Reflections II / Invitation

I continue with Steiner. I still have many ideas about contemporary poetry, the logocracy, hermetic poetry and its influence in Mexico, difficult issue not so much by the authors (who appear, but only seem obvious) but intertexts and original influences (ie . that gave rise) ... the biggest problem is that I think we have a completely logocrático poet, but moments of light scattered in many authors, fragmentary of Mexican poetry, "or reaction condition? ***




Steiner says:

We are ashamed to admit any modal inhibition, closed confess any expressive act no matter how remote is of our own time and space. But this is spurious receptive ecumenism. Deliberately confuses, with a genuine understanding, with a penetrating look inside, familiarity reconstructive achieved under archaeological knowledge and feeling.

* The secrecy of the post-Mallarmé poetry is an attempt, not without a tinge of irony, to shake off the limitations of the influence and public-academic expectations based on the canonical. ***


On Friday I'll be at a poetry reading in Donceles 66, to go with close friends and contemporaries admired among some of them: Aurelio Meza, Santiago Matías, Karina Falcón, Balam Rodrgio, et al.

A pair of reading tables, a discussion board on the recent Mexican poetry and a book presentation. It all starts at 16:30, but I do not know for certain times of the tables, it seems that I will be the last at about 20:00, then music and something to soak the gullet. (Thanks, by the way, Karina, the mastermind of this, remember a server).

hope we meet there.
