WILSON FONDS Dates of creation: 1941–1996 Extent: 55 cm of textual records Biographical sketch: Milton Thomas Wilson, a scholar of Romantic poetry and an editor of Canadian Forum, was born in Toronto in 1923 to Mr and Mrs G. S. Wilson. He attended St Andrew’s College in Aurora, Ontario. In 1940, Wilson began studying English at Trinity College in the University of Toronto, but he interrupted his education in 1943 to serve in the Canadian navy during the Second World War. He returned to Toronto to obtain his BA and MA degrees in 1945 and 1946 respectively. After teaching briefly at the University of Syracuse, he was appointed lecturer at Trinity College in 1949. He completed a PhD at Columbia University in 1957. He became full professor at Trinity College in 1966 and professor emeritus in 1988. In 1975, Wilson became the first chair of the University of Toronto Department of English. (The English departments of the colleges at the University of Toronto had previously merged together under the direction of a committee of which Wilson was also chair.) Wilson worked as literary editor (1954-59) and managing editor (1959-68) of Canadian Forum. Among his publications are Shelley's Later Poetry (1959, republished 1974) and E. J. Pratt (1969). He is the editor of Poetry of Mid-Century (1964) and Poets Between the Wars (1967). He is a fellow of the Royal Society of Canada. Wilson married Joanna Crawford, daughter of Mr and Mrs John Knox Crawford, on 6 September 1947.They had six children: Barbara, Katharine, Gregory, Victoria, Timothy, and Antony. Professor Wilson died in Toronto on 22 March 2013. Scope and content: Fonds consists of records relating to Dr Wilson’s academic career, publications, and administrative role in the departments of English at Trinity College and the University of Toronto as well as correspondence, including poetry, relating to his position as editor of Canadian Forum. Contains series 1. Literary correspondence 2. Academic work 3. Trinity College and University of Toronto Departments of English 4. Publications 2 Wilson fonds Notes: Acquisition history: The records contained in the first and second boxes were received from Dr Wilson by Linda Corman, head librarian of the Trinity College John W. Graham Library, who transferred them to the Archives on 15 November 1991 (accession 1991-0018), with the exception of the Series 3 records in the second box. The latter were located in the Archives and accessioned (no. 2009-0003) by the Archivist in 2009; their provenance is unknown. The records contained in the third, fourth, and fifth boxes were found in the Professors Emeritus office by the Rolph-Bell Archivist, Sylvia Lassam, in October 2012, and were immediately transferred to the archives (accession 2013-21). Arrangement: With the exception of the Series 3 material in the second box and the Irving Layton and Al Purdy files, for all of which original order was maintained, the original order of materials in the first two boxes is unknown; there was likely no apparent order. A chronological order within files in the first and second boxes was imposed sometime after 1991 by staff of the Trinity College Archives (with undated items at the end of each file). Arrangement of the folders in Series 1 in alphabetical order by correspondent’s last name was also likely imposed by Archives staff. The folders in the third, fourth, and fifth boxes were arranged by series and then chronologically by C. Schmidt. Within folders, original order was maintained, though minor weeding and tidying was done. Two publications were removed from the 2012 accession and offered to the Trinity College John W. Graham Library: Lloyd Abbey’s The Antlered Boy (Oberon Press, 1984) and Criticism: A Quarterly for Literature and the Arts (Vol. II, No. 2 – contains a review of Wilson’s Shelley’s Later Poetry by Richard Harter Fogle, pp. 214-216). Restrictions on access: Some material in poor condition in the first and second boxes has been photocopied on acid-free paper and placed next to the original. Researchers are asked to avoid using the originals where photocopies exist. Some files are closed; see series-level access note. Terms governing use and reproduction / publication: Various copyright holders. It is the researcher's responsibility to obtain permission to publish any part of the fonds. Associated material: Correspondence from Milton Wilson to Irving Layton, 1958-1969, is held at Concordia University. Photocopies of this correspondence are available in General Accession 2014-41. Provenance access points Wilson, Milton T. (1923- ) 3 Wilson fonds SERIES 1: LITERARY CORRESPONDENCE Dates of creation: [1955?] – [before 1991] Extent: 11 cm of textual records Scope and content: Correspondence, often regarding the submission or revision of poetry for the Canadian Forum. In addition to letters to Wilson, there are a substantial number of separate poems, mainly originals with the exception of a few photocopied items in one of the Layton files. The poems are often annotated by their respective authors, and there are sometimes several different versions of the same poems. It seems Wilson kept few copies of his replies to his correspondents, but there are some finished, as well as drafted, replies.

  • The Artist As a Work-In-Progress: General Idea and the Construction of Collective Identity
    Forum for Modern Language Studies Vol. 48,No.4, doi: 10.1093/fmls/cqs022 THE ARTIST AS A WORK-IN-PROGRESS: GENERAL IDEA AND THE CONSTRUCTION OF COLLECTIVE IDENTITY DEBORAH BARKUN ABSTRACT Downloaded from In its twenty-five years of activity (1969–1994), the art collective General Idea developed a complex artistic mythology and identity that permitted it to produce a substantial corpus of work while confronting challenges provoked by evolving social relationships and, eventually, HIV/AIDS. The group main- tained a cohesive partnership, a ‘collaborative body’ that subsumed individual members’ identities within a collective whole. This paper analyses the concep- http://fmls.oxfordjournals.org/ tual projects and artists’ statements of the group’s first decade, many of which belong to the domain of Correspondence and Mail Art. It argues that these textual and performative artworks strategically constructed an elaborate collect- ive identity. They equally functioned as a vehicle through which to develop methods and strategies of collaborative practice, reflecting debates about authorship such as those theorized contemporaneously by Roland Barthes and Michel Foucault. Keywords: General Idea; collaboration; authorship; collectivity; Correspondence Art; Conceptual Art; Mail Art; manifesto; performance; gender; sexuality by guest on October 16, 2012 IN 1969,CANADIAN ARTISTS AA Bronson (b. Michael Tims), Jorge Zontal (b. Slobodan Saia-Levi) and Felix Partz (b. Ron Gabe) formed a multimedia art collective named General Idea (Figure 1).1 General Idea’s formation was less deliberate than organic, a process evoked by the biological metaphors the group later used to characterize its collaboration, and the concepts and dissemination of its work.

  • The Language Revolution: Borderblur Poetics in Canada, 1963-1988
    THE LANGUAGE REVOLUTION: BORDERBLUR POETICS IN CANADA, 1963-1988 ERIC SCHMALTZ A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN ENGLISH YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO JUNE 2018 © ERIC SCHMALTZ, 2018 ii Abstract This dissertation examines the emergence and development of a radical node of Canadian poetic activity known as the Language Revolution––that is, a movement concerned with the creation and proliferation of largely non-lyrical poetic modes by a number of Canadian poets whose careers mostly began in the 1960s and early 1970s. These poets include well-known writers like bpNichol, bill bissett, and Steve McCaffery alongside lesser-known but equally important figures such as Judith Copithorne, Martina Clinton, Gerry Shikatani, David UU, Susan McMaster, and Penn Kemp. As a loose affiliation, they gathered around shared values of poetic experimentation and small press literary culture, but they also actively pushed the boundaries of writing by exploring concrete poetry, sound poetry, and haptic poetry––the core topics of this dissertation’s three chapters. These poets described their work as “borderblur,” a term that acknowledges a broad range of poetic and artistic activity that seeks to dissolve boundaries between language, visuality, materiality, sound, and bodies. Over the course of this study, I examine how the poets of the Language Revolution develop a borderblur-based poetic as a reaction to problems posed by the expression of feeling during a period when human life was being standardized by emergent telecommunication technologies, a rapid increase in consumerism, and major shifts––documented by Marshall McLuhan and others––in human psychic and social life.

  • MS COACH HOUSE PRESS (Papers) Coll 00620
    MS COACH HOUSE PRESS (Papers) Coll 00620 Gift of Stan Bevington, 2007-08 Dates: [196-]-2005 Extent: 172 Boxes (20.5 metres) Scope and Content: This is the first accession of the Coach House Press (CHP) papers by the Fisher Library. It primarily includes files accumulated and maintained by Stan Bevington, founder of the CHP. (While Library and Archives Canada holds a significant amount of Coach House Press materials, Bevington held back many of his own personal files related to CHP, with the intention of donating them to the Fisher Library.) The papers include accounting materials for the Press – price quotes, sales invoices, payroll information, etc. – and other materials related to the running of the CHP. It also includes material collected by Bevington, dubbed “Stan’s ephemera,” which contain handwritten notes written by Bevington, as well as correspondence, programs and other assorted and interesting items. The collection is particularly noteworthy for its extensive collection of computer-related material, including the files for SoftQuad, the company co-founded by Bevington that was at the forefront of the digital age in publishing. Bevington is considered a publishing pioneer in the transition to digital technology from traditional typesetting. Administrative History: Long considered one of the leading small-press publishers in Canada, Coach House Press was founded in 1965 by printer Stan Bevington and editor Wayne Clifford. In its formative years, Coach House was a cohesive printing and publishing unit, publishing innovative and activist open-form writers from the United States and Canada in a style characterized by hand-set type and multi-coloured offset printing.

There was not then much to choose from. Quebec publishing being considered apart in an article by Nairn Kattan, there was in English Canada a landscape of big commercial presses and non-commercial little presses, and it was on this basis that the issue was arranged. Wynne Francis (who appears again in this symposium) wrote on the little presses. Presenting various views on the established houses, John Morgan Gray of Macmillan wrote as publisher, John Robert Colombo — with experience at the University of Toronto Press and McClelland & Stewart — wrote as editor, Bill Duthie — with experience as sales representative of two leading publishers — wrote as bookseller. Finally, a panel of writers, magazine editors and reviewers expressed their views on the current state of publishing; it was mainly a dim view, with most of its scanty light focussed on McClelland & Stewart, who then seemed to offer all that was hopeful in Canadian publishing. The present collection differs from the past in more respects than it resembles it, and thus reflects the changes that have taken place over such a brief period in the Canadian publishing situation.

    The Governor General’s Literary Awards: English-Language Winners, 1936–2013 Andrew David Irvine* Entries are now being received for the Governor-General’s Annual Literary Awards for 1937, arranged by the Canadian Author’s Association. Medals will be given for the best books of fiction, poetry and general literature, respectively. The book must have been published during the calendar year 1937; and the author must be a Canadian. … There is no particular closing date. When the judges have read all the books, they will name the winners and that will end the matter. William Arthur Deacon1 This list2 of Governor General’s Literary Award–winning books differs from previous lists in several ways. It includes • five award-winning books from 1948, 1963, 1965, and 1984 (three in English and two in French) inadvertently omitted from previous lists; • the division of winning titles into historically accurate award categories; • a full list of books by non-winning finalists who have received cash prizes, a practice that began in 2002; • a full list of declined awards; • more detailed bibliographical information than can be found in most other lists; and 1* Andrew Irvine holds the position of professor and head of Economics, Philosophy, and Political Science at the University of British Columbia, Okanagan. Errata may be sent to the author at [email protected]. 11 William Arthur Deacon, The Fly Leaf, Globe and Mail, 9 April 1938, 15. 12 The list is split between two articles.

  • The Steve Mccaffery Archive
    The Steve McCaffery Archive The Archive offers a distinct opportunity for rich scholarly exploration into concrete, sound, and language poetry through published and unpublished manuscripts, correspondence, drawings, journals, sketchbooks, audio/video recordings and ephemera. Photo illustration (not part of the archive) based on the poster “Four Horsemen Canadada,” shown below. “Though he would be among the first people to point out the inherent problems with the terminology, poet and scholar Steve McCaffery is one of the major architects of postmodern Canadian literature and was a major player in the Canadian avant-garde of the 1970s. With fellow poet bpNichol, he formed the Toronto Research Group in 1973 … With Nichol, Paul Dutton and Rafael Barreto-Rivera, McCaffery also formed the highly influential sound poetry collective, The Four Horsemen. McCaffery’s writing, both creative and critical, is concerned to some extent with going beyond the sentence and the word, beyond syntax.” — Ryan Cox, “Trans-Avant-Garde: An Interview with Steve McCaffery,” Taxi Online Edition, Winter 2007/2008 . Steve McCaffery (1947–) Poet and scholar Steve McCaffery was born in Sheffield, England. He received his B.A. from Hull University, his M.A. from York University, and his Ph.D. from the program in poetics, English, and comparative literature at SUNY Buffalo. He is a scholar, poet, and performer whose wide-ranging influence is especially present in concrete and sound poetry. His numerous books of poetry include the full-length collections Modern Reading: Poems 1969–1990 (Writers Forum, 1991), Seven Pages Missing: Selected Texts Volume One (Coach House Press, 2001) and Volume Two (Coach House Press, 2002), Verse and Worse: Selected and New Poems of Steve McCaffery 1989– 2009 (Wilfrid Laurier University Press, 2010).

DARREN WERSCHLER-HENRY 99 Contributors 115 6 Open Letter 9.8 appears to reflect what Karl Siegler elsewhere in this issue describes as a Editorial shift from “culture based” to “business based” funding. As if to cor- roborate this, the Canada Council letter informing us of the two grants noted that the jury “considered your audience too small and limited for the mandate of the Council’s program” (although the program is advertised as open to all periodicals of more than 500 circulation). Clearly there is a preference being signalled here, again using Siegler’s terms, for “sales-driven” periodicals over “editorially-driven” ones. Grateful as we are to receive the marketing grant, which we plan to use to help establish Readers may have noticed some slight changes in the format, paper an Open Letter web site that will offer summaries of the articles in current quality, and editorial content of recent issues of Open Letter.
