"The very existence of poetry should make us laugh. What is it all about? What is it for?"
--Kenneth Koch
“El subtítulo ‘Modelo para armar’ podría llevar a creer que las
diferentes partes del relato, separadas por blancos, se proponen como piezas permutables.”

Valente / Celan
Another article is up on KU ScholarWorks. And thisone. The problem with this is I am addicted to stats. I'll be checking every day to see how many times my articles are downloaded.
You will despise me for this but I had never heard Valente's name before I started reading your blog. And what a shame because I find your analogy between him and Goytisolo to be fascinating.
I think a lot of people just don't study poetry any more in Graduate School. I can't just go around despising everyone that doesn't have the exact same background as I do.
Valente and Goytisolo were very good friends, and Goytisolo acknowledges him in La virtudes del pájaro solitario.
Are you sure you don't have Asperger's? :-) An addiction to stats sounds very familiar. :-)
ResponderEliminarI have moved my blog to WordPress. Now the url is much simpler. Here it is: http://clarissasblog.com/
Of course, if I'd known how stressed out I would get because of the move, I'd never have undertaken it.

That's one book by Goytisolo that I didn't manage to get through. Maybe I should.
ResponderEliminarGreat article on Valente and Celan.
