Helen Dennis (H.D.) and Keith Musgrove (K.M.) probe sound poetry with Bob Cobbing (B.C.), e.g. B.C...Basel Bunting who to my mind is our finest living poet, said that poetry is as natural as breathing - and I believe him. K.M. Not everybody can breat properly. B.C. That's true. K.M. I think poetry, the word as it is said in poetry, ought to make you breathe properly, it ought to make you catch your breath. B.C. Yes, you've got to breathe properly in order to do it - and drink properly too. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

Identifier: CC-27990-29142
Scope and Contents Dr. Bohn writes that this "study seeks to analyze Guillaume Apollinaire's literary and artistic reception by members of the European and American avant-gardes during the early twentieth century...tracing the impact of Apollinaire's ideas as they radiated outward in increasingly larger circles from Paris...limiting the period to 1920 in Europe and 1930 in Latin America...and restricting the study to the avant garde of the major European and American nations."Bohn reviews the close relation and influence of Apollinaire to Mario de Zayas, his "calligrammes" or concrete poems as they would be denoted today, in the periodical, 291. Further, he points out that Apollinaire was first recognized in America because of 291. This book is heavily slanted to the influence of Apollinaire on Spanish and Latin American poets. Indeed, Bohn lucidly reviews the works of some obscure (to Americans) Latin American visual poets like the Mexican, Juan Tablada. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth...
