Poetry. Chosen and translated by Paul Blackburn. Drawings by Basil KingLatino/Latina Studies. "No modern Spanish Poet has so seduced the English-speaking world as Federico Garcia Lorca...At once daring and traditional, stark and explosive, his poetry seems to hold vast worlds of violence and sexuality in momentary, volatile equilibrium...Blackburn's translations catch this essential quality...full of the keen sense of words' sound and touch that characterized his own poetry. Blackburn...was one of the art's (translation) recent masters. In mingling his voice with Lorca's, he (Blackburn) has done us all a service" - David H. Rosenthal.

Lorca/Blackburn Poems of Frederico Garcia Lorca

Stop Press

There's a revolution taking place. Few realise its implications - yet those who do are uniquely placed to experience extraordinary success. Those who taught us that hard work and a steady job were the secrets to success were merely repeating what had worked for them, without realising that the ground had shifted underneath them. With 'government guaranteed jobs' replaced by contracts, internet fortunes made overnight, marriages failing at a rate of one in three, average job placement for under 30s less than three years, 100-year-old institutions collapsing each day, and national economies in crisis... Nothing is the same as it was as far as getting what you want out of life is concerned.

Literary Nonfiction. Poetry. Fiction. African &amp; African American Studies. Latinx Studies. Native American Studies. LGBTQIA Studies. Women's Studies. Building on previous projects centered on the pedagogy of poets, and friendship through correspondence, LOST &amp; FOUND SERIES VII breaks new ground to present unpublished and presently unavailable materials by novelist, filmmaker, and activist Toni Cade Bambara; iconic poet-activist-teachers Audre Lorde and June Jordan; scholar, activist, and poet Dr. Jack D. Forbes, and letters between North American poet and translator Paul Blackburn and Argentinian in exile novelist, poet, and translator Julio Cortázar. While Cortázar and Blackburn forged their own institution of sorts, through a friendship that would help ignite the Latin American boom, Forbes, Bambara, Jordan, and Lorde worked in and out of institutions to help transform the landscape of our educational and historical horizons and expectations. For some years Bambara, Jordan, and Lorde all taught together in the City University of New York, the largest urban system in the United States, collaborating with activist students and other faculty to create new curriculum in Black Studies, Ethnic Studies, and Women's Studies. At the same time, Blackburn also taught part-time at City University, while bringing the vision of another world into American English, through his translations of Cortázar, a champion of the Cuban revolution and a writer of unparalleled influence in Latin America. On the other side of the country, Dr. Jack Forbes's vision of hemispheric Indigenous life was brought to bear on his involvement in the creation of D-Q University, the first Indigenous university in California, as well as the creation of Native American Studies at UC Davis, a program that would be emulated at other universities in North America. At the same time, his extraordinary and almost unknown poetry, featured here along with notable materials on his educational activism, presents a vision of Los Angeles cutting across race, class, and ethnicity that the work of all the writers in this Series help us realize. SERIES VII Includes: Audre Lorde: "I teach myself in outline," Notes, Journals, Syllabi, &amp; an Excerpt from Deotha (edited by Miriam Atkin and Iemanjá Brown) Toni Cade Bambara: "Realizing the Dream of a Black University," &amp; Other Writings (Parts I &amp; II) (edited by Makeba Lavan and Conor Tomás Reed) June Jordan "Life Studies," 1966-1976 (edited by Conor Tomás Reed and Talia Shalev) Jack Forbes: "Yanga Ya," Selected Poems &amp; The Goals of Education (Parts I &amp; II) (edited by William Camponovo) Paul Blackburn &amp; Julio Cortázar: "Querido Pablito"/"Julissimo Querido," Selected Correspondence, 1958-1971 (Parts I &amp; II) (edited by Ammiel Alcalay, Jacqui Cornetta, Alison Macomber, and Alexander Soria)
