Included are photocopies of Blackburn's correspondence and manuscripts deposited in other libraries and Jarolim's correspondence with Blackburn's family and friends. Also of interest are her copious notes on the composition of each of Blackburn's poems. The research items on Paul Blackburn date between 1934 and 1975, while the material related to her publications date between 1981-1985. Scope and Content of Collection The Edith Jarolim Collection is a valuable resource for researchers seeking information on the life and work of Paul Blackburn and those who are interested in the process of editing a collected work. The materials occupy 4.4 linear feet. Included are photocopies of correspondence by Paul Blackburn and by Edith Jarolim and photocopies of Blackburn's work contained in other institutional and private manuscript collections consulted by Jarolim. The collection also contains production materials for The Collected Poems of Paul Blackburn published in 1985. The Paul Blackburn items span the years 1934 to 1975, while the book production materials and related correspondence date between 1981-1985. The collection is arranged in two series: 1) RESEARCH MATERIALS and 2) BOOK PRODUCTION MATERIALS. SERIES ONE: RESEARCH MATERIALS The first series, RESEARCH MATERIALS, is divided into two subseries: A) Subject Files: The Collected Poems of Paul Blackburn and B) Subject Files: Miscellaneous. The first subseries contains the research files Jarolim used and correspondence she wrote while preparing The Collected Poems of Paul Blackburn. Included in this series are photocopies of the earliest known typescripts of Blackburn's poems and letters written to or by Blackburn. Jarolim photocopied most of the material in this series from manuscript collections from libraries and individuals around the nation. The photocopies date between 1934 and 1975. This subseries also includes correspondence between Jarolim and Blackburn's family, colleagues and friends. The Jarolim correspondence is dated 1981-1985. Also included in this subseries are several hundred notecards filled with Jarolim's research notes on Blackburn's poems. The notecards record the name of Blackburn's poems, the date and location of the poem's composition, and the sources Jarolim used to verify this information. The notecards have been placed at the beginning of this subseries. The manuscript material and Jarolim correspondence is arranged alphabetically according to the institution or individual the material originated from, and then chronologically. The second subseries, Subject Files: Miscellaneous, contains research material compiled by Jarolim that is not clearly linked to her editing of The Collected Poems of Paul Blackburn. Included in this subseries are photocopies of published books and articles written by Paul Blackburn with Jarolim's annotations and miscellaneous articles about Paul Blackburn. Also included are research materials, such as copies of Blackburn manuscript collections, notes and correspondence that Jarolim compiled while editing The Parallel Voyages (1987). This subseries is arranged so that the articles about and by Blackburn are placed at the beginning and are followed by the photocopies of Blackburn's published manuscripts, arranged alphabetically by title. The research material for The Parallel Voyages is placed at the end. SERIES TWO: BOOK PRODUCTION MATERIALS The second series, BOOK PRODUCTION MATERIALS contains correspondence, typescripts, art work, galley pages and page proofs for The Collected Poems of Paul Blackburn. The material in this series is arranged so that it mirrors the book production process from beginning to end.

How could we sit down on this matrix, could I put a pebble on the smooth stone like the old Jew puts on a grave (every stone is a tombstone), we could leave it behind us and walk down into the drenched meadow towards the far trees we never quite get to, down the path to the hidden stream where it pools out for a moment and already skunk cabbages are starting to make their move but still this simple-minded sixty-four compartmented conundrum hangs in the mind, all numbers are the men and the board, the pawns and the queen, the silly little blue faience lumps Egyptians used to while away long years of being dead.

  • An Interview with Mary Laird Conducted by Kyle Schlesinger

    An Interview with Mary Laird Conducted by Kyle Schlesinger

    REMEMBERING THE LIGHT: AN INTERVIEW WITH MARY LAIRD CONDUCTED BY KYLE SCHLESINGER Mary Laird is a book artist, printer, teacher, and actively involved in the Sufi Order of the West. She earned her MFA from University of Wisconsin at Madison where she and Walter Hamady ran the legendary Perishable Press Limited together for 15 years. She has been printing letterpress as Quelquefois Press since 1969, and has taught at San Francisco State University, Naropa University, San Francisco Center for the Book, and in her Berkeley studio. KS: Perhaps I could begin at the beginning, so to speak, by asking about your earliest associations and affinities for books. For example, were there books in the home where you grew up? Did you write or keep scrapbooks as a kid? Who were some of the first writers and artists that enlivened your imagination or got you thinking about books as an exploratory medium? I know, for example, that Robert Duncan and Jonathan Williams treasured their libraries from childhood, and I think that there are traces of that ongoing affinity in their mature work. ML: When I was growing up in Wauwatosa, Wisconsin, a suburb of Milwaukee, we had a whole room upstairs, dedicated as “library.” In it were editions of Dickens, John Burroughs, Cervantes (complete with etchings,) Jane Austen, Thackeray, and Samuel Clements, to name a few. They were all from my paternal grandfather Arthur Gordon’s turn of the century collection. One memorable tome on the world religions, published in 1893, featured an etching of Mohammad, which as you know, is forbidden! Arthur Gordon was a student at Cornell in Ithaca, New York, back then, having made his way from Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia.

Without a press of its own, however, the college relied on the office typewriter for the first preliminary announcements and more generally on Biltmore Press, Asheville’s leading commercial job printer, for its first years’ issues of bulletins, catalogs, and educational statements. But for the purposes of his students’ education, and for the second-tier job printing of administrative forms and stationery, publicity flyers and brochures, programs and announcements for musical and dramatic presentations, Albers needed a press.1 He set Alexander (Xanti) Schawinsky on the hunt for one.

    The Stamp of Class: Reflections on Poetry and Social Class Gary Lenhart http://www.press.umich.edu/titleDetailLookInside.do?id=104886 The University of Michigan Press, 2005. Opening the Field The New American Poetry By the time that Melvin B. Tolson was composing Libretto for the Republic of Liberia, a group of younger poets had already dis- missed the formalism of Eliot and his New Critic followers as old hat. Their “new” position was much closer to that of Langston Hughes and others whom Tolson perceived as out- moded, that is, having yet to learn—or advance—the lessons of Eliotic modernism. Inspired by action painting and bebop, these younger poets valued spontaneity, movement, and authentic expression. Though New Critics ruled the established maga- zines and publishing houses, this new audience was looking for something different, something having as much to do with free- dom as form, and ‹nding it in obscure magazines and readings in bars and coffeehouses. In 1960, many of these poets were pub- lished by a commercial press for the ‹rst time when their poems were gathered in The New American Poetry, 1946–1960. Editor Donald Allen claimed for its contributors “one common charac- teristic: total rejection of all those qualities typical of academic verse.” The extravagance of that “total” characterizes the hyperbolic gestures of that dawn of the atomic age. But what precisely were these poets rejecting?

Negro Anthology. 4to, illustrations, fold-out map, original brown linen over beveled boards, lettered and stamped in red, top edge stained brown. London: Published by Nancy Cunard at Wishart & Co, 1934. First edition, first issue binding, of this landmark anthology. Nancy Cunard, an independently wealthy English heiress, edited Negro Anthology with her African-American lover, Henry Crowder, to whom she dedicated the anthology, and published it at her own expense in an edition of 1000 copies. Cunard’s seminal compendium of prose, poetry, and musical scores chiefly reflecting the black experience in the United States was a socially and politically radical expression of Cunard’s passionate activism, her devotion to civil rights and her vehement anti-fascism, which, not surprisingly given the times in which she lived, contributed to a communist bias that troubles some critics of Cunard and her anthology. Cunard’s account of the trial of the Scottsboro Boys, published in 1932, provoked racist hate mail, some of which she published in the anthology. Among the 150 writers who contributed approximately 250 articles are W. E. B. Du Bois, Arna Bontemps, Sterling Brown, Countee Cullen, Alain Locke, Arthur Schomburg, Samuel Beckett, who translated a number of essays by French writers; Langston Hughes, Zora Neale Hurston, William Carlos Williams, Louis Zukofsky, George Antheil, Ezra Pound, Theodore Dreiser, among many others.
