By the end of 1964, he had met poet Raymond Souster and founded Island Magazine and Island Press, drawing the avant-garde poetry centre from the West Coast to Toronto. Mr. Coleman was a publishing assistant for the Oxford University Press in Toronto from 1966 to 1967, after which he served for almost ten years as the editor for Coach House Press. Coleman was influential in the creations of Is, Image Nation, The Goose & Duck and Open Letter magazines and journals. He published his own poetry in From Erik Satie’s Notes to the Music (Island Press, 1965),  One/eye/love (Coach House Press, 1967), Light Verse (Coach House Press, 1969), Old Friends’ Ghosts: Poems 1963-68 (Weed/Flower, 1970), along with a dozen other titles. Victor Coleman was the director of the “A Space” (1975-1978), “31 Mercer” (1975-1978), Nightingale Arts Council in Toronto, the editor and writer for the Association of Non-Profit Artist-Run Centres, and has served as the director of the National Film Theatre in Kingston, Ontario. The poet also taught Creative Writing at both Queen's and York Universities. In 1995, as Coach House Press struggled, Coleman and Stan Bevington created Coach House Books to save the Press. In 2001, Victor Coleman became the Editorial Director for the Centre for Contemporary Canadian Art, a website devoted to the promotion of Canadian artists and writers. Victor Coleman continues to promote the development of avant-garde or postmodernist Canadian writing.\",\"nation\":[],\"role\":[\"Author\",\"Performer\"]},{\"url\":\"http://viaf.org/viaf/34469976\",\"name\":\"Bowering, George\",\"dates\":\"1935-\",\"notes\":\"Mentioned, but missing from recording\",\"nation\":[],\"role\":[]}]"],"contributors_names":["Francis, Wynne"],"contributors_names_search":["Francis, Wynne"],"contributors":["[{\"url\":\"http://viaf.org/viaf/77926194\",\"name\":\"Francis, Wynne\",\"dates\":\"1918-2000\",\"notes\":\"\",\"nation\":[],\"role\":[\"Presenter\",\"Series organizer\"]}]"],"Presenter_name":["Francis, Wynne"],"Series_organizer_name":["Francis, Wynne"],"Performance_Date":[1967],"material_description":["[{\"side\":\"\",\"image\":\"\",\"other\":\"\",\"extent\":\"1/4 inch\",\"AV_types\":\"Audio\",\"tape_brand\":\"Scotch\",\"generations\":\"\",\"Conservation\":\"\",\"equalization\":\"\",\"playback_mode\":\"Mono\",\"playing_speed\":\"\",\"sound_quality\":\"Excellent\",\"recording_type\":\"Analogue\",\"storage_capacity\":\"Tape\",\"physical_condition\":\"\",\"track_configuration\":\"\",\"material_designation\":\"Reel to Reel\",\"physical_composition\":\"Magnetic Tape\",\"accompanying_material\":\"\",\"other_physical_description\":\"\"}]"],"material_designations":["Reel to Reel"],"physical_compositions":["Magnetic Tape"],"recording_type":["Analogue"],"AV_type":["Audio"],"playback_mode":["Mono"],"Dates":["[{\"date\":\"1967 3 3\",\"type\":\"Performance Date\",\"notes\":\"Date specified in \\\"Georgantics\\\" by Bob Simco\",\"source\":\"Supplemental Material\"}]"],"Location":["[{\"url\":\"https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/22080570\",\"venue\":\"Hall Building Basement Theatre\",\"notes\":\"Location specified in printed announcement \\\"Georgantics\\\" by Bob Simco (Supplemental material)\",\"address\":\"1455, Boul de Maisonneuve Ouest, Montreal, Quebec, Canada\",\"latitude\":\"45.4972758\",\"longitude\":\"-73.57893043\"}]"],"Address":["1455, Boul de Maisonneuve Ouest, Montreal, Quebec, Canada"],"Venue":["Hall Building Basement Theatre"],"City":["Montreal, Quebec"],"content_notes":["Victor Coleman reads from One/eye/love (Coach House Press, 1967)."],"contents":["victor_coleman_i086.11-159.mp3\n\nWynne Francis\n00:00:00\nBy the way I must remember a most important announcement, there is to be no smoking in the theatre. You may smoke at intermission, but please do not smoke during the readings. Our first reader tonight is Mr. Victor Coleman [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q23882910] who comes to us from Toronto [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q172]. Mr. Coleman is the publisher of Island Magazine [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q15754909], and Is Magazine which is spelled 'i' 's' and looks like 'is' but is pronounced 'I’s', and he is also the publisher and editor of Island Press. He is a very active promoter of new Canadian poetry and he himself has published in several little magazines in Canada [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q16] and he has made translations from Erik Satie's [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q187192] notes to the music, he has also been published in New Wave Canada, an anthology of new Canadian poets published by Contact Press, and edited by Raymond Souster [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q304129]. He is also affiliated, his press, Island Press, is affiliated with the Coach House Press [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q5137585] in Toronto and through this press a book of his poems will be appearing this spring. He is our first reader and our second reader is Mr. George Bowering [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q1239280], who has already published three books, the first one by Contact Press called Points On The Grid, the second one, The Silver Wire published by Quarry Press and the third one, A Man in Yellow Boots, by El Corno Emplumado which was done bilingually in Spanish and in English and which contains montages and illustrations by poet and artist Roy Kiyooka [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q3445789]. Mr. Bowering is also editor of Imago Magazine, which emanated from Alberta [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q1951] and which is devoted to the long poem or the longer poem, he is expecting to publish very shortly, in the spring I believe, a novel called The Mirror on the Floor. Mr. Coleman will read first, and then there will be a short intermission, and then Mr. Bowering will read to you.\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:02:49\nI like to make it a habit always at a reading to start off with something that somebody else wrote, simply to show you that my concerns lie elsewhere, then in my own self. This is something from A History of America by an American writer by the name of Bill Hutton and it's— well, I won't explain it to you.\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:03:35\nReads unnamed poem by Bill Hutton.\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:06:00\nI'll read a few short poems first, and then go into something from a sequence, a longer sequence. This is a poem dedicated to Bill Hutton, the author of that piece I just read, it's called \"Buff Hello, 6\".\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:06:33\nReads \"Buff Hello, 6\".\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:08:27\nI'm going to focus on that clock every once in a while, simply because I want to keep track of myself. If I might say, um, it's interesting that I'm reading with George Bowering and my general tenure at this time, uh, which I'm not really that self-conscious about which is interesting to me to be growing a beard at this time and that the last time that I started to grow a beard was the first time that I met George Bowering and it was about two years ago and we were sitting up in my attic which was a room and I said to him, \"How do you like my beard?\" and he says that \"It makes you look like an impotent D.H. Lawrence [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q34970]”. [Audience laughter]. This is a poem called \"The Lady Vanishes\".\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:09:41\nReads \"The Lady Vanishes\".\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:11:14\nHere's a kind of poem that I can bug everybody with because it probably won't mean anything to you at all, but simply because it really is my occasion but rather than hide it away, um, I think that the sound of it is enough to carry to you, some measure of the poetry that I got from the occasion that I speak of. It's called \"For Basil Bunting\".\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:11:48\nReads \"For Basil Bunting\".\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:12:34\nI don't know whether any of you are familiar with a Japanese-English dictionary called Kenkyusha [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q6389422], if not, all I can tell you is that it's a Japanese-English dictionary and that it has a strange quality to be able to predict the future, by chance operations in that it's very fat and you open it and you're like the guy with the funny hat at the track who really shouldn't be there because he can only guess and he just opens the racing form and sticks his finger on the horse and he bets on the horse and he usually loses. Kenkyusha is a little better than that because you're not trying to win anything, you're looking for some kind of instruction and the time I wrote these poems I was rather desperate for some kind of instruction, and uh, it's just a matter of opening the book, pointing and getting the epigraph for each poem from the Japanese-English dictionary. I'll just read a couple. \"Day Seven\", oh there are given days, that are sort of daily devotions.\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:14:09\nReads \"Day Seven\".\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:14:33\nReads \"Day Eight\".\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:15:19\nReads \"Day Ten\".\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:16:18\nMany of these relate to certain experiences with LSD also.\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:16:29\nReads \"Day Thirteen\".\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:16:49\nThe reason that the definitions, the English definitions in this section are so interesting and not like the ones we are accustomed to is because the characters that they represent go through their own changes and it's almost an ideogrammatic dictionary rather than a dictionary of definitions.\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:17:13\nResumes reading “Day Thirteen”.\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:20:17\nI need to get one of those spider clocks, can't read in this light.\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:20:39\nReads \"Day Twenty-One\" .\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:22:36\nReads \"Day Twenty-Two\".\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:24:56\nReads \"Day Twenty-Four\".\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:28:22\nThese next poems are the poems that are closest to me now. It's another long sequence called \"Separations\" and I don't think I need to give you any background on it. I'll not read the whole thing because it's quite long.\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:28:56\nReads \"Separations” [parts 4-8, 10-12, and 14].\n \nVictor Coleman\n00:37:00\nThank you.\n \nEND\n00:37:17\n"],"Note":["[{\"note\":\"George Bowering is repeatedly mentioned on the tape and in printed announcements, but no supporting audio has been found. \",\"type\":\"General\"},{\"note\":\"Year-specific Information:\\n\\nOne/eye/love was published in 1967, and Coleman was working at Coach House Press.\\n\",\"type\":\"General\"},{\"note\":\"Local connections:\\n\\nVictor Coleman was very involved in the promotion of small presses and Canadian writers, specifically through his own presses and Coach House Press.

In 1954 he served in the Royal Canadian Air Force until 1957, when he pursued a Bachelor’s degree in 1960 and a Master’s degree in 1963 from the University of British Columbia. With fellow poets Frank Davey, David Dawson, James Reid, Fred Wah and critic Warren Tallman, he founded Tish in 1961, a poetry newsletter which had monumental reverberations across Canada. This magazine, influenced by styles of the Black Mountain Poets and of the East Coast poetry of Louis Dudek, Raymond Souster and Irving Layton, brought a “new wave” of poetry to Canada. Bowering’s first collection of poetry began with Sticks and Stones (Tishbooks, 1962) with a preface written by Robert Creeley, and was followed by Points on the grid (Contact Press, 1964) and Man in Yellow Boots (El Corno Emplumado, 1965). Bowering also founded the magazine Imago (1964-1974), which featured critical essays and poetry, and he also contributed to Open Letter as an editor. Bowering then moved eastwards, teaching at the University of Calgary from 1963-1966, enrolled in the Ph.D. program at the University of Western Ontario. A year later, Bowering accepted a position as the writer-in-residence in 1967 at Sir George Williams University (now Concordia University) in Montreal, becoming a lecturer in 1967-1971. Bowering joined the Sir George Williams University Poetry Reading Series Committee in the fall of 1967, which was being run by Roy Kiyooka, Stanton Hoffman and Howard Fink. In 1972 he left Montreal and began a long career teaching at Simon Fraser University in British Columbia. He has published over fifty books of poetry, prose, short stories, essays, reviews, plays as well as pieces that combine and defy genres. A selection of his publications are as follows: Genève (Coach House Press, 1971), Autobiology (New Star Books, 1972), Curious (Coach House Press, 1973), In the Flesh (McClelland & Stewart, 1974), Allophanes (Coach House Press, 1976), Burning Water (Beaufort Books, 1980), Caprice (Penguin Books, 1988),  Harry’s Fragments (Coach House Press, 1990), Rewriting my Grandfather (Nomados, 2005), Baseball Love (Talonbooks, 2006) and Shall I compare: July 2006 (George Bowering, 2008). Bowering published his interview with Black Mountain poet Robert Duncan: An Interview (Coach House Press, 1971), a book-length study on Canadian poet Al Purdy: Al Purdy (Copp Clark, 1970), along with editing several anthologies such as Vibrations: Poems from Youth (Cage, 1970), Fiction of Contemporary Canada (Coach House Press, 1980) and Likely Stories: A Postmodern Sampler (Coach House Press, 1992). Bowering has won two Governor General's Awards for poetry,  for Rocky Mountain Foot (McClelland & Stewart, 1968) and The Gangs Kosmos (House of Anansi, 1969), and one for fiction in 1980 for Burning Water (Beaufort Books, 1980). George Bowering continues teaching, inspiring and writing at Simon Fraser University in British Columbia.\",\"nation\":[],\"role\":[\"Author\",\"Performer\"]}]"],"contributors":["[{\"url\":\"\",\"name\":\"\",\"dates\":\"\",\"notes\":\"\",\"nation\":[],\"role\":[]}]"],"Performance_Date":[1974],"material_description":["[{\"side\":\"\",\"image\":\"Uploads/1301/I0006_11_0034_front-300x300.jpg\",\"other\":\"\",\"extent\":\"1/4 inch\",\"AV_types\":\"Audio\",\"tape_brand\":\"Scotch\",\"generations\":\"Master\",\"Conservation\":\"\",\"equalization\":\"\",\"playback_mode\":\"Mono\",\"playing_speed\":\"\",\"sound_quality\":\"Good\",\"recording_type\":\"Analogue\",\"storage_capacity\":\"\",\"physical_condition\":\"\",\"track_configuration\":\"\",\"material_designation\":\"Reel to Reel\",\"physical_composition\":\"Magnetic Tape\",\"accompanying_material\":\"\",\"other_physical_description\":\"\"}]"],"material_designations":["Reel to Reel"],"physical_compositions":["Magnetic Tape"],"recording_type":["Analogue"],"AV_type":["Audio"],"playback_mode":["Mono"],"Dates":["[{\"date\":\"1974 1 25\",\"type\":\"Performance Date\",\"notes\":\"Date written on the front of the tape's box\",\"source\":\"Accompanying Material\"}]"],"Location":["[{\"url\":\"https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/22080570\",\"venue\":\"Hall Building Room H-435\",\"notes\":\"Location specified in written announcement \\\"Bowering Back At SGWU\\\"\",\"address\":\"1455, Boul de Maisonneuve Ouest, Montreal, Quebec, Canada\",\"latitude\":\"45.4972758\",\"longitude\":\"-73.57893043\"}]"],"Address":["1455, Boul de Maisonneuve Ouest, Montreal, Quebec, Canada"],"Venue":["Hall Building Room H-435"],"City":["Montreal, Quebec"],"content_notes":["George Bowering reads from Autobiology (New Star Books, 1972) and Curious (Coach House Press, 1973), as well as a few poems from unknown sources."],"contents":["george_bowering_i006-11-034.mp3 \n\nIntroducer\n00:00:00\nAmbient Sound.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:01:54\nOh I just did a review of Al Purdy's [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q4704621] new book of poems so maybe I'll just start off reading that. [Audience laughter]. I said I liked it Al. [Audience laughter]. I'm related to practically everybody here. I'll turn this off now. [Audience laughter].\n \nIntroducer\n00:04:12\n...I think that George Bowering  [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q1239280] has read or done— or not done, or not written. On the back of [that book (?)], it says that he has two new books, one called Curious from Coach House Press [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q5137585], and another In the Flesh, coming out with McClelland and Stewart [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q6800322]. The one thing I can add to that is— has to do with baseball [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q5369], about which I know much less than George. You still have your team?\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:04:51\nYes.\n \nIntroducer\n00:04:54\nOkay, it's occurred to me that George understands one thing that is rather important to understand that is that the difference between stepping up to the plate and hitting the ball out of the park, and going [unintelligible], on the one hand, and on the other, stepping up to the plate and being there when the bat does what it's supposed to do and the ball takes itself out of the park. And this applies to baseball, and it also applies to poems. And that's what George understands.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:05:48\nFor those that live in California [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q99], that's what Suzuki Roshi [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q572599] calls Zen Baseball. I'm really excited to be back here, this is really a burn for me, because, can you hear me if I talk at this level? I'm hearing an echo, but I— can you hear me? [Audience laughter]. I'm reading for the next three weeks back and forth but this is the first one so I haven't got stale with any of this stuff yet in the east. And I'm going to come back in a few minutes to Autobiology, because I've never read it in the east although I started writing it in Montreal [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q340] and finished it in Vancouver [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q24639], but before I do I'm going to read a piece that is sort of representative of what I've been doing lately in Vancouver, called \"Desert Elm\", the desert being the Okanagan [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q1812222] in this instance and the elm being the kind of tree that people planted there that wasn't there before and grew— they tried a lot of other ones and they didn't work. And it's a poem about my father and it deals with— it was begun with his heart attack he had in August and what happened after that, to me.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:07:22\nReads \"Desert Elm\".\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:20:04\nThat's the longest one I'll read I think. I was going to go into Autobiology, but I'm just going to jump right now into one section of Curious, I'm going to read the Jack Spicer [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q3805658] part for Artie [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q4800979], and then I'll [unintelligible] Curious is a-—that's one of the books that's coming out this week, it's about, it's a book about poets, sort of, and this one's about Jack Spicer, who, Artie digs.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:20:43\nReads \"Jack Spicer\" from Curious.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:22:10\nHe was supposed to be moving— that was in the summer of '65, he was up in Vancouver and just decided to move up there so he wouldn't die, and because he would die if he stayed in San Francisco [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q62], and then he said, well just before that I'll go down to the San Francisco Poetry Festival, and when that's over in three weeks I'll come up to Vancouver, and he died during the second week. Okay, this is— Autobiology is a book  that came out, two years ago this month, actually, 72, yeah. And I started writing it in Westmount [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q139497] as they say and finished it in Kitsilano [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q4179275]. I started writing it in an expensive flat in Westmount, and finished it in a commune on the edge of the water in Vancouver and it's a story about, as it suggests, it's a story, it's a book, it's poetry, it's prose, it's something about things that have changed me in terms of my head but first in terms of chemicals and physiologically, changed my body literally and so on. So I'll just, I'll read portions of it. I toyed with the idea of reading the whole book, it's the sort of thing we do in Vancouver, like we sit down and read the whole book, and this was published the same day as Stan Persky's [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q2330087] The Day, a book called The Day, and it's the same length, about a hundred pages, and he read The Day and we took a break, and I read Autobiology and then we took a break of a couple of hours and he read The Day again. But that's sort of— that happens a little— it's a little easier to take when everybody is kind of a volunteer anyway, when everybody in the audience has known all the time that this was being written and that it was going to be read, the whole book. So I'll just read parts of it so you get a taste of it. Each section is about one and a quarter foolscap pages when it's handwritten, long, approximately so it turns out to be about two of these pages. \"Chapter One\"— there's forty-eight chapters. \"Chapter One: The Raspberries\".\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:24:41 \nReads \"Chapter One: The Raspberries\" from Autobiology.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:26:06 \nDid that ever happen to--I'm sure these kinds of things must have happened to--the way I was telling [unintelligible] this afternoon that the way this book is written was I knew the general frame was things that changed me that way, from things put in my body, generally, or pieces of my body taken off, or whatever. Or pieces of my body going out into someone else's body or whatever. And I'd go home in my house in Westmount, from here, and I'd say 'I got it! Today I'm going to do the broken tool part' and I'd run home and I'd start controlling the thing and I'd throw it away, so all the pieces that are in here are the pieces that are not thrown away, the ones where I didn't know what I was going to write when I started writing. I have the sense that I tried to describe that afternoon as being simply equal to what was coming in the story. This is \"Chapter 2\", I'll read \"Chapter 1\" and 2 and 3 and 4 and then I'll skip. This is \"The Teeter Totter\".\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:27:05\nReads \"Chapter 2: The Teeter Totter\" from Autobiology.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:28:22\nReads \"Chapter 3: The Pollywogs\" from Autobiology.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:29:31\n\"The Flying Dream\". This is the origin of why I decided to write poetry I think, or at least I've always made that connection. \"The Flying Dream\".\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:29:40\nReads \"Chapter 4: The Flying Dream\" from Autobiology.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:30:54\nIt's the basis of that West Coast [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q1974] elitism, Al. I— after I'd done this whole book I found out there's two chapters called \"The Breaks\", I'd totally forgotten that this chapter had written me this time. So this is the first chapter on “The Breaks”.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:31:15\nReads \"Chapter 8: The Breaks\" from Autobiology [audience laughter throughout].\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:32:34\nGee, there's one I've never read before, I mean, out loud [audience laughter]. I'm not going to anyway, heck with it. Oh, here's one that every once in a while there's, it comes to, the thing comes to writing itself or talking about the writing of itself, so here's one called \"Composition\", for those that are worried about the problem it'll be totally clear. I think. It defines composition. \"Composition\".\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:33:02\nReads \"Chapter 14: Composition\" from Autobiology.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:34:32\nHere's the other one called \"The Breaks\".\n \nGeorge Bowering \n00:34:35.49\nReads \"Chapter 20: The Breaks\" from Autobiology.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:35:53\nReads [“Chapter 21: Come’ from Autobiology].\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:37:13\nThis is one that, this is a favourite amongst the [serifs (?)] in Vancouver. The— I live in a community now as different from the community I lived in a couple of years ago of all https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q5882404], Esalen [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q5882404], encounters all the time and they're always talking about shrinkage and they're always telling me why don't you take shrinkage, and I say 'I don't feel like I need shrinkage' and they said 'that proves you need shrinkage'. Can't get out of it, you know, that's your problem— you don't think you need... So this one is sort of a reply to that, it's called \"The Childhood\".\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:37:56\nReads \"Chapter 26: The Childhood\" from Autobiology.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:39:05\nThis one's about the literary world, it's called \"St. Louis\", where, St. Louis is where William Burroughs [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q38022] and an earlier poet came from. T.S. Sandburn [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q37767], I think his name was. [audience laughter.]\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:39:21\nReads \"Chapter 27: St. Louis\" from Autobiology.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:40:49\nThen there's a whole series of pieces on towns that I lived in which I'll skip over. Skip that one, skip that one, get to these ones at the end. Here's one called \"The Flesh\", which I guess was involved with at the time, writing a book of poems about the flesh.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:41:23\nReads \"Chapter 43: The Flesh\" from Autobiology.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:42:43\nI think I'll read the last couple in this one, and then see what time it is. \"The Operations\" everybody is my chance, right? Every vessel, living in a house with my mother talking about operations the last couple of weeks and she couldn't really do it. So I get my chance now, ‘cause I don't really get the chance— that's my mother on the cover of the book by the way, that's my mother and that's me. There she is.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:43:14\nReads \"Chapter 45: The Operations\" from Autobiology.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:44:53\nAnd the last two, this is \"The Scars\".\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:44:56\nReads \"Chapter 47: The Scars\" from Autobiology.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:46:24\nAnd the last one is called naturally, \"The Body\", Chapter 48.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:46:32\nReads \"Chapter 48: The Body\" from Autobiology.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:47:48\nThat was Autobiology, it's actually, can you imagine, a tetralogy. And the first volume was called Geneve and it was based on a found thing with the tarot pack [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q583269] and with the Geneva version of the French pack, Marseilles pack. The second one was Autobiology and the third one was Curious and the fourth one is— Dwight Gardiner wrote it, in a book called the Book of the Occasional. I was going to write it but he wrote it, so I didn't have to. It's just absolutely beautiful and if you see a Book of the Occasional, you'll see what I mean. It's just a gorgeous, gorgeous book. Oh, gee, I'd love to read— how long can I have now?\n \nUnknown\n00:48:45\n[Cut or edit made in tape].\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:48:46\n...Because I just suddenly remembered I'd love to read a piece I have called The Big Leagues. But then I also have a book called At War with the U.S. that I— was the first book of poems I've written in years, but maybe I'll just read The Big Leagues, that will probably take— and then maybe I'll read one or two pieces from Curious. This is a book—a thing called The Big Leagues and it's in a few- in five sections and maybe I'll get tired before I get to the fifth one, but I'll just see how— the first one is called \"The Detroit Tigers\" [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q650855].\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:49:21\nReads \"The Detroit Tigers\".\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:51:57\nThat was written in South Slocan, B.C. [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q18379776] I think this is my favourite one, it's called \"The Dallas Cowboys\" [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q204862].\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:52:09\nReads \"The Dallas Cowboys\".\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:54:57\nThe next one's called \"The San Diego Padres\" [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q721134] but I'm going to skip that one because it's about getting dope [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q60168] into— what happens is that Chance is coming back, he's now wearing the uniform that Slim Chance had before he died, a U.S. Army uniform that says \"Chance\" on it and \"U.S. Army\" and they're sneaking some dope into San Diego and it has to do with some Padres whose clothes are taken off so they can use them to hide the dope and everything. The next one's called \"The Buffalo Sabres\" [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q131206].\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:55:32\nBegins reading \"The Buffalo Sabres\". \n\nGeorge Bowering\n00:55:37\nOh, by the way what happens is that I took four quotations from poetry, and three of them are taken from the normal Ohio academic American Poetry Anthology and one of them is taken from Robert Creeley [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q918620] at the end, and you can tell. I can't even remember what poets I took from, like all those guys sorta have the same thing, you know, Donald Hall [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q976924] Anthology Poets if you know what I mean.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:56:05\nResumes reading \"The Buffalo Sabres\".\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:59:06\nAnd this one is for a lot of friends of mine, it's called \"The Minnesota Twins\" [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q604879] and he's going on, he's leaving Buffalo [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q40435] and going to— has anyone here been to— has anyone here been to Bemidji, Minnesota [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q730430]? You know what they got there right? That great big, blue Ox and the great big Paul Bunyan [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q7149597] carved about 30 feet high or something like that. And other than that, it's a beautiful town, you know, it has the— it looks like the underground of another town turn upside-down, so the bottom is up above the ground, right? \"The Minnesota Twins\".\n \nAnnotation\n00:59:39\nReads \"The Minnesota Twins\".\n \nGeorge Bowering\n01:02:26\nI think I'll read like for ten minutes and that'll be for a total of an hour, five minutes or something like that. I'll just, I'll pick, this is Curious, which is a— that other book's coming out, it's called In the Flesh and it's maybe the last book of occasional, magazine book verse poetry I ever do. It deals with the experience of being in your 30s and finding out that the world isn't round after all and how sad you can be and how strong emotions can be. It has an introduction called \"I Never Felt Such Love\". But it's mainly lyric poetry, and I just, I've read so much of that that it's got to be too easy to read and write and everything. So I'll read a few of these. The poets who are mentioned in Curious, it happens that there are a lot of my friends who aren't in the book. Because, again, I wrote it that way, if you know, if that person did not come up, excuse me, from the other side of the page or however that feeling is to be described, if the voice wasn't there or something, for instance I really wanted to do a Roy Kiyooka [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q3445789] poem, and you know, I just couldn't and it didn't come and I had wanted to but if I had tried that it just would have been screwed up. Some of these are American, some are Canadians, a couple are English and maybe one or two other things. And the first one is, naturally, Charles Olson [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q922978]. Olson, as you probably know, was about 6 ft 10 and weighed about 300 pounds. And I first met him— I was standing at the bottom of a flight of stairs and he was coming down them. So I said 'hello' to the knees of his sear-sucker suit.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n01:04:19\nReads \"Charles Olson\" from Curious.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n01:05:57\nI'll get some Canadians in here. Margaret Atwood [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q183492], she's the first Canadian to appear in here.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n01:06:16\nReads \"Margaret Atwood\" from Curious.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n01:07:36\nThere are some poets in here that you won't know that are more specifically Vancouver-oriented poets perhaps that aren't as well known out here so I'll skip those. This is \"bp Nichol\". Everybody knows bpNichol [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q4953105], or everybody is bpNichol.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n01:07:57\nReads \"bp Nichol\" from Curious.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n01:09:40\n\"Stephen Spender\" [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q448764]. I was going to skip this one, but it has a few moments in it.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n01:09:53\nReads \"Stephen Spender\" from Curious.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n01:11:18\nThat's, boy, that's— like you're out on the West Coast where you've never seen a poet before in your life and the first one they bring you is this guy you've been reading in books and he's a white-haired— it's unbelievable. You know, John Newlove's [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q6250356]? John Newlove, for those who know John Newlove.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n01:11:36\nReads \"John Newlove\" from Curious.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n01:13:08\nThat last part is from a title of one of his books. David McFadden [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q5237344] is, this is the David McFadden piece and maybe I'll read it and a couple more. It's not my favourite but it's one that I like reading. David McFadden— well, it tells you what he's like, but David McFadden is a— he scared the hell out of Allen Ginsberg [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q6711] because he writes really funny poems, like he literally has things, like he walks out into the backyard and sees the Archangel Gabriel [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q81989] or a space man and just talks to it and talks about it in the story of the poem a paragraph after he's talked about going out and buying some cigarettes or something like that and Ginsberg thought, wow, what a weird spaced out guy, so Victor Coleman [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q23882910] took him down to Hamilton [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q133116] to see David, David— he's got, as he said in the note of one of his books, \"I was born in 1940 and I comb my hair straight back\", and in his house, he's got an electric pendulum clock and you know that sort of thing. And Ginsberg took one look and said [inaudible ‘scared’ sound], and ran away. Just couldn't believe it, you know, it's unbelievable. So, David McFadden.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n01:14:30\nReads \"David McFadden\" from Curious.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n01:16:24\nThere wasn't a comma in there, that was the Indian food coming back. Now let's see…\n\nAudience Member 1\n01:16:31\nAddresses George Bowering [unintelligible; requests poem].\n\nGeorge Bowering\n01:16:33\nNo, he didn't get in there either, and I'm very sad about that, just people that got in that I wish didn't get in and there's people that didn't get in that I wish did get in. \n\nAudience Member 2\n01:16:44\n[Unintelligible]...Raymond Souster [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q304129].\n\nGeorge Bowering\n01:16:46\nYeah, I think I might have skipped over Raymond Souster, the Raymond Souster one is, as you might imagine the shortest one in the book.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n01:16:58\nReads \"Raymond Souster\" from Curious.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n01:17:59\nI got a Purdy one too, but Al weighs 210 pounds. No, I've always made it a policy not to read the ones of somebody that's there. I don't know if there are any other ones that I'm going to read.\n\nAudience Member 3\n01:18:25\nAddresses George Bowering [unintelligible; requests poem].\n\nGeorge Bowering\n01:18:26\nYeah, I don't know where the hell it is. I like the Lionel Kearns [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q6555690] one actually...Oh I don't know what's happened to the Lionel Kearns one, it's one of my very favourites too. I think maybe, I'll see if I can find the Lionel one in a second then I'll read it and I'll finish off with the bill bissett [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q4911496] one. If I just had the book with me it'd be a hell of a lot easier. I don't think I'm going to find the Kearns one. I can't find the Kearns one, it's all about how he can't find anything. This is the bissett one and then I'll finish off with that.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n01:19:30\nReads bill bissett\" from Curious.\n\nGeorge Bowering\n01:21:16\nThank you.\n\nAudience\n01:21:17\nApplause. \n\nEND\n01:21:29\n"],"Note":["[{\"note\":\"Year-specific Information:\\n\\nIn 1974, George Bowering had published At War with the U.S. (Talonbooks, 1974), Flycatcher & Other Stories (Oberon, 1974), In the Flesh (McClelland & Stewart, 1974) and the last issue of Imago: 20 (Talonbooks, 1974) and was teaching at Simon Fraser University.\",\"type\":\"General\"},{\"note\":\"Local connections:\\n\\nGeorge Bowering was very influential in promoting and enriching the Vancouver poetry scene in the early 1960s, through his magazines Tish and Imago as well as the hundreds of connections he made with other poets.

[Audience laughter]. I said I liked it Al. [Audience laughter]. I'm related to practically everybody here. I'll turn this off now. [Audience laughter].\\n \\nIntroducer\\n00:04:12\\n...I think that George Bowering  [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q1239280] has read or done— or not done, or not written. On the back of [that book (?)], it says that he has two new books, one called Curious from Coach House Press [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q5137585], and another In the Flesh, coming out with McClelland and Stewart [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q6800322]. The one thing I can add to that is— has to do with baseball [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q5369], about which I know much less than George. You still have your team?\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:04:51\\nYes.\\n \\nIntroducer\\n00:04:54\\nOkay, it's occurred to me that George understands one thing that is rather important to understand that is that the difference between stepping up to the plate and hitting the ball out of the park, and going [unintelligible], on the one hand, and on the other, stepping up to the plate and being there when the bat does what it's supposed to do and the ball takes itself out of the park. And this applies to baseball, and it also applies to poems. And that's what George understands.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:05:48\\nFor those that live in California [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q99], that's what Suzuki Roshi [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q572599] calls Zen Baseball. I'm really excited to be back here, this is really a burn for me, because, can you hear me if I talk at this level? I'm hearing an echo, but I— can you hear me? [Audience laughter]. I'm reading for the next three weeks back and forth but this is the first one so I haven't got stale with any of this stuff yet in the east. And I'm going to come back in a few minutes to Autobiology, because I've never read it in the east although I started writing it in Montreal [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q340] and finished it in Vancouver [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q24639], but before I do I'm going to read a piece that is sort of representative of what I've been doing lately in Vancouver, called \\\"Desert Elm\\\", the desert being the Okanagan [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q1812222] in this instance and the elm being the kind of tree that people planted there that wasn't there before and grew— they tried a lot of other ones and they didn't work. And it's a poem about my father and it deals with— it was begun with his heart attack he had in August and what happened after that, to me.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:07:22\\nReads \\\"Desert Elm\\\".\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:20:04\\nThat's the longest one I'll read I think. I was going to go into Autobiology, but I'm just going to jump right now into one section of Curious, I'm going to read the Jack Spicer [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q3805658] part for Artie [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q4800979], and then I'll [unintelligible] Curious is a-—that's one of the books that's coming out this week, it's about, it's a book about poets, sort of, and this one's about Jack Spicer, who, Artie digs.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:20:43\\nReads \\\"Jack Spicer\\\" from Curious.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:22:10\\nHe was supposed to be moving— that was in the summer of '65, he was up in Vancouver and just decided to move up there so he wouldn't die, and because he would die if he stayed in San Francisco [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q62], and then he said, well just before that I'll go down to the San Francisco Poetry Festival, and when that's over in three weeks I'll come up to Vancouver, and he died during the second week. Okay, this is— Autobiology is a book  that came out, two years ago this month, actually, 72, yeah. And I started writing it in Westmount [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q139497] as they say and finished it in Kitsilano [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q4179275]. I started writing it in an expensive flat in Westmount, and finished it in a commune on the edge of the water in Vancouver and it's a story about, as it suggests, it's a story, it's a book, it's poetry, it's prose, it's something about things that have changed me in terms of my head but first in terms of chemicals and physiologically, changed my body literally and so on. So I'll just, I'll read portions of it. I toyed with the idea of reading the whole book, it's the sort of thing we do in Vancouver, like we sit down and read the whole book, and this was published the same day as Stan Persky's [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q2330087] The Day, a book called The Day, and it's the same length, about a hundred pages, and he read The Day and we took a break, and I read Autobiology and then we took a break of a couple of hours and he read The Day again. But that's sort of— that happens a little— it's a little easier to take when everybody is kind of a volunteer anyway, when everybody in the audience has known all the time that this was being written and that it was going to be read, the whole book. So I'll just read parts of it so you get a taste of it. Each section is about one and a quarter foolscap pages when it's handwritten, long, approximately so it turns out to be about two of these pages. \\\"Chapter One\\\"— there's forty-eight chapters. \\\"Chapter One: The Raspberries\\\".\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:24:41 \\nReads \\\"Chapter One: The Raspberries\\\" from Autobiology.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:26:06 \\nDid that ever happen to--I'm sure these kinds of things must have happened to--the way I was telling [unintelligible] this afternoon that the way this book is written was I knew the general frame was things that changed me that way, from things put in my body, generally, or pieces of my body taken off, or whatever. Or pieces of my body going out into someone else's body or whatever. And I'd go home in my house in Westmount, from here, and I'd say 'I got it! Today I'm going to do the broken tool part' and I'd run home and I'd start controlling the thing and I'd throw it away, so all the pieces that are in here are the pieces that are not thrown away, the ones where I didn't know what I was going to write when I started writing. I have the sense that I tried to describe that afternoon as being simply equal to what was coming in the story. This is \\\"Chapter 2\\\", I'll read \\\"Chapter 1\\\" and 2 and 3 and 4 and then I'll skip. This is \\\"The Teeter Totter\\\".\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:27:05\\nReads \\\"Chapter 2: The Teeter Totter\\\" from Autobiology.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:28:22\\nReads \\\"Chapter 3: The Pollywogs\\\" from Autobiology.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:29:31\\n\\\"The Flying Dream\\\". This is the origin of why I decided to write poetry I think, or at least I've always made that connection. \\\"The Flying Dream\\\".\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:29:40\\nReads \\\"Chapter 4: The Flying Dream\\\" from Autobiology.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:30:54\\nIt's the basis of that West Coast [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q1974] elitism, Al. I— after I'd done this whole book I found out there's two chapters called \\\"The Breaks\\\", I'd totally forgotten that this chapter had written me this time. So this is the first chapter on “The Breaks”.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:31:15\\nReads \\\"Chapter 8: The Breaks\\\" from Autobiology [audience laughter throughout].\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:32:34\\nGee, there's one I've never read before, I mean, out loud [audience laughter]. I'm not going to anyway, heck with it. Oh, here's one that every once in a while there's, it comes to, the thing comes to writing itself or talking about the writing of itself, so here's one called \\\"Composition\\\", for those that are worried about the problem it'll be totally clear. I think. It defines composition. \\\"Composition\\\".\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:33:02\\nReads \\\"Chapter 14: Composition\\\" from Autobiology.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:34:32\\nHere's the other one called \\\"The Breaks\\\".\\n \\nGeorge Bowering \\n00:34:35.49\\nReads \\\"Chapter 20: The Breaks\\\" from Autobiology.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:35:53\\nReads [“Chapter 21: Come’ from Autobiology].\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:37:13\\nThis is one that, this is a favourite amongst the [serifs (?)] in Vancouver. The— I live in a community now as different from the community I lived in a couple of years ago of all https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q5882404], Esalen [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q5882404], encounters all the time and they're always talking about shrinkage and they're always telling me why don't you take shrinkage, and I say 'I don't feel like I need shrinkage' and they said 'that proves you need shrinkage'. Can't get out of it, you know, that's your problem— you don't think you need... So this one is sort of a reply to that, it's called \\\"The Childhood\\\".\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:37:56\\nReads \\\"Chapter 26: The Childhood\\\" from Autobiology.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:39:05\\nThis one's about the literary world, it's called \\\"St. Louis\\\", where, St. Louis is where William Burroughs [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q38022] and an earlier poet came from. T.S. Sandburn [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q37767], I think his name was. [audience laughter.]\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:39:21\\nReads \\\"Chapter 27: St. Louis\\\" from Autobiology.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:40:49\\nThen there's a whole series of pieces on towns that I lived in which I'll skip over. Skip that one, skip that one, get to these ones at the end. Here's one called \\\"The Flesh\\\", which I guess was involved with at the time, writing a book of poems about the flesh.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:41:23\\nReads \\\"Chapter 43: The Flesh\\\" from Autobiology.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:42:43\\nI think I'll read the last couple in this one, and then see what time it is. \\\"The Operations\\\" everybody is my chance, right? Every vessel, living in a house with my mother talking about operations the last couple of weeks and she couldn't really do it. So I get my chance now, ‘cause I don't really get the chance— that's my mother on the cover of the book by the way, that's my mother and that's me. There she is.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:43:14\\nReads \\\"Chapter 45: The Operations\\\" from Autobiology.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:44:53\\nAnd the last two, this is \\\"The Scars\\\".\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:44:56\\nReads \\\"Chapter 47: The Scars\\\" from Autobiology.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:46:24\\nAnd the last one is called naturally, \\\"The Body\\\", Chapter 48.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:46:32\\nReads \\\"Chapter 48: The Body\\\" from Autobiology.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:47:48\\nThat was Autobiology, it's actually, can you imagine, a tetralogy. And the first volume was called Geneve and it was based on a found thing with the tarot pack [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q583269] and with the Geneva version of the French pack, Marseilles pack. The second one was Autobiology and the third one was Curious and the fourth one is— Dwight Gardiner wrote it, in a book called the Book of the Occasional. I was going to write it but he wrote it, so I didn't have to. It's just absolutely beautiful and if you see a Book of the Occasional, you'll see what I mean. It's just a gorgeous, gorgeous book. Oh, gee, I'd love to read— how long can I have now?\\n \\nUnknown\\n00:48:45\\n[Cut or edit made in tape].\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:48:46\\n...Because I just suddenly remembered I'd love to read a piece I have called The Big Leagues. But then I also have a book called At War with the U.S. that I— was the first book of poems I've written in years, but maybe I'll just read The Big Leagues, that will probably take— and then maybe I'll read one or two pieces from Curious. This is a book—a thing called The Big Leagues and it's in a few- in five sections and maybe I'll get tired before I get to the fifth one, but I'll just see how— the first one is called \\\"The Detroit Tigers\\\" [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q650855].\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:49:21\\nReads \\\"The Detroit Tigers\\\".\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:51:57\\nThat was written in South Slocan, B.C. [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q18379776] I think this is my favourite one, it's called \\\"The Dallas Cowboys\\\" [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q204862].\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:52:09\\nReads \\\"The Dallas Cowboys\\\".\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:54:57\\nThe next one's called \\\"The San Diego Padres\\\" [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q721134] but I'm going to skip that one because it's about getting dope [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q60168] into— what happens is that Chance is coming back, he's now wearing the uniform that Slim Chance had before he died, a U.S. Army uniform that says \\\"Chance\\\" on it and \\\"U.S. Army\\\" and they're sneaking some dope into San Diego and it has to do with some Padres whose clothes are taken off so they can use them to hide the dope and everything. The next one's called \\\"The Buffalo Sabres\\\" [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q131206].\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:55:32\\nBegins reading \\\"The Buffalo Sabres\\\". \\n\\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:55:37\\nOh, by the way what happens is that I took four quotations from poetry, and three of them are taken from the normal Ohio academic American Poetry Anthology and one of them is taken from Robert Creeley [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q918620] at the end, and you can tell. I can't even remember what poets I took from, like all those guys sorta have the same thing, you know, Donald Hall [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q976924] Anthology Poets if you know what I mean.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:56:05\\nResumes reading \\\"The Buffalo Sabres\\\".\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:59:06\\nAnd this one is for a lot of friends of mine, it's called \\\"The Minnesota Twins\\\" [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q604879] and he's going on, he's leaving Buffalo [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q40435] and going to— has anyone here been to— has anyone here been to Bemidji, Minnesota [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q730430]? You know what they got there right? That great big, blue Ox and the great big Paul Bunyan [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q7149597] carved about 30 feet high or something like that. And other than that, it's a beautiful town, you know, it has the— it looks like the underground of another town turn upside-down, so the bottom is up above the ground, right? \\\"The Minnesota Twins\\\".\\n \\nAnnotation\\n00:59:39\\nReads \\\"The Minnesota Twins\\\".\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n01:02:26\\nI think I'll read like for ten minutes and that'll be for a total of an hour, five minutes or something like that. I'll just, I'll pick, this is Curious, which is a— that other book's coming out, it's called In the Flesh and it's maybe the last book of occasional, magazine book verse poetry I ever do. It deals with the experience of being in your 30s and finding out that the world isn't round after all and how sad you can be and how strong emotions can be. It has an introduction called \\\"I Never Felt Such Love\\\". But it's mainly lyric poetry, and I just, I've read so much of that that it's got to be too easy to read and write and everything. So I'll read a few of these. The poets who are mentioned in Curious, it happens that there are a lot of my friends who aren't in the book. Because, again, I wrote it that way, if you know, if that person did not come up, excuse me, from the other side of the page or however that feeling is to be described, if the voice wasn't there or something, for instance I really wanted to do a Roy Kiyooka [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q3445789] poem, and you know, I just couldn't and it didn't come and I had wanted to but if I had tried that it just would have been screwed up. Some of these are American, some are Canadians, a couple are English and maybe one or two other things. And the first one is, naturally, Charles Olson [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q922978]. Olson, as you probably know, was about 6 ft 10 and weighed about 300 pounds. And I first met him— I was standing at the bottom of a flight of stairs and he was coming down them. So I said 'hello' to the knees of his sear-sucker suit.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n01:04:19\\nReads \\\"Charles Olson\\\" from Curious.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n01:05:57\\nI'll get some Canadians in here. Margaret Atwood [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q183492], she's the first Canadian to appear in here.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n01:06:16\\nReads \\\"Margaret Atwood\\\" from Curious.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n01:07:36\\nThere are some poets in here that you won't know that are more specifically Vancouver-oriented poets perhaps that aren't as well known out here so I'll skip those. This is \\\"bp Nichol\\\". Everybody knows bpNichol [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q4953105], or everybody is bpNichol.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n01:07:57\\nReads \\\"bp Nichol\\\" from Curious.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n01:09:40\\n\\\"Stephen Spender\\\" [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q448764]. I was going to skip this one, but it has a few moments in it.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n01:09:53\\nReads \\\"Stephen Spender\\\" from Curious.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n01:11:18\\nThat's, boy, that's— like you're out on the West Coast where you've never seen a poet before in your life and the first one they bring you is this guy you've been reading in books and he's a white-haired— it's unbelievable. You know, John Newlove's [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q6250356]?

In 1954 he served in the Royal Canadian Air Force until 1957, when he pursued a Bachelor’s degree in 1960 and a Master’s degree in 1963 from the University of British Columbia. With fellow poets Frank Davey, David Dawson, James Reid, Fred Wah and critic Warren Tallman, he founded Tish in 1961, a poetry newsletter which had monumental reverberations across Canada. This magazine, influenced by styles of the Black Mountain Poets and of the East Coast poetry of Louis Dudek, Raymond Souster and Irving Layton, brought a “new wave” of poetry to Canada. Bowering’s first collection of poetry began with Sticks and Stones (Tishbooks, 1962) with a preface written by Robert Creeley, and was followed by Points on the Grid (Contact Press, 1964) and Man in Yellow Boots (El Corno Emplumado, 1965). Bowering also founded the magazine Imago (1964-1974), which featured critical essays and poetry, and he also contributed to Open Letter as an editor. Bowering then moved eastwards, teaching at the University of Calgary from 1963-1966, enrolled in the Ph.D. program at the University of Western Ontario. A year later, Bowering accepted a position as the writer-in-residence in 1967 at Sir George Williams University (now Concordia University) in Montreal, becoming a lecturer in 1967-1971. Bowering joined the Sir George Williams University Poetry Reading Series Committee in the fall of 1967, which was being run by Roy Kiyooka, Stanton Hoffman and Howard Fink. In 1972 he left Montreal and began a long career teaching at Simon Fraser University in British Columbia. He has published over fifty books of poetry, prose, short stories, essays, reviews, plays as well as pieces that combine and defy genres. A selection of his publications are as follows: Genève (Coach House Press, 1971), Autobiology (New Star Books, 1972), Curious (Coach House Press, 1973), In the Flesh (McClelland & Stewart, 1974), Allophanes (Coach House Press, 1976), Burning Water (Beaufort Books, 1980), Caprice (Penguin Books, 1988), Harry’s Fragments (Coach House Press, 1990), Rewriting my Grandfather (Nomados, 2005), Baseball Love (Talonbooks, 2006) and Shall I Compare: July 2006 (George Bowering, 2008). Bowering published his interview with Black Mountain poet Robert Duncan: An Interview, (Coach House Press, 1971), a book-length study on Canadian poet Al Purdy: Al Purdy (Copp Clark, 1970) along with editing several anthologies such as Vibrations: Poems from Youth (Cage, 1970), Fiction of Contemporary Canada (Coach House Press, 1980) and Likely Stories: A Postmodern Sampler (Coach House Oress, 1992). Bowering has won two Governor General Awards, for poetry in 1969 for Rocky Mountain Foot (McClelland & Stewart, 1968) and The Gangs Kosmos (Anasi, 1969); one for fiction in 1980 for Burning Water (Beaufort Books, 1980).

The first poem I'll read is the one called \"Trail\" [feedback sounds].\n\nGeorge Bowering\n00:00:49\nReads \"Trail\" from Points on the Grid.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:01:36\n\"Locus Solus\".\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:01:40\nReads \"Locus Solus\" from Points on the Grid.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:02:42\nI might mention that the difference between this book and the other one is that more often you'll see on the page in this book that I've been working out certain ideas about poetics [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q835023], certain ideas about syntax [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q37437], ideas about how to get the page down on the poem, all the things the Tish poets [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q2384384] were working out in the early 1960s. As an example, the poem, \"Walking Poem\".\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:03:14\nReads \"Walking Poem\" from Points on the Grid.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:04:22\nI might mention, according to our poetics, or according to my poetics in that poem you'll see things operating such as a rhyme between the word 'shadow' and the word 'bashful'. \"Family\".\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:04:39\nReads \"Family\" from Points on the Grid.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:05:33\nThe following is the poem that I think is the best in the book, and that I think most people whom I've talked to agree this is the best poem in the book. \"Grandfather\".\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:05:47\nReads \"Grandfather\" from Points on the Grid.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:07:25\n\"For A.\".\n \nAnnotation\n00:07:28\nReads \"For A.\" from Points on the Grid.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:07:49\nOne thing that separates Western Canada [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q1145847] from Eastern Canada [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q795077] is the Spanish names of Western Canada and the Spaniards [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q160894] left their names all the way up the coast, not only in California and Oregon. This poem, set partly in Vancouver [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q24639] and partly on the rest of the B.C. coast is called \"Spanish B.C.\".\n\nGeorge Bowering\n00:08:11\nReads \"Spanish B.C\" from Points on the Grid.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:10:34\nI suppose I'd better read the title poem, \"Points on the Grid\".\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:10:42\nReads \"Points on the Grid\" from Points on the Grid.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:12:10\nI might mention, just for the record, that many of the things that I learned and tried to practice in that first book, I learned originally from poets such as Robert Duncan [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q964391], Robert Creeley [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q918620], Charles Olson [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q922978], all of whom visited Vancouver and helped the young poets in Vancouver out, very much, in learning about poetry. Now I plan to read from The Man in Yellow Boots, published this year, 1965, and in this book, I tend to move away from experimentation [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q1384425], although I still retain many of the things that I tried to work out in the first book. In this book one of the things that I often do is turn to more social issues. First though, let me read the love poem that begins the book, this poem called \"To Cleave\".\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:13:14\nReads \"To Cleave\" from The Man in Yellow Boots.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:13:43\nThis book is a bilingual book, unfortunately not with French [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q150], but with Spanish [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q1321] and just this once I'm going to see if I can read the Spanish version of the poem I just read. Spanish is called \"Penetrar\".\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:13:58\nReads \"Penetrar\" from The Man in Yellow Boots in Spanish.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:14:39\nIncidentally as a poetic note, some of that scratching and scrabbling noise in the background is my two small dogs beating each other up. This poem called \"Moon Shadow\".\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:14:54\nReads \"Moon Shadow\" from The Man in Yellow Boots.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:16:03\nThis then, is the other side of my poetry, this poem called \"Vox Crapulous\".\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:16:09\nReads \"Vox Crapulous\" from The Man in Yellow Boots.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:17:31\nFurther in that vein, this poem’s written October 16, 1964: a momentous day. This poem is called \"The Day Before the Chinese A-Bomb\".\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:17:46.49\nReads \"The Day Before the Chinese A-Bomb\" from The Man in Yellow Boots.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:18:29\nThis a longer poem, I think one of the two best poems in the book the other one being \"The Descent\", this poem's called \"For WCW\"\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:18:39\nReads \"For WCW\" from The Man in Yellow Boots.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:21:16\nThis poem, written during our visit to Mexico [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q96] in 1964, called \"Esta Muy Caliente\" and the reason it's not called \"Hace Mucho Calor\" is because of something inherent in the Spanish language that those that know will understand.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:21:35\nReads \"Esta Muy Caliente\" from The Man in Yellow Boots.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:23:09\nI think the following is the best poem in this book, it's called \"The Descent\", the title taken from a William Carlos Williams [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q178106] poem of course.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:23:18.83\nReads \"The Descent\" from The Man in Yellow Boots.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:29:09\nAnd the last poem in the book, \"Breaking Up, Breaking Out\".\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:29:14\nReads \"Breaking Up, Breaking Out\" from The Man in Yellow Boots.\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:30:03\nNow, some newer poems, while there's time. This newest one called \"The Oil\", written after a drive to Edmonton [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q2096] and back from Calgary [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q36312].\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:30:14\nReads \"The Oil\" [published later in Rocky Mountain Foot: a lyric, a memoir].\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:32:03\nHere's a short poem called \"I Saw\".\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:32:07\nReads \"I Saw\".\n \nGeorge Bowering\n00:32:20\nOkay, when I've just about come to the end of this side of the tape and I don't think I'll use the other side so that you can use it for somebody else, and once again I'm terribly sorry for being so late with this tape, and also if that does seem a loss, I'm sorry for not saying more things about poetry, I've been doing that less and less the further and further I've been getting away from Vancouver.

As an example, the poem, \\\"Walking Poem\\\".\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:03:14\\nReads \\\"Walking Poem\\\" from Points on the Grid.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:04:22\\nI might mention, according to our poetics, or according to my poetics in that poem you'll see things operating such as a rhyme between the word 'shadow' and the word 'bashful'. \\\"Family\\\".\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:04:39\\nReads \\\"Family\\\" from Points on the Grid.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:05:33\\nThe following is the poem that I think is the best in the book, and that I think most people whom I've talked to agree this is the best poem in the book. \\\"Grandfather\\\".\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:05:47\\nReads \\\"Grandfather\\\" from Points on the Grid.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:07:25\\n\\\"For A.\\\".\\n \\nAnnotation\\n00:07:28\\nReads \\\"For A.\\\" from Points on the Grid.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:07:49\\nOne thing that separates Western Canada [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q1145847] from Eastern Canada [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q795077] is the Spanish names of Western Canada and the Spaniards [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q160894] left their names all the way up the coast, not only in California and Oregon. This poem, set partly in Vancouver [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q24639] and partly on the rest of the B.C. coast is called \\\"Spanish B.C.\\\".\\n\\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:08:11\\nReads \\\"Spanish B.C\\\" from Points on the Grid.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:10:34\\nI suppose I'd better read the title poem, \\\"Points on the Grid\\\".\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:10:42\\nReads \\\"Points on the Grid\\\" from Points on the Grid.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:12:10\\nI might mention, just for the record, that many of the things that I learned and tried to practice in that first book, I learned originally from poets such as Robert Duncan [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q964391], Robert Creeley [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q918620], Charles Olson [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q922978], all of whom visited Vancouver and helped the young poets in Vancouver out, very much, in learning about poetry. Now I plan to read from The Man in Yellow Boots, published this year, 1965, and in this book, I tend to move away from experimentation [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q1384425], although I still retain many of the things that I tried to work out in the first book. In this book one of the things that I often do is turn to more social issues. First though, let me read the love poem that begins the book, this poem called \\\"To Cleave\\\".\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:13:14\\nReads \\\"To Cleave\\\" from The Man in Yellow Boots.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:13:43\\nThis book is a bilingual book, unfortunately not with French [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q150], but with Spanish [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q1321] and just this once I'm going to see if I can read the Spanish version of the poem I just read. Spanish is called \\\"Penetrar\\\".\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:13:58\\nReads \\\"Penetrar\\\" from The Man in Yellow Boots in Spanish.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:14:39\\nIncidentally as a poetic note, some of that scratching and scrabbling noise in the background is my two small dogs beating each other up. This poem called \\\"Moon Shadow\\\".\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:14:54\\nReads \\\"Moon Shadow\\\" from The Man in Yellow Boots.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:16:03\\nThis then, is the other side of my poetry, this poem called \\\"Vox Crapulous\\\".\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:16:09\\nReads \\\"Vox Crapulous\\\" from The Man in Yellow Boots.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:17:31\\nFurther in that vein, this poem’s written October 16, 1964: a momentous day. This poem is called \\\"The Day Before the Chinese A-Bomb\\\".\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:17:46.49\\nReads \\\"The Day Before the Chinese A-Bomb\\\" from The Man in Yellow Boots.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:18:29\\nThis a longer poem, I think one of the two best poems in the book the other one being \\\"The Descent\\\", this poem's called \\\"For WCW\\\"\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:18:39\\nReads \\\"For WCW\\\" from The Man in Yellow Boots.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:21:16\\nThis poem, written during our visit to Mexico [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q96] in 1964, called \\\"Esta Muy Caliente\\\" and the reason it's not called \\\"Hace Mucho Calor\\\" is because of something inherent in the Spanish language that those that know will understand.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:21:35\\nReads \\\"Esta Muy Caliente\\\" from The Man in Yellow Boots.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:23:09\\nI think the following is the best poem in this book, it's called \\\"The Descent\\\", the title taken from a William Carlos Williams [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q178106] poem of course.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:23:18.83\\nReads \\\"The Descent\\\" from The Man in Yellow Boots.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:29:09\\nAnd the last poem in the book, \\\"Breaking Up, Breaking Out\\\".\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:29:14\\nReads \\\"Breaking Up, Breaking Out\\\" from The Man in Yellow Boots.\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:30:03\\nNow, some newer poems, while there's time. This newest one called \\\"The Oil\\\", written after a drive to Edmonton [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q2096] and back from Calgary [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q36312].\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:30:14\\nReads \\\"The Oil\\\" [published later in Rocky Mountain Foot: a lyric, a memoir].\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:32:03\\nHere's a short poem called \\\"I Saw\\\".\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:32:07\\nReads \\\"I Saw\\\".\\n \\nGeorge Bowering\\n00:32:20\\nOkay, when I've just about come to the end of this side of the tape and I don't think I'll use the other side so that you can use it for somebody else, and once again I'm terribly sorry for being so late with this tape, and also if that does seem a loss, I'm sorry for not saying more things about poetry, I've been doing that less and less the further and further I've been getting away from Vancouver.

Fletcher\n008\nDiscusses the principles that are presented in this chapter. (i.e. 1 – Incompetence will show in the use of too many words). Bowering sees this book as a good demonstration of what it asks for itself\n017\nAs Pound notes, the principles that are set here are common to all poetry not just Imagist. The principles that Hume, Pound, Fletcher, etc. set are not an invention of imagism\n0027\n“Archaeological dig” of classicism especially for H.D.\n0029\nPoetic images and dream images. Hume and Freud. Pound and H.D.\n0052\nImagist poetry was sculpture just coming over into speech. Sculpture, like dreams cannot be discussed in terms of meaning save as you attend to its physical properties\n0062\nBowering recommends Pratt’s book on the Imagist poem, particularly the section on Pound’s “Station and the Metro”. “The making of that poem is almost a short history on the making of the Imagist movement”\n0071\nImagism, Bowering says, is a funny thing to have happened in the 20th century. Why should it show up in the 20th Century except as a response to the death of Romantic poetry in the hands of Swinbourne and company\n0077\nDiscussion of images in Romantic poetry at its height (Coleridge and Shelley). Images are not fixed. They are always in motion, in flight\n0098\nConstant flux picked up by American Poets. The prime images in Whitman, for example, are images of things in motion\n0105\nThe beginning of the 19th C. perspective akin to 20th C. notion in physics: impossible to distinguish between matter and energy. To carry (or impose) the image of matter that is not in motion is to impose a false image. And yet, the imagist poem suggest that there are absolute unchanging, eternal realities (with Pound it is rhythm)\n0117\nH.D.’s setting of ancient Greece for the modern mind is one of stasis. She uses “timeless” setting\n0124\nWhat do we make of this?\n0128\nFreud (not a political radical, says Bowering) offers a suggestion, a clue as William James did to G. Stein (another conservative) : there is a common bank of images and a common bank of symbols, that we can share\n0145\nThe mind is a flower pot, says Bowering, and the flower is the same as the one that grew in Greece. A yellow orchid in H.D.’s instance\n0149\nH.D.’s novel Palimpsest is discussed as an example of H.D.’s method\n0184\nImagists especially H.D. used experiences over and over again (“spiral”). A sense that she is hovering over the experiences getting different views, similar to the effect of walking by a Cezanne canvas\n0190\nShe is loyal in terms of detail to each of these times, but there is the sense that time hasn’t happened between them. The images know of no boundary called time\n0206\nShared memory (archetypes). For Freud all images are automatically symbols as soon as people become aware of them (this is echoed by Hume)\n0216\nShelley – I, she, he, it, etc. are simply different words denoting the same thing. Yeats as discussed by Unterraker is presented as an example: “No symbol has a meaning”\n0225\nImplication(s) of this discussed. Word-as-sign is the only exception but as soon as associations are made it becomes a symbol\n0232\nImagists provide exactly what the Freudian analysts did. Images are shared images. What H.D. is looking for according to Robert Duncan, is what the words can offer her. Because for H.D. words offer the unknown, they are not tools as for rationalist poets\n0253\n“What the words conceal” is the quality of words that H.D. is looking for in her poems. She is not using words to do this, the words are using her. Bowering likens this to dreams and psychoanalysis\n0274\nPresents Herbert Read’s discussion/demonstration of the difference between a sign and an image and a metaphor and symbol. Discussed in terms of psychoanalysis\n0297\nThe difference between bad imagist poem and good imagist poem. If the poet cannot resist hinting at the “meaning” of an image this is not an imagist poem. This is connected to the example of a patient undergoing psychoanalysis\n0301\nH.D.’s “Oread” closest to the most perfect imagist poem. Ironically, if patient/reader is asked to find out meaning rather than having one imposed upon her by analyst/poet then s/he is likely to come much closer to “intended” or “shared” meaning, says Bowering. He gives examples (similes, as well as metaphors)\n0324\nT.S. Eliot is quoted (from Preludes) on the experience that the writer/reader of imagist poem has\n0337\nHow are imagist procedures used to make a long poem or a novel? Pound is quoted (on the haiku & noh play) : “its unity consists in one image”\n0356\nBowering presents another view “an aggregate of images” that would lead to Pound’s discovery of ideograms\n0362\nPound’s definition of periplume (?) is given because none other is available\n0373\nPratt’s remarks on the long poems of Pound, Williams & Eliot “aggregate imagist poems set in a mosaic pattern around a dominant image” such as The Wasteland, Bowering likens these to certain early 205h C. paintings\n0380\nThe effect of instantaneous perception is discussed\n0393\nThe isolation of images from their surroundings is more pronounced in 20th C. paintings “unclouded by rhetoric”\n0421\nSolicits questions from students.

Years later she sees a ring in the Louvre which has these images on it. Bowering connects this to collective unconscious (i.e. that images re (re)discovered or (re)membered not invented by individuals\n0617\nH.D.’s search for real and healing images\n0635\nExplains the peculiarly 20th C. view of art: Fragments to be gathered and reconstructed.

Poems might be made to survive by their singularity\n0175\nBriefly looks at “North Star”\n0188\nThe connection between beauty and (the sustenance of) life. The only worthwhile beauty, for H.D., is assertive of life and survival versus decadence. Discusses in relation to the goddesses that H.D. admires (esp. Artemis who is inviolable as well, Athena, Demeter, Circe)\n0241\nIn “The Walls do not Fall” she becomes ISIS, Classicist aesthetics are concerned with the strength and survival of that which is beautiful; that which is beautiful is seen as that which lasts\n0252\nLooks at poem about Athena “Pallas”, an introductory poem. “They” in the poem refers to men\n0262\nReads out a passage. Athena is simultaneously the goddess; protector; example and at the same time, Greece (Athens) and women\n0296\nDiscusses the end-rhyme in the poem\n0302\n“What are the rhymes making you do?” asks Bowering. “This is the angle to attack the poem on.” Uses of rhyme are subtle. They don’t discard real speech patterns\n0332\nDon’t think that H.D. was just an anti-male amazon\n0347\nAnother aspect of the “War Trilogy” that must be kept in mind. One does not reach ‘The Mystery’ by abstractions but by sharp detail. Mentions “the scribe”. H.D. places herself philosophically against the Aristotelian genus sorting. She wants to portray how things come together, “wildly dissimilar yet actuated by the same fear the hippopotamus and the wild deer hide by the same river…”\n0365\nShe is against associating things in that organization “that places everything in boxes”. George discusses the scientific objectification of the world and its relation to capitalistic exploitation\n0408\nLooks at two more poems that connect to “The Walls do not Fall” whose theme is: What do we do with language?\n0413\nAfter the work of the poet has been done the mysteries remain\n0427\nThe mysteries are not explained away as is so common in the 20th Century where mystery gets changed into a puzzle – something solvable (i.e. poems of Tate, Ransom, etc.)\n[0042]\n“The Moon in your Hands” is discussed\n0460\n“The Good Friend” is discussed. A poem about poetry of the Elizabethans and her own – similarities between Elizabethans and moderns. Introduces “War Trilogy” and “Walls do not Fall”\n0514\nGreece is not the metaphor in “The Walls do not Fall”. All the sources of magic, religion, myth (i.e. Christian, Hebraic, Egyptian, Theban and the secret, hermetic forbidden) are there\n0550\nSense that she takes structures from Christianity and extends them so that they will take all the beginnings of myth and religion. The Holy Ghost becomes dreams. We admit the transubstantiation\n0578\nH.D. makes association between rhymes, images and between gods that nobody ever made before because she makes them purely on the basis of sound. Necromancy\n0597\nH.D. wants to make the “associations of delight” in terms of rhyme. She doesn’t see mystery as a puzzle (i.e. something that is outside of us that we can solve)\n0619\nH.D. doesn’t want any frills or ‘poetic devices’ for the war in terms of the use of the language. She wants to show the continuation of the spirit despite the mechanical horrors of war. This is discussed at some length\n0741\n“Inspiration stalks us through gloom” (stalks us unaware as Coleridge said)\n0750\nQuotes Joseph Riddle. “H.D. is like Helen in that she is captive at her loom within the sacred space of the walls (i.e. in Troy) which both protect her and hold her captive”\n0765\nLecture ends\n0771\nEnd of Side One\nSide Two is blank"],"score":1.8138855},{"id":"5774","cataloger_name":["Kate,Moffatt"],"partnerInstitution":["Simon Fraser University"],"collection_source_collection":["Reading in BC Collection"],"source_collection_label":["Reading in BC Collection"],"collection_contributing_unit":["SFU Library"],"source_collection_uri":[""],"collection_image_url":[""],"collection_source_collection_description":["Reading in BC collection was assembled during the late 1970s and ‘80s.

The priests have always been removed from the source of power (especially cosmic power) unlike the poets. The poets have revelations which the priests have to interpret. Poets do not close off any experience\n127\nH.D. does not see the subject/object split. Objects are “messages”\n0141\n“I sense my own limit… Be indigestible, hard, ungiving…” What is suggested by this to Bowering is that the individual consciousness can find access to all truth that has ever existed (D.N.A. : R.N.A. can be seen as repositories of all of it)\n0167\nWhy does anyone break into a song or dance?\n0174\nImage of worm as passage of time\n0188\nIs the genius in the jar another hermetically sealed room? Look at Fisher-King and worm images at some length\n0240\nImage of worm spinning its own shroud –a cocoon Imago – the last flowering stage of metamorphosis and root for image and has specific meaning in Freudian psychology (one’s image of one’s self after having gone through a dialective). Worm image discussed further\n0282\n“We are bearers of the secret wisdom … we are not only non-utilitarian we are pathetic/this is the new heresy/but if you cannot even understand what words say how can you expect to pass judgement on what words conceal.” Words are not tools any more than nature is a tool.

Her search for beauty and the eternal is what is left instead of the eternal, beautiful, perfect\n0222\nBowering explains the difference between a cynic and a skeptic: a cynic denounces the search for the perfect because it is impossible to reach (this in itself is idealism). A skeptic accepts that we seek the perfect in art because that is the impulse to create all the while realizing that this is impossible. The difference between an artist and a “sensible” person lies in the acceptance or rejection, respectively, of this search\n0245\nThis eternal urge is the urge of dreamers, explains Bowering.

She tried to move beyond that\n0086\nWilliam James did not see abstract, logical entities only moving and becoming. This was why he was interested in the process of mind\n0095\nDiscussion of native Indians in California who perceive the world in motion.

Bowering discusses experience and its representation in language. What is the relationship between the primary experience and its representation? This is discussed at some length\n0340\nStein is interested in the conscious mind and its possibilities. Her Poetry works on this as opposed to turn-of-the-century (and later) “mining the unconscious” Stein doesn’t believe in the unconscious\n0354\nStein asks about how we can know the unconscious, consciously\n0363\nIn the late-early period of the early portraits on Tender Buttons Stein no longer thinks that words have to be used to refer to a world. She believes that they can fashion a world or become a world. Words do not have to be signs, images, or symbols\n0424\nRecommends The Third Rose by Malcolm Brinnin (a critical biography of Steins work). “Models’, (Stein reminds us in Brinnin’s book) “were everything until the beginning of the 20th century and now hardly any painter who interests anyone really has any realization that everybody used to have a model.:” This is discussed\n0478\nStein said that it was possible to use language in the way that painters could use color. (But color, plane and proportion in painting are not of themselves highly referential in the same way that language is in the “real” world.) Stein was trying to rescue them from their common dulling associations. She makes an assumption about the effect/experience of language\n(i.e. under the conventions that we have applied to the way we make language work is a primary language, a primary association with words). She believed (quite rightly) that each society’s syntactic habits are enforced in order to enforce political, economic, tribal preferences on the parts of those in power. In our post-Aristotlean world, we, like the Russians and Chinese put subject-over-object in that order. The subject is taken to exist previous to action. The object is only brought into being when that subject acts upon it. The subject object split maintained by language is the root of our exploitive capitalism. Stein is attempting to see the world previous to that overlay (her use of language is remedial)\n0556\nThe art is one’s primary experience while one is viewing it (“reality”). It doesn’t have to refer to some previous model. Bowering says that he will look at cubism later to further illustrate this\n0575\nBowering’s use of the word “order” is to imply a sense of beginning\n0594\nStein is interested mainly in “brain” rather than “mind” unlike H.D. brain can be described in terms of energy (and mind in terms of sets for some reason)\n0623\nMemory in connection to “mind” and “brain” is discussed. Memory, for the purposes of the writer especially (according to Stein) is more fruitful than philosophy or conjecture\n0638\nBowering says that whenever words are put together the product is “real”. It is not possible to not do this. The concept of “real” is discussed at some length\n0724\nA test of Stein’s fiction, says Bowering, would not be whether it is a simulacrum of an experience of the readers’ but whether the reader can remember a character\n0740\nConventional 19th century novels (and paintings) are discussed for their process of cause and effect: set of conditions that becomes the environment; the suggestion is, as it is in naturalism, that environment (as well as heredity) shapes character. Environment and character come together and make the event believable. Stein doesn’t bother with this because people do not look back on their lives that way, says Bowering. She takes major characteristics of a character and shows them appearing again and again through a series of actions. She calls this the continuous present\n0800\nLecture ends\nEnd of side Two"],"score":1.8138855},{"id":"5779","cataloger_name":["Kate,Moffatt"],"partnerInstitution":["Simon Fraser University"],"collection_source_collection":["Reading in BC Collection"],"source_collection_label":["Reading in BC Collection"],"collection_contributing_unit":["SFU Library"],"source_collection_uri":[""],"collection_image_url":[""],"collection_source_collection_description":["Reading in BC collection was assembled during the late 1970s and ‘80s.

Things cannot be seen as different unless they are first seen as similar otherwise there would be no such\nconcept as different.” Bowering waxes metaphysical. Composition and difference are discussed at some length\n0170\nCubism does not want to arrest some object in a moment of time, it wants to get multiple views of the same thing into one space that resists the movement of time. Bowering says he will discuss this further later on in the lecture\n0178\nComposition is involved in the consciousness of seeing (the similar in the different); placing yourself physically in the scene\n0181\nStein on the avant-garde: “No one is ahead of his time. It is only that the particular variety of creating his time is the one that his contemporaries who are also creating their own time refuse to accept.” She once stated that she created the 20th Century when she wrote The Making of Americans. (Created 20th Century America)\n0190\nAgainst description. (Places the writing in past). H.G. Wells is given as an example\n0222\nMcLuhan and rear-view mirror thinking is discussed briefly. “Artists are not ahead of their time,” said McLuhan, “everyone else is behind the time.”\n0231\nStein wants to create one’s time, says Bowering. This is the only thing one can do if one is not satisfied trying to describe (or translate) one’s time. This places one in the past and Stein is not interested in this\n0240\n“Those who are creating the modern composition authentically are naturally only of importance when they are dead because by that time the modern composition having become past is classified,” said Stein, “and the description of it is classical. This is the reason why the creator of the new composition in the arts is an outlaw until he is a classic. There is hardly a moment in between and it really is too bad, very much too bad, naturally for the creator but also very much too bad for the enjoyer. They all would really enjoy the created soon after it is made than when it is already a classic”\n0250\nThe irritation (shock) of the new (in literature or visual art) is discussed\n0270\nWhat is the source of this irritation? Stein locates it at the reader’s (or audience’s) experience of the work (rather than the work itself). Bowering gives a rather unconvincing David Hume-like analogy\n0279\nWhat is the source of this irritation? Stein locates it at the reader’s (or audience’s) experience of the work (rather than the work itself). Bowering gives a rather unconvincing David Hume-like analogy\n0300\nThe Stein sense of beautiful versus H.D.’s sense of the beautiful which is the eternal and perfect\n0320\nRepetition, beginnings and the ‘natural thing’ are discussed\n0344\nStein does not want to describe but to find the main characteristic. To solve problems she looked at what was not done, Bowering explains\n0380\nThe effect Stein wants to achieve is similar to the effect the cubists wanted to achieve. She wants to get multiple views of the same thing happening in the same time, explains Bowering. Repetition is discussed again as is the parallel in writing with a painting’s effects showing no recognizable object (no nouns)\n0401\nStein’s repetition of main characteristics in different circumstances is discussed as being the way she paints a picture of a person’s life. This perspective is discussed in relation to a historical perspective. Her point was to make people look at and hear her writing in the same way that the cubists wanted people to look at painting. A great deal of art is self-referring in the 20th century, says Bowering. Visual examples are shown\n0450\nWhile showing slides, Bowering discusses perspective, composition referentiality and abstractions\n0596\nDescription is criticized again and discussed in relation to the paintings on the slides. As soon as one enters into description the elements of nature are used by the artist who wants to direct the viewer/audience into having a certain set response to his main subject material\n0622\nDescription; interpretation, perspective; values systems and ego\n0657\nStein’s phrase on composition is discussed in relation to the direction of attention versus process of mind\n0684\nEnd of lecture and side one\nSide two is blank"],"score":1.8138855},{"id":"5780","cataloger_name":["Kate,Moffatt"],"partnerInstitution":["Simon Fraser University"],"collection_source_collection":["Reading in BC Collection"],"source_collection_label":["Reading in BC Collection"],"collection_contributing_unit":["SFU Library"],"source_collection_uri":[""],"collection_image_url":[""],"collection_source_collection_description":["Reading in BC collection was assembled during the late 1970s and ‘80s.

Pg. 24, “A Question on Time.”\n0042\n“(t)he time in that composition is the natural phenomena of that composition and of that perhaps everyone can be certain” – Stein. This quotation is discussed in relation to time in paintings\n0072\n“Each period of living differs from any other period not in the way life is but in the way life is conducted and that, authentically speaking, is composition.” (Stein is trying to show what it is to live in her time. Composition is discussed in relation to consciousness and against certain kinds of realism\n0112\nStein is not interested in cause and effect or in questions of why people do things but how they do it; this places her as scientist as opposed to a religious or philosophical investigator, Bowering explains\n0119\n“Everything is the same except composition and as the composition is different and always going to be different, everything is not the same”. (p. 28 “composition as explanation”). Bowering discusses this quotation\n0142\nBowering discusses above quotation in relation to H.D. who believed that anyone’s mind could tap the arche-types and dissolve the self. Stein is more interested in how one acts, explains Bowering\n0156\nBowering discusses Melanctha. Though it seems a conventional story for Stein, it is still an odd way of writing for that period (because it is not like descriptive literature), says Bowering\n0182\nStein’s parallel between writing and war. The exigencies that demand modernism : if the war demands modern techniques, those modern techniques will be there sooner than for other things\n0199\nBowering discusses “the time of the composition is a natural thing…”\n0230\nStein tries to make time inconsequential, says Bowering, and the only time that is operative at all is the actual reading time of the piece\n0242\nBowering discusses the cubist’s who did away with conventional use of time and space. They too, like Stein and linguists who study natural language, are looking for an “order’ that exists before the conventionalized, interpretive mind gets a hold of the world and conceals it. This is discussed at quite some length\n0617\nUp until the 20th Century, there are no spaces between things (all space on canvas is filled). In 20th Century art, music and writing, there are spaces between things (different ordering). This is the difference in the modern perspective\n0663\nStein makes a distinction between insistence and repetition. She, as well as Williams, says that Stein doesn’t use repetition. How she writes the portraits is related (by Stein) to how one sees the world around. “Is there repetition or is there insistence? I am included to believe there is no such thing as repetition”. – Stein. This is discussed in relation to “same’ and “different “which is explained in metaphysical terms\n0737\nEnd of lecture\nEnd of Side one\nSide two blank"],"Note":["[]"],"Related_works":["[]"],"_version_":1853670553965035522,"timestamp":"2026-01-07T14:59:58.384Z","score":1.8138855},{"id":"5781","cataloger_name":["Kate,Moffatt"],"partnerInstitution":["Simon Fraser University"],"collection_source_collection":["Reading in BC Collection"],"source_collection_label":["Reading in BC Collection"],"collection_contributing_unit":["SFU Library"],"source_collection_uri":[""],"collection_image_url":[""],"collection_source_collection_description":["Reading in BC collection was assembled during the late 1970s and ‘80s.

Bowering discusses Williams’ urban home town – dirty, filthy, the population a result of the great immigrations into the United States in the early part of the 20th Century to feed the mills\n0027\nBowering notes that Williams chose Patterson as the setting for Paterson, rather than nearby Rutherford, as “He had to write a poem about everything and set it in its specific place”. The image that Paterson contains is the very central image of the waterfalls\n0032\nLike In the American Grain, Paterson is a book, a poem, about making poetry. Bowering goes on to discuss Paterson as a veritable mine of information on what Williams and other contemporaries thought and felt about poetics\n0071\n…on some pronouncements about poetry by William Carlos Williams: -- ‘Order’ for example\n0097\nDiscusses Yeats’ views of poetics in reference to a Comparison with Williams’ ideas on ‘order’\n0116\nYeats’ idea was to write a poem that lasts forever, containing images which defy death\n0138\nWilliams on ‘Masterpieces’ – beauty is found in the fresh, the unexplored. Masterpieces are only beautiful in the tragic sense, like a starfish stretched out dead on the beach in the sun\n0151\nBeauty – Uncertainty, hence Williams’ interest in ‘accident’, an important principle in Paterson\n0207\n“The impulse to order, then, involves measure, in all its meanings. The first thing one does when one finds oneself lost is try to start measuring, and the only access one has, in order to start measuring, is one’s own lineaments.” Bowering goes on to discuss various aspects of the idea of ‘measurement’\n0303\nA swift jump into ‘perspective’, another multi-meaning word. ‘Perspective’ suggests that the viewer is at the center, and “everything else is on the outside, and the farther away that something is from that ego, then the less important it is.”\n0337\nBowering discusses the desire of the imagists and the cubists to get rid of, or distort ‘perspective’, either by deliberate placement of an image, or by ‘dis-covering’ it. One can “see the world without dominating it”, as Williams says\n0376\nW.C. Williams says: “It is not what you say that matters, but the manner in which you say it”\n0406\nWilliams on ‘Ex-pression’\n0483\nBowering discusses Williams’ The Wedge, as a book written contemporaneously with Paterson\n0533\nWilliams – “One doesn’t seek beauty, it finds you.”\n0574\nFrom Williams “Revelation”: “The objective in writing is to reveal; it is not to teach, not to advertise, not to sell, not even to communicate (for that needs two), but to “reveal”. Bowering goes on to discuss Williams’ fascination for speech undistorted, by speech that reveals through its particular genre: “As a carrot grows up through the ground will have in its shape the particulars of that ground.” In other words, the place in which a person grows up will have to constitute how that person comes to the world, and has to be ‘dis’covered’ in the work itself\n0620\nBowering closes by looking at a late work of Williams, namely The Poem as a Field of Action (1948), which came out at the same time as Book II of Paterson\n0687\nEnd of Lecture a\n0699\nEnd of Side One\nTwo\nBlank\n\n*This appears to be a second version of Accession Number #674\n\nSide\nTrack\nNo.\nComments\nOne\n0000\n0004\nLecture begins with Bowering explaining various significances of Paterson (i.e. the city in New Jersey)\n0033\nPaterson, like many of Williams’ poems, is about making poems; this is discussed\n0053\nBowering recommends In the American Grain as being one of the most useful and accessible books to an understanding of the local (language and place) and the difference between marrying the language and raping it (with reference to Williams’ writing)\n0071\nBowering gives some of Williams’ pronouncements about poetry (esp. on order). “Time is a storm in which we are all lost only inside the convolutions of the storm itself shall we find our directions”\n0087\nYeats (and Pound) in relation to Williams’ work\n0097\nA discussion of artifacts (emblems of perfection and eternity) with reference to Yeats\n0134\nWhy Williams is opposed to masterpieces – they are “like starfish lying stretched dead on the beach in the sun”.

Paterson is very much about writing\n0071\nDiscussion of the symbolic setting of Paterson, esp. the river and the falls\n0087\nBowering makes the point that one can look at the river in terms of its representation of the passage of one’s life, a familiar metaphor.

The physical setting matches also – Book II about the spring\n0180\nAnother sense of structure in the books parallels the subject matter; Book I is relatively clear and straight-forward, but as we progress through the books, the writing grows progressively more ‘muddied’, as does the river in Paterson in its journey to the sea\n0203\n“There are some very particular oppositions to Eliot in Paterson…”\n0218\nThe image of the Dog\n0275\nThe image of the ‘particulars’ of the river\n0279\nWilliams: “Beauty cannot exist in a museum out of time and away from the human”\n0294\nThe idea of ‘Quest’ in literature is discussed\n0314\nThe theme of Marriage/Union as compared to Divorce/Rape is investigated\n0363\nThe metaphor of the City (Man) and the Park (Woman), with the river as thought is looked at.

One cannot own language or poetry or control it without disrupting its essence\n0172\nWilliams’s examination of two disparate girls who wish to be alike is discussed. This discussion leads into the topic of the range of beauty in nature (ugly to beautiful) and of how that range should be reflected in the language and imagery of poetry. The beauty can be found anywhere – it is how one applies the language to it that interests Williams\n0220\nThe Freudian imagery in Paterson is touched on again by Bowering\n0265\nWilliams views on the ‘library’ and “history, but not for the sake of the encyclopedia”, are examined\n0302\n“The first problem Williams has, if he looks around the city and sees people divorced from their past, divorced from their language, divorced from each other, divorced for the reasons they are doing their jobs, divorced from the possibility of devising their own schedules – he has to find and admit and lay out those faults within himself”\n0372\nBowering notes that, in Paterson, we see people coming together not to share language and themselves, but they gather together as crowds to see dead bodies, to see freaks, to see false language, to rape the earth, to see outside beauty rather than their own\n0432\nQuestions are fielded concerning Book I\n0481\nIf the poet will allow, Bowering notes, his discrepancies, his hesitancies, all his imperfections to appear in the body of the poem, then we are lead to a consideration of the poet, the speaker, much more than we would be if we were offered a poem as a finished and perfect artifact\n0492\nBowering starts on Book II. In Book II, Williams discusses ‘the appearance of contemporaries’\n0547\nPuritans vs. Nature is discussed; “they came across to America claiming that they were going to find and people a new world. What they actually did was to make the Old World over again its worst aspects on the American continent”\n0560\nWilliams is like an explorer of the New World in Book II.

She was born in Ireland in 1957, grew up in Trinidad, and has lived in Canada since the early 1980s. Mootoo studied fine arts at the University of Western Ontario where she began to paint and produce video works. She earned a master of fine arts equivalent at the Emily Carr College of Art and Design in Vancouver in 1982. Mootoo's collection of short stories Out on Main Street was published in 1993. This was followed in 1996 by her first novel, Cereus Blooms at Night, which was published in fourteen countries and was a finalist for the Giller Prize, the Ethel Wilson Fiction Prize, and the Chapters/Books in Canada First Novel Award. In 2001, Mootoo published a collection of poetry, The Predicament of Or. Her second novel, He Drown She in the Sea, was published in May 2005. Mootoo has been a writer in residence at the University of Alberta, at Mills College in Oakland, California, and at the Varuna Writers Residency program in Australia. She has taught writing at the University of Alberta, Capilano College in North Vancouver, the BC Festival of the Arts, and the BC Arts Council. Her visual art and video productions have been exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Queens Museum, the Vancouver Art Gallery, and the Venice Biennale.\n\nThe fonds reflects Mootoo's work as a writer and artist. It contains printed typescripts of published works with drafts and related working papers, published reviews, drafts of unpublished works, lecture notes, professional correspondence, notebooks and sketchbooks, video productions in VHS format, audio materials and works of visual art.\n\nThe audio materials in this collection consist of a reading of Mootoo's story, \"All in a Day,\" as well as radio interviews and panels on Vancouver Coop Radio, Radio Centre-Ville in Montreal, and CBC Radio's Writers and Company."],"collection_source_collection_id":["MsC 76"],"persistent_url":[""],"item_title":["Interview CBC: Shani Mootoo, George Bowering, David Guterson, Audrey Thomas, and Wayson Choy conversation with Eleanor Wachtel at Arts Club Theatre in February 2003 "],"item_title_source":["cassette and j-card"],"item_title_note":["J-card misspells Wayson Choy's name as \"Wayson Choi\""],"item_language":["English"],"item_production_context":["Broadcast"],"item_series_title":["Unarchiving the Margins Collection"],"item_series_description":["Historically, literary studies and literary-archival work has focused on the stories of white, male writers.

Born in Seattle attended the University of California, Berkeley on the G.I. Bill. There he met Ellen King; they married in 1951. In 1956, the Tallmans accepted teaching jobs in the English department at the University of British Columbia, where they helped Earle Birney and Roy Daniells to organize the creative writing department. In 1963, they hosted a poetry conference attended by Denise Levertov, Charles Olson, Allen Ginsberg, Robert Duncan, Margaret Avison, and Philip Whalen. The Tallman home itself also served as a poetry enclave of sorts. It was there that Jack Spicer gave some of his now legendary lectures.
