Eliot’s Avant-Garde Poetry Florentina Anghel1 University of Craiova, Romania Abstract Avant-gardism brings together the ideas of newness, originality and change, making art consumers get a glimpse of the potential future. Although T.S. Eliot’s poetry perfectly and admittedly folds on the avant-garde principles, aspects of the past and present tendencies intertwine on the way to newness. In both his theory and practice, Eliot showed the coexistence of past and present. Departing from reasons that may determine the concern with the presence of past elements in one’s work, the paper encompasses ways through which the poet used these elements to refresh the form and meaning of poetry. Keywords: British poetry, past, present, avant-garde, change Time present and time past Are both perhaps present in time future, And time future contained in time past. (T.S.Eliot, 2004 – “Burnt Norton” of Four Quartets) Various relations between the precursors and the successors have been established since the latter started caring for the originality of their products. Harold Bloom investigated and synthesized them in The Anxiety of Influence and he admitted: Shelley speculated that poets of all ages contributed to one Great Poem perpetually in progress. Borges remarks that poets create their precursors. If the dead poets, as Eliot insisted, constituted their successors' particular advance in knowledge, that knowledge is still their successors' creation, made by the living for the needs of the living. (Bloom, 1997, p. 19) Criticism and analyses of the literary texts, targeting their particularities and valuing them for their contribution to the uniqueness of the poem, have gradually built poets’ awareness of the originality of their creations. A wider interest in the past-present interrelatedness can be assigned to the twentieth century writers due to several steps taken at the end of the 19th century. The legal frame for the protection of the authors’ rights was initiated in the 17th century in England but it was legalized through The Berne Convention in 1 [email protected] 7 __________________Annals of the University of Craiova_____________ 1886. Sigmund Freud coined the concept of “Oedipus/Oedipal Complex” in his Interpretation of Dreams published in 1899 and opened the possibility of a metaphorical reading of the father-son rivalry which was also seen as the rivalry between masters and disciples or between forerunners and their successors. At the turn of the centuries, Henri Bergson, the French philosopher, published his works on duration, matter and memory, perception and intuition, and offered a new perspective upon time, image and representation which contributed to the writers’ focus on the way in which they individually and differently perceived and represented the world. It is also at the beginning of the twentieth century that Einstein launched his theory of special and general relativity according to which an observer’s moment/acceleration affects his/her perception of time-space and that the time-space around Earth is twisted due to the planet’s rotation. The assault of scientific and cultural events required a change of paradigm in literature achieved with the avant-garde movement. To explore the relation between the avant-garde art and the past, where the former is perceived as a daring, legitimate and revelatory spring of newness and originality meant to shape the future of art, it is necessary to establish the meaning of ‘avant-garde’ and the ‘pastness of the past’ (Eliot, 1986: 2014). The much debated past-present tension in modernist poetry was strongly outlined by the modernists themselves, and their road-opening theories were further developed in revelatory studies and critical theories. Modernist writers of the avant-garde, though admittedly concerned about the past influence, revealed their awareness of the presence of the past in their works and even turned the past-present interlacing into a technical device. It is widely recognized the fact that the avant-garde artists, and implicitly poets, contributed with new artistic representations that supposed “radical changes in style and technique” which is seen as artistic avant-garde, and also “demanded that art transform the way in which people experience the world” and not only represent it, which is called “aesthetic avant-garde”. (Erjavec, 2015, pp. 2-3) It would be somehow disappointing to discover that the concept of ‘avant-garde’ was not quite new, despite its forceful resonance, as David Cottington (2005) demonstrates in his tracing the history of the term almost one hundred years back, to the beginning of the 19th century (p. 5). It was the quest of the French for a society more respectful of the individual and able to replace the monarchical regime that caused the first use of the term: One of the most influential groups of this political spectrum was gathered around Count Henri de Saint-Simon who, shortly before his death 8 __________________Annals of the University of Craiova_____________ in 1825, elaborated a model of a state-technocratic socialism in which society would be led by a triumvirate of professions: the artist, the scientist, and the industrialist. Of these, the artist would be the ‘avant-garde’ (…) (Cottington, 2005, p. 5) Cottington upholds his theory with a quotation from Marx and Engels’ Communist Manifesto of 1848 according to which the past with “all fixed, fast frozen relations, with their train of ancient and venerable prejudices and opinions” is “swept away” (p. 5). By tracing the history of the concept of avant-garde, including its military meaning, Cottington shows that the present of the avant-garde, with its revolutionary impetuous aimed at conquering the future, is deeply rooted in the past, that we deal with a hundred-year

McKenna** The typical shorthand justification for trademark rights centers on avoiding consumer con- fusion. But in truth, this encapsulation mistakes a method for a purpose: confusion merely serves as an indicator of the underlying problems that trademark law seeks to prevent. Other areas of law accept confusion or mistake of all kinds, intervening only when those errors lead to more serious harms. Likewise, every theory of trademark rights considers confusion troubling solely because it threatens more fundamental values such as fair competition or informative com- munication. In other words, when it comes to the deep purposes of trademark law, confusion isn’t everything. Yet trademark law’s structure now encourages courts to act otherwise, as if confusion itself were the ultimate evil with which trademark law is concerned and as if its optimal level were zero.

  • The Barbie Case
    The Barbie® Case Introduction When on October 11, 2005, Neil B. Friedman was promoted from his position as head of the successful Fisher-Price® division to become the President of the combined operations of the merged Mattel® and Fisher-Price® units, he might have considered this promotion to be a daunting task to take on. At the start of this job as the President of the Mattel® Brands Division, the sales of Barbie®, Mattel®'s signature doll and profit engine, which account for an estimated 251 to 35%2 of Mattel®'s sales had fallen for seven straight quarters on a year-to-year basis.3 Barbie®'s global third-quarter sales in 2005 were down 18% from the previous year, and U.S. sales decreased 30%. This decrease in sales affected Mattel®'s overall performance as shares tumbled to their lowest point in four years. 4 The toy industry overall was struggling, with sales down 5.3% through the first nine months. U.S. retail sales of dolls fell 6% in that period, according to market researcher NPD Group. Analysts believe the slide will continue as more kids choose video games and digital-music players over action figures and board games.5 In addition, Friedman was confronted with an anti-Barbie climate with campaigns challenging Barbie®’s beauty ideal launched by The Body Shop and more recent ones by Dove® and Nike® as well as a tradition of Mattel losing legal battles time and again against artists who parodied Barbie®. 1 The Barbie® Case 1.

Suivi éditorial : Marc Vernet – Conseiller pour le patrimoine cinématographique, Inp. Loraine Pereira – Chargée de mission pour le patrimoine cinématographique, Inp. Transcription : Téléscribe RESUME On a connu jadis le cinéma permanent, où l’on pouvait à toute heure entrer voir un long métrage de fiction à vedettes. Aujourd’hui, les débats autour du numérique ont remis en avant la permanence de l’enregistrement sur pellicule analogique, par opposition à l’inconnu du devenir des oeuvres sur support numérique. Mais la création, si attentive aux matières et aux dispositifs, a suivi, pour à la fois en bénéficier et en jouer, tous les méandres des évolutions technologiques du cinéma et de l’audiovisuel, ce qui pose aujourd’hui de nombreuses questions de conservation et de présentation. A l’heure du franchissement des frontières entre cinéma et vidéo, de la mutation des salles de cinéma, Archimages10 se propose de faire le point sur le statut, la place et le rôle de l’oeuvre audiovisuelle, en particulier au sein des institutions patrimoniales. On abordera les différents moments (et les multiples difficultés) des politiques à mettre en oeuvre, dans les musées comme dans les cinémathèques : production, acquisition, conservation, migration et duplication, exposition, avec des interventions d’experts, de créateurs et de conservateurs. Friedrich Kittler ouvrira les travaux où alterneront pendant trois jours interventions et tables rondes.

    _______________________________________________________________________ The New York Times, New York, NY If You Pitch It, They Will Eat August 3, 2003 David Barboza <<<>>> This document is available on the Education Policy Studies Laboratory website at http://www.asu.edu/educ/epsl/CERU/Articles/CERU-0308-149-OWI.doc ________________________________________________________________________ The McDonald's Corporation wants to be everywhere that children are. So besides operating 13,602 restaurants in the United States, it has plastered its golden arches on Barbie dolls, video games, book jackets and even theme parks. McDonald's calls this promotion and brand extension. But, a growing number of nutritionists call it a blitzkrieg that perverts children's eating habits and sets them on a path to obesity. Marketing fast food, snacks and beverages to children is at least as old as Ronald McDonald himself. What's new, critics say, is the scope and intensity of the assault. Big food makers like McDonald's and Kraft Foods Inc. are finding every imaginable way to put their names in front of children. And they're spending more than ever -- $15 billion last year, compared with $12.5 billion in 1998, according to research conducted at Texas A&M University in College Station. "What really changed over the last decade is the proliferation of electronic media," says Susan Linn, a psychologist who studies children's marketing at Harvard's Judge Baker Children's Center. "It used to just be Saturday-morning television. Now it's Nickelodeon, movies, video games, the Internet and even marketing in schools." Product tie-ins are everywhere. There are SpongeBob SquarePants Popsicles, Oreo Cookie preschool counting books and Keebler's Scooby Doo Cookies.

    Barbie™ Dan Hunter F. Gregory Lastowka* Intellectual property laws are the means by which corporations allow access to their products. Mattel Inc.’s Barbie doll is highly dependent on the intellectual property system, and this Article provides the first serious account of the development of Barbie as an object of intellectual property. It demonstrates the significance of Barbie as an intellectual property object, and it traces how intellectual property laws emerged as such a powerful technology of control in the period from Barbie’s birth in 1959 to the present. The Article also shows that the great unrecognized feature of the intellectual property system is its ability to manipulate desire. I.

THE VENUS OF HAWTHORNE ........................................................... 159 I. INTRODUCTION Most discussions of intellectual property law miss the point. Authors tend to pick apart some small aspect of a law, explaining why their proposed reform will provide better policy outcomes, or they examine a court decision and explain why the judges there have gotten it wrong. Although many of these articles are useful contributions, they miss the larger story of how the intellectual property system works in practice, and particularly how the system has changed over the years, and how it has come to be so important in our modern day society. These accounts also fail to explain how companies have responded to the intellectual property system, and how they have engineered changes in the system over time. Although there are notable counter-examples, in general we have few accounts of the larger story of the development of © 2015 Dan Hunter and F.

    ARTISTIC EXPRESSION TODAY: CAN ARTISTS USE THE LANGUAGE OF OUR CULTURE? MARK SABLEMAN* INTRODUCTION To many of us who came of age in the era of the Vietnam War and the Nixon administration, Senator Thomas F. Eagleton epitomized the model democratic legislator—a smart and eloquent champion for what is right, even when it is not popular. Those who knew him primarily in the last decade of his life (at least those few persons with whom he did not share his views on another mistaken war and arrogant president), may have seen a different person. Particularly as his hearing loss progressed, Senator Eagleton readjusted his sensory focus and became an enthusiastic connoisseur of visual art. He visited museums and galleries, and filled his home and office (and, to the delight of his colleagues, the corridors and rooms surrounding his office) with a hand-picked collection of paintings, photographs, and posters. Eagleton the passionate policymaker, and Eagleton the art collector, may seem like two different persons, or at least two quite different personas of a multi-faceted man. But there are many connections between art and politics— and in particular between art and political persuasion—at least one of which was a lifelong passion of Senator Eagleton. Political cartoons are born at the confluence of art and politics. Senator Eagleton loved crafty and effective editorial cartoons. He collected cartoons, * Mark Sableman is a partner with Thompson Coburn LLP in St. Louis, Missouri.
