Collier, Mike (2012) Street Flowers: Urban Survivors of the Privileged Land: Conference Paper and Published Essay
Collier, Mike (2012) Street Flowers: Urban Survivors of the Privileged Land: Conference Paper and Published Essay. In: Tourism, Roads and Cultural Itineraries: Meaning, Memory and Development. Laval University, Quebec. ISBN 978-2-7637-1789-0 (Unpublished) Downloaded from: http://sure.sunderland.ac.uk/id/eprint/3728/ Usage guidelines Please refer to the usage guidelines at http://sure.sunderland.ac.uk/policies.html or alternatively contact [email protected]. Street Flowers – Urban Survivors of the Privileged Land Dr. Mike Collier, Programme Leader and Principal Investigator for WALK1, University of Sunderland Abstract In this essay, I want to explore the way in which we relate to our environment and its often contested histories through the simple action of taking a meander through an Edgeland2 urban site – a site local to me and the place where I work (Sunderland in the North East of England). It is my contention that the action of moving slowly (or meandering) through an environment affects our experience of that place in ways that are not immediately apparent. Meandering allows the walker to stop whenever and wherever they find something interesting to ‘explore’; and it allows them time to respond to the weather patterns and soundscapes of an environment. This creates an embodied experience which, when meandering in a group, seems to encourage the body and mind to respond by meandering across a range of different areas of thought. In my projects, these have included discussions around natural history, social history, politics and philosophy explored together in non-hierarchical and unstructured ways; ways which create new patterns of interdisciplinary and interconnected thinking. -

Changes in Oral Poetics in Britain Since 1965
Oral Tradition, 21/1 (2006): 44-67 “Blasts of Language”: Changes in Oral Poetics in Britain since 1965 Nicky Marsh, Peter Middleton, and Victoria Sheppard In 1943 George Orwell described the situation of poetry in terms almost unimaginable 60 years later: “many people who write verse have never even considered the idea of reading it aloud” (1994:240). He knew what he was talking about because he was trying to persuade poets to contribute to a wartime broadcasting experiment that aimed to win the minds of intellectuals in India by making a poetry magazine available on the radio. He also felt that the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) had done little in this area in Britain. Although the BBC would go on to make poetry broadcasting a significant but small part of its programming, their initiative would remain of limited importance to poets, as would the production of LP and later tape and CD recordings. What did change was the growth of live performance by poets who would willingly read aloud; over the next few decades speaking poetry aloud would become central to most poets’ reputation and reception. Today all but a very few dissenters read their work aloud, some are more performers than writers, and for many poets performance is an integral part of their writing career—compositionally, socially, and not least financially. One arts organizer goes so far as to say that “more poets read more often than at any time since the troubadours” (Robinson 2002:7). The situation has reached the point where the refusal to read aloud can become as distinctive as the elective anonymity of a novelist like Thomas Pynchon. -
Basil Bunting E T Les Métamorphoses D E L A
L'Atelier 6.2 (2014) La Transmission B ASIL BUNTING ET LES MÉTAMORPHOSES DE LA TRANSMISSION CLAIRE HÉLIE Université de Lille 3 – Charles de Gaulle 1. Parmi les nombreuses anecdotes que Basil Bunting aimait à raconter, il en est une qui met en scène un fantasme de transmission de poète lauréat (ou du moins éternel dauphin) à poète en herbe : My father used to take me up to Capheaton sometimes and he knew some of the Swinburnes. We walked about the park and looked at the lake and so forth and it’s just chance that when I was a small boy Swinburne never had met me. He’d do what he would always have done, what he did to all the children on Putney Heath: he’d pat me on the head and present me with half a crown. And that would have been very interesting to me because when he was a little boy of eight or nine, as I, he was taken to Grasmere where he met an old gentleman who patted him on the head, but did not offer him half a crown – he was too frugal – and that was William Wordsworth! and I thought that a splendid thing!1 2. La nature sans doute apocryphe de ce récit ne déprécie en rien la valeur que Bunting accordait à cet acte de transmission, fondateur de son identité poétique. S’y retrouvent tous les éléments d’un rite de passage : la figure paternelle qui non seulement initie le fils à la randonnée mais l’intronise aussi au cercle fermé des aristocrates locaux ; la main passée dans les cheveux de l’enfant qui évoque moins un geste de tendresse qu’une cérémonie d’adoubement ; l’octroi d’une demi- couronne qui fonctionne comme un σύμβολον2, un symbole de reconnaissance ouvrant à une confrérie ; la couronne elle-même dont on peut penser qu’elle est, dans l’esprit du poète du moins, moins d’argent que de lauriers ; la répétition du geste à travers les âges qui transforme cet acte en rituel ; enfin, la référence à une figure tutélaire par qui tout a commencé, Wordsworth. -

Further Reading: 99 Poets
Further Reading: 99 Poets This by no means exhaustive list of poets who, if not all currently alive, at least lived into the twenty-first century (Barry MacSweeney and Douglas Oliver died in 2000), is meant as a prompt for further reading for those curious to discover more about contemporary British “modernist” poetry. For reasons of space (not to men- tion ignorance), the list can only be at best provisional, and in particular cannot do justice to the proliferation of work by young poets, although much of this work can be found in the more recent of the anthologies we list. Wherever possible, collected poems have been used, in its most up-to-date edi- tion; more recent volumes are also included. For poets without a collected edition, we have provided what we think to be a representative sample of their work. We also provide poets’ blogs.
