And words have to get said. Enough fuss. Blow the wind. Stand the earth. Push the leaf out. Bud. 27 March 2007 THE GAME I kept waiting for some information to quiet my eyes but the checkerboard engraved on the polished granite bench between two mysterious Chinese characters (all writing is mysterious to a stone) was empty of chessmen, the whole affair was wet from snowmelt and spring’s fraudulent caresses, there was no game in this game. How could we sit down on this matrix, could I put a pebble on the smooth stone like the old Jew puts on a grave (every stone is a tombstone), we could leave it behind us and walk down into the drenched meadow towards the far trees we never quite get to, down the path to the hidden stream where it pools out for a moment and already skunk cabbages are starting to make their move but still this simple-minded sixty-four compartmented conundrum hangs in the mind, all numbers are the men and the board, the pawns and the queen, the silly little blue faience lumps Egyptians used to while away long years of being dead. -

Youth Summit, 2018. for the Humanities Bottom: Installation view of Ellen Rothenberg, "ISO 6346: ineluctable immigrant," 2019. 4 5 Letter from the Director The Center for the Humanities has been serving its various constit- uencies for a quarter century, and to commemorate our milestone year, we have chosen to arrange this annual report by celebrating the people we work with, demonstrating the variety of ways we collaborate with researchers—from individual students, faculty members, and visitors to community groups and global organizations. Over the last academic year, the Center for the Humanities has concentrated its energies on initiating, developing, and promoting sustained bodies of research over time. These discrete projects comprise an increasing part of our work. Moving away from delivering one-off events and conferences and toward supporting integrated multidisciplinary research, the Center has initiated collaborations with an increasingly diverse range of partner organizations across the city and internationally. Where core themes constructively overlap, we look to amplify such Director Keith Wilson in conversation with Harry Blain, Jacob Clary, Eileen Clancy, Christian Lewis, Dilara O’Neil, and artist crossover with bold public programming, as well as organize events that Mariam Ghani at screening of Dis-Ease, 2019. -

Radio Transmission Electricity and Surrealist Art in 1950S and '60S San
Journal of Surrealism and the Americas 9:1 (2016), 40-61 40 Radio Transmission Electricity and Surrealist Art in 1950s and ‘60s San Francisco R. Bruce Elder Ryerson University Among the most erudite of the San Francisco Renaissance writers was the poet and Zen Buddhist priest Philip Whalen (1923–2002). In “‘Goldberry is Waiting’; Or, P.W., His Magic Education As A Poet,” Whalen remarks, I saw that poetry didn’t belong to me, it wasn’t my province; it was older and larger and more powerful than I, and it would exist beyond my life-span. And it was, in turn, only one of the means of communicating with those worlds of imagination and vision and magical and religious knowledge which all painters and musicians and inventors and saints and shamans and lunatics and yogis and dope fiends and novelists heard and saw and ‘tuned in’ on. Poetry was not a communication from ME to ALL THOSE OTHERS, but from the invisible magical worlds to me . everybody else, ALL THOSE OTHERS.1 The manner of writing is familiar: it is peculiar to the San Francisco Renaissance, but the ideas expounded are common enough: that art mediates between a higher realm of pure spirituality and consensus reality is a hallmark of theopoetics of any stripe. Likewise, Whalen’s claim that art conveys a magical and religious experience that “all painters and musicians and inventors and saints and shamans and lunatics and yogis and dope fiends and novelists . ‘turned in’ on” is characteristic of the San Francisco Renaissance in its rhetorical manner, but in its substance the assertion could have been made by vanguard artists of diverse allegiances (a fact that suggests much about the prevalence of theopoetics in oppositional poetics). -

The Cambridge Companion to Twenty-First Century American Fiction Edited by Joshua Miller Frontmatter More Information
Cambridge University Press 978-1-108-83827-6 — The Cambridge Companion to Twenty-First Century American Fiction Edited by Joshua Miller Frontmatter More Information -- Reading lists, course syllabi, and prizes include the phrase “twenty-first-century American literature,” but no critical consensus exists regarding when the period began, which works typify it, how to conceptualize its aesthetic priorities, and where its geographical boundaries lie. Considerable criticism has been published on this extraordinary era, but little programmatic analysis has assessed comprehensively the literary and critical/theoretical output to help readers navigate the labyrinth of critical pathways. In addition to ensuring broad coverage of many essential texts, The Cambridge Companion to Twenty-First- Century American Fiction offers state-of-the-field analyses of contemporary narrative studies that set the terms of current and future research and teaching. Individual chapters illuminate critical engagements with emergent genres and concepts, including flash fiction, speculative fiction, digital fiction, alternative temporalities, Afro-Futurism, ecocriticism, transgender/queer studies, anti- carceral fiction, precarity, and post-9/11 fiction. . is Associate Professor of English at the University of Michigan.
