Academics from famed universities situated in Sweden, the Netherlands, Germany, Spain, Bulgaria, and Romania, treat a variety of issues in English, Romanian, French and Spanish. In consequence, the collection of papers provided by this volume includes fourteen articles, a translation and two book reviews. The Literature section is delved into by authors associated with The University of Bucharest, The “A. Philippide” Institute of Romanian Philology, Iași, “St. Kliment Ohridski” University of Sofia, “1 Decembrie 1918” University of Alba Iulia and Lund University. In the present edition of the journal, there are introduced six articles meant to advance astute perceptions about cultural and linguistic values of particular literary works. Monica Manolachi approaches the concept of revolution in the prose of Romanian women writers, explored either as a change of direction (a moment in time) or as a cyclical process (a flowing gyre). Maricica Munteanu captures the conversation of the cenacle “Viața românească” from various angles. At first, as a phenomenon of loss, focusing on the voice of the writers and oral speech as signs of extreme fragility, further on, as the content of the “profitable” conversation (Glinoer, Laisney), and in the end, as the detachment from writing centring on the functions of laughter inside the literary community. The paper by Dinu Moscal examines the epithets “pale” / “pallid” in Eminescu’s lyrics by interpreting their metaphorical meaning, which belongs to the extra-existential world, differing from any concept of overcoming the antagonism being–non-being, highly represented in Eminescu’s poetry. The subject of Balkanism in Romanian contemporary poetry is investigated by Carmen Darabus. The highlighted features show a full sequence of themes and aesthetic formulae, from tragic to comic, often switching rapidly from one edge to the other, taking into account the old Thracian solemn part, then the proud Byzantium and its absorption in Constantinople – all rolling in a series of formal expressions reflected in themes and vocabulary. The article by Gabriela Chiciudean enters into the study of the novel “The Deadline” by Horia Liman. The history of an authentic world is depicted as governed by unwritten laws belonging to the morality of the common man, especially to the honour code, where the knapsack and the knife are held in high esteem; the atmosphere of the novel, its characters and their features, the difficult life and the unwritten laws are gradually unveiled through significant events. Eventually, this section is enclosed by Felix Nicolau’s paper on the impending need of an interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary super-arch-canon. This necessity is due 7 Vol. 3 No 1 (2020) SWEDISH JOURNAL OF ROMANIAN STUDIES to problematic canonizations which are prevalent in the former communist countries wherein arts and culture in general may still function as propaganda weaponry at the hands of the sponsoring state. The Theatre section serves as the background for advancing descriptive and analytical studies covering theatrical composition. In this regard, Nicoleta Popa Blanariu, an academic at “Vasile Alecsandri” University, Bacau, presents a paper dealing with a view on the way in which Matéi Visniec draws attention to how some of A. P. Chekhov’s plays also manifest a self-referential and metadramatic/ metadramaturgical component of implicit theatrical po(i)etics, beyond their psychological realism and questionable symbolism. Matéi Visniec exploits this in his own creation in close connection with the postmodern preference for intertextual and self- referential writing. In Film studies, Carmen Dominte, from National University of Music Bucharest, aims to take into discussion the manner in which light and shadow may be employed as instruments of creating literary as well as visual metaphors. At the same time, it analyses the transposition of a metaphor generated by light and shadow from literature to cinematography and theatre, as in Liviu Rebreanu’s “The Forest of the Hanged”. Translation studies is a segment that aims to present the in-depth examinations of three academics from The University of Groningen, “1 Decembrie 1918” University of Alba Iulia, and Leipzig University, respectively. Raluca Andreia Tanasescu opens the section with an article that submits to a close scrutiny the corpus of contemporary American and Canadian poetry translated into Romanian in stand-alone volumes, between 1990 and 2017. The paper argues that translators had a deciding impact on the selection of authors, as well as on the configuration of the overall translation network; translators were paramount in establishing positive relationships with U.S. and Canadian poetic approaches and in energizing the local literary scene. Further on, Andra Iulia Ursa provides an investigation on how Mircea Ivănescu’s Romanian translation deals with collocations, especially with those that typically represent Joyce’s authorial style, conceptualized in the ninth chapter of “Ulysses”. The article is committed to a further exposition of the similarities and distinctions between the source language text and the target language translation. Finally, Diana V. Burlacu provides a glimpse on a series of short Romanian translations based on the German version of Adam Fletcher’s book entitled “How to be German in 50 new steps/ Wie man Deutscher wird. In 50 neuen Schritten”. Such translations strive to retain all the meanings, be they literal or expressive, or evoked, or those generated by idioms, fixed set-phrases and non-equivalences in the original text, as much as possible freed from any traces of 8 Vol. 3 No 1 (2020) SWEDISH

  • 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.

Editors who eclectically publish friends, strain to catch "big names," or randomly regurgitate "Whatever comes in" may be popular today but are ignored tomorrow. Serious writers soon dismiss them. The first SOUP was intended as a mini-anthology, a cross-section of current work emphasizing new directions. It won approval. One consistent recommendation: SOUP should clarify its focus. Gradually I realized my main interest was toward "New Narrative" writing. Since Bruce Boone's essay on the "Talks" issue of HILLS suggests some central objectives 'of this project if only by way of comparison to certain other writers I need add little by way of introduction. New Narrative is language conscious but arises out of specific social and political concerns of specific communities. It may be foregrounded as in the work of Luisah Teish, Shirley Garzotto, Robert Gluck and Judy Grahn or more buried as in recent work by Leslie Scalipino and Aaron Shurin. It stresses the enabling role of content in determining form rather than stressing form as independent or separate from its social origins and goals.

By 1926 Gertrude Stein had already identified the essential dynamic governing the reception of experimental writing. "For a very long time," she writes, "everybody refuses and then almost without a pause almost everybody accepts. In the history of the refused in the arts and literature the rapidity of the change is always startling." The 1993-94 publishing season marks such a moment of rapid and startling change. In the span of a few months, a half-century of “refused” poetry has made its way, if not into universal acceptance, then at least into significantly increased accessibility. The agents of that change: five anthologies, published by presses as divergent as Marsilio, Sun & Moon, Norton, Potes & Poets, and o•blek. With a collective page count pushing 3000, and a combined roster of 288 authors, the sheer scale of these collections is enough to startle anyone accustomed to tracking the cutting edge of poetic practice through magazines with circulation lists of a hundred people, books brought out in editions of 1000 and gone out of print in an instant, or smudged xeroxes of poems that can’t get printed at all.
