    BIBLIOASIS SPRING 2011 2 NEW RELEASE: SHORT FICTION The Meagre Tarmac The Clark Blaise Meagre Tarmac First new collection of short fiction by master storyist in nearly twenty years. The Meagre Tarmac is master storywriter Clark Blaise’s first new collection of short fiction in nearly two decades. A suite of linked stories about the trials and tribulations of several generations of Indo-Americans, these are stories of great literary and sociological import. Grappling with the changing nature of race relations in post 9-11 America and the spectre (and reality) of terrorism, The Meagre Tarmac will serve to remind readers why Clark Blaise is one of the most important storywriters of his generation, a true North American treasure: this is vintage Blaise, stories straddling borders, clashing cultures and traditions, stories poverty, affluence, despair and hope, offering an outsider’s view of the changing heart of America that is both ruthless and profoundly moving.

  • The Forties: a Doctorate in Creative and Critical Writing
    The Forties: A Doctorate in Creative and Critical Writing Todd Swift Thesis submitted in fulfilment of the degree of PhD University of East Anglia Faculty of Humanities School of Literature and Creative Writing August, 2011 © This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that use of any information derived therefrom must be in accordance with current UK copyright law. In addition, any quotation or extract must include full attribution. ABSTRACT Todd Swift, 2011, ‗The Forties: A Doctorate in Creative and Critical Writing‘ This work is in two parts: a portfolio of creative writing (poetry), preceded by a critical thesis. In the critical aspect of my dissertation I contest a dominant account of poetic creation and influence in the period 1938–1954, and consider a third line of influence that arose in post-war British poetry. The methodology follows in the footsteps of Other Traditions by John Ashbery: literary criticism by a practitioner. My critical writing complements my poetry collection, whose various styles and registers relate to the poetic influences discussed. My first three chapters develop the argument as follows: Chapter One considers ideas of ‗style‘ and ‗poetic style‘. Chapter Two narrows in on the idea of ‗period style‘ in poetry and turns more specifically into a discussion of the Forties Style in Poetry. Chapter Three looks directly at the period under question, the Forties, and its key poet, Dylan Thomas, as read by critics. Chapter Four discusses F.T. Prince, a major poet much overlooked.

Feminist Periodicals: A Current Listing of Contents is published by the Office of the U(liversity of Wisconsin System Women's Studies Librarian on a quarterly basis with the intent of increasing public awareness of feminist periodicals. It is our hope that Feminist Periodicals will serve several purposes: to keep the reader abreast of current topics in feminist literature; to increase readers' familiarity with a wide spectrum offeminist periodicals; and to provide the requisite bibliographic information should a reader wish to subscribe to ajournal or to obtain a particular article at her library or through interlibrary loan. (Users will need to be aware of the limitations of the new copyright law with regard to photocopying of copyrighted materials.) Table ofcontents pages from currentissues ofmajor feministjournals are reproduced in each issue of Feminist Periodicals, preceded by a comprehensive annotated listing of all journals we have selected. As publication schedules vary enormously, not every periodical will have table of contents pages reproduced in each issue of FP. The annotated listing provides the following information on each journal: 1. Year of first pUblication. 2. Frequency of publication. 3. U.S. subscription price(s). 4. Subscription address. 5. Current editor. 6. Editorial address (if different from SUbscription address).

    0 ***FRIDAY*** Registration (1:00 pm – 5:00 pm) Registration Lobby Session F PM1 (2:00 pm - 3:15 pm) Technology Integration in the Classroom: Pedagogical East Room 1 Challenges and Opportunities Educators recognize that technology in the classroom distracts and disrupts productive thinking. Yet, as educators in the field of communication it is essential that our students know how to engage, utilize, and communicate with that very same distracting technology. Media literacy is a necessity for today’s student. Gunther Kress clearly articulates the complexity that exists at the intersection of media, technology and critical thinking, “The range and forms of available information are changing with the advent of new digital literacies, but we need to be aware that these are not replacing other literacies. Rather they are overlaying them and increasing the complexity of what can and must be learned with the demands of multi-layered meanings and more complex semiotic systems (2003.) Panelists will discuss the pedagogical challenges and opportunities for technology integration in the classroom. Topics to be addressed include: course lessons, technology tools, and curriculum outcomes or goals that use technology in the classroom to foster critical thinking, ignite students’ imagination, mindfulness and thoughtfulness in the classroom through the use of technology in the classroom.

  • Poetry and Performance: Listening to a Multi-Vocal Canada
    0Poetry and Performance: Listening to a Multi-Vocal Canada by Katherine Marikaan McLeod A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of English, University of Toronto © Copyright by Katherine Marikaan McLeod (2010) ii Poetry and Performance: Listening to a Multi-Vocal Canada Doctor of Philosophy (2010) Katherine Marikaan McLeod Graduate Department of English, University of Toronto 1Abstract Performances of poetry constitute significant cultural and literary events that challenge the representational limits and possibilities of transposing written words into live and recorded media. However, there has not been a comprehensive study of Canadian poetry that focuses specifically on performance. This dissertation undertakes a theorizing of performance that foregrounds mediation, audience, and presence (both readerly and writerly). The complex methodology combines theoretical approaches to reading (Linda Hutcheon on adaptation, Wolfgang Iser on the reader, and Roland Barthes on the materiality of writing) with poetics as theorized by Canadian poets (namely bpNichol, Steve McCaffery, Jan Zwicky, Robert Bringhurst) in order to argue that performances of poetry are responsive exchanges between performers and audiences. Importantly, the dissertation argues that performances of poetry call for a re-evaluation of reading as listening, thereby altering the interaction between audience and performance from passive to participatory. Arranged in four chapters, the dissertation examines a range of Canadian poets and performances: The Four Horsemen (Rafael Barreto-Rivera, Paul Dutton, Steve McCaffery, and bpNichol), dance adaptations of Michael Ondaatje’s poems, George Elliott Clarke’s poetic libretti, and Robert Bringhurst’s polyphonic poetry. Following the Introduction’s iii outlining of the term performance, Chapter One examines processes of recording and adapting avant-garde sound poetry, specifically in the sound and written poetry of Nichol and McCaffery.
