  • American Book Awards 2004
    BEFORE COLUMBUS FOUNDATION PRESENTS THE AMERICAN BOOK AWARDS 2004 America was intended to be a place where freedom from discrimination was the means by which equality was achieved. Today, American culture THE is the most diverse ever on the face of this earth. Recognizing literary excel- lence demands a panoramic perspective. A narrow view strictly to the mainstream ignores all the tributaries that feed it. American literature is AMERICAN not one tradition but all traditions. From those who have been here for thousands of years to the most recent immigrants, we are all contributing to American culture. We are all being translated into a new language. BOOK Everyone should know by now that Columbus did not “discover” America. Rather, we are all still discovering America—and we must continue to do AWARDS so. The Before Columbus Foundation was founded in 1976 as a nonprofit educational and service organization dedicated to the promotion and dissemination of contemporary American multicultural literature. The goals of BCF are to provide recognition and a wider audience for the wealth of cultural and ethnic diversity that constitutes American writing. BCF has always employed the term “multicultural” not as a description of an aspect of American literature, but as a definition of all American litera- ture. BCF believes that the ingredients of America’s so-called “melting pot” are not only distinct, but integral to the unique constitution of American Culture—the whole comprises the parts. In 1978, the Board of Directors of BCF (authors, editors, and publishers representing the multicultural diversity of American Literature) decided that one of its programs should be a book award that would, for the first time, respect and honor excellence in American literature without restric- tion or bias with regard to race, sex, creed, cultural origin, size of press or ad budget, or even genre.

  • Interconnections and Tensions Between Postcolonialism and Feminism in South Asian Women Poets: the Case of Meena Alexander, Suniti Namjoshi and Imtiaz Dharker
    Scuola Dottorale di Ateneo Graduate School Dottorato di ricerca in Lingue, Culture e Società Ciclo XXVI° Anno di discussione 2014 Interconnections and Tensions Between Postcolonialism and Feminism in South Asian Women Poets: the case of Meena Alexander, Suniti Namjoshi and Imtiaz Dharker SETTORE SCIENTIFICO DISCIPLINARE DI AFFERENZA: LIN/10 Tesi di Dottorato di Stefania Basset, matricola 955804 Coordinatore del Dottorato Tutore del Dottorando Prof.ssa Enrica Villari Prof. Shaul Bassi ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Foremost, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to my supervisor, prof. Shaul Bassi, for the support, advice and encouragement during these three years. He has been an inspiration to give the best that I could. I also wish to thank him for the opportunity to meet Meena Alexander and to attend some of her seminars and lectures. I would also like to thank all the members of the Collegio Docenti del Dottorato, and in particular prof.ssa Enrica Villari, for her zeal in caring for us and for the inspiring passion for literature she passed on to us. Of course this work could have never been done without the help of The British Library and its helpful librarians. During my stay in London, I found in the British Library a peaceful and inspiring place to study. I all wish to thank all the members of AISCLI (Associazione Italiana di Studi sulle Culture e Letterature di Lingua Inglese), who have organized AISCLI Summer School in World Cultures and Literatures, and in particular prof.ssa Carmen Concilio for the organization of the event. I am also grateful to them for the opportunity to participate in the ASICLI conference “Cultures and Imperialisms”, which has been an incredibly enriching experience.

  • 2011 Showcase Is on Display in Kray Hall from June 28 to July 30
    The Poets House Showcase is made possible through the generosity of hundreds of publishers and authors who have graciously contributed their books. We are also deeply grateful to Deborah Saltonstall Pease for her ongoing support. Thanks to the National Endowment for the Arts, the New York State Council on the Arts, the NYC Department of Cultural Aairs, The Rockefeller Brothers Fund, The JM Kaplan Fund, Bloomberg Philanthropies, The Concordia Foundation, the Leon Levy Foundation, The Lila Acheson Wallace Theatre Fund of the New York Community Trust, and our many Poets House Members for their support of this project. | Poets House | 10 River Terrace | New York NY 10282 | poetshouse.org | Celebrating the 19th annual Poets House Showcase, with 2,459 poetry titles on display. Welcome to the Showcase, Poets House’s annual, all-inclusive exhibition of more than 2,000 poetry books, chapbooks, broadsides, and multimedia works published in the United States. We welcome you to this comprehensive celebration of U.S. poetry and poetry publishing. Collection Development Approach Poets House invite publishers to participate in the annual Showcase by donating copies of their new poetry titles, which are displayed for a monthlong exhibition. The books are then integrated into our 50,000-volume poetry library, one of the largest collections of poetry open to the public. The Poets House mission has always been to be all-inclusive, to offer a democratic home for the range of poetry books published nationally. Our Showcase reflects this inclusivity. We search for it all: big presses, micropublishers, and artists’ collectives participate annually. Our research is informed by the entire poetry community, by poets and publishers, who continually send us their newest titles; and library visitors looking for a recent poet or publication.

  • Poetry Reading Flyers of the Mimeograph Revolution
    Poetry Reading Flyers of the Mimeograph Revolution Poetry reading flyers are transitory by nature — quickly printed, locally distributed, easily discarded and thus frequently overlooked by scholars and curators when researching and documenting literary activities. They appear from time to time as fleeting one-offs in archives and collections, yet when viewed in the context of a large group these seemingly ephemeral objects take on significance as primary documents. Through close observation of this collection of poetry reading flyers, one gains insight into considerations of the development and representation of literary communities and affiliations of poets, the interplay of visual image, text and design, and the evolution of printing technology. A great many of the flyers appeared during the flowering of the mimeo revolution, an extraordinarily rich period of literary activity which was in part characterized by a profusion of poetry readings, performances, and publications documented by the flyers. This collection includes flyers from the mid-sixties to the present with a focus on the seventies, and embraces a range of poets and national venues with particular attention to activity in New York City and the San Francisco Bay Area. For a reading by Lewis Warsh and Harris Schiff, Ear Inn, New York City, December 6, n.d. Flyer. 11 x 8-1/2 inches. There are approximately 400 flyers (including a smattering of posters and cards), which are often 8 ½ x 11 – 8 ½ x 17 inches and printed as cheaply as possible, frequently via mimeograph, and often intended to be mailed. More than 250 writers and artists and nearly 100 venues are represented with a strong concentration on the Poetry Project at St.

The Showcase is Poets House’s annual, all-inclusive exhibition of more than 2,000 poetry books, chapbooks, broadsides, and multimedia works published in the United States. We began the Showcase as a combination collection-development approach to building our library and a celebration of poetry publishing. We invited publishers to participate by donating copies of their new poetry titles, and in this way we continually add to our library all of the latest books, building one of the most comprehensive collections of poetry available to the public.

And we searched for it all: big presses, micropublishers, and artists’ collectives participate annually. To ensure that we reach as many presses as possible, our collection-development approach includes contacting publishers but also searching for artists’ books by micropublishers and artists’ collectives on such sites as Etsy (a place to buy and sell handmade objects).
