay
on Poetry Review included in Little Magazine Profiles, Salzburg Nov. 1993,
507-18; the interview with Eric as well as an interview with Peter Forbes
will be included in my forthcoming book "Contemporary Views on the Little
Magazine Scene" (late January 1999).
