Podcast appearances and mentions of Eliot Weinberger

Pilar Adón nos habla de Las iras (Ed. Galaxia Gutenberg), su último libro de cuentos, en el que profundiza en su particularisimo universo literario, tan hermoso como cruel.Luego, Javier Lostalé abre su ventanita a la Poesía reunida (Ed. Torremozas) de Juana Castro, una de las voces fundamentales de la generación de los setenta.En su sección, Ignacio Elguero no recomienda dos títulos: Ibéricas (Ed. Planeta), volumen en el que la comunicadora y medievalista Ángela Vicario repasa la biografía de mujeres de toda condición que vivían en la península ibérica durante el Medievo, y Antes de que Google nos alcance (Ed. Reino de Cordelia), un poemario de Julián Quirós.Además, nuestro colaborador Sergio C. Fanjul saca a colación el tema de la autoría colectiva al hilo de Ovni 78 (Ed. Anagrama), la nueva novela de Wu Ming, un colectivo italiano compuesto por cinco escritores que escriben a diez manos.El broche lo pone Mariano Peyrou, que esta vez nos propone un libro muy heterogéneo, casi un collage, en el que el escritor neoyorquino Eliot Weinberger reúne textos muy sui generis (y estimulantes) de los ámbitos de la antropología, la literatura y la filosofía.Escuchar audio

New Directions at 85: The Anniversary Celebration with Forrest Gander as MC and Rosmarie Waldrop, Susan Howe, Nathaniel Tarn, Nathaniel Mackey, Mei-mei Berssenbrugge, Sylvia Legris, Michael Palmer, Will Alexander, Eliot Weinberger, and other surprise guests. This event was originally broadcast live via zoom on Thursday, June 3, 2021 and was introduced by City Lights' Peter Maravelis and hosted by Forrest Gander. New Directions was founded in 1936 by James Laughlin, then a Harvard University sophomore, via advice from Ezra Pound to "do something useful" after finishing his studies at Harvard. The first projects to come out of New Directions were anthologies of new writing, each titled "New Directions in Poetry and Prose" (until 1966's NDPP 19). Early writers incorporated in these anthologies include Dylan Thomas, Marianne Moore, Wallace Stevens, Thomas Merton, Denise Levertov, James Agee, and Lawrence Ferlinghetti. New Directions publishing program includes writing of all genres, representing not only American writing, but also a considerable amount of literature in translation from modernist authors around the world. Among some of the writers they have published are Nobel Prize Winners: Andre Gide, Pablo Neruda, Boris Pasternak, Octavio Paz, Pulitzer Prize Winners: Hilton Als, George Oppen, Gary Snyder, Williams Carlos Williams, National Book Award Winners: Yoko Tawada, Nathaniel Mackey, Man Booker Prize Winner László Krasznahorkai, as well as many others. The current focus of New Directions is threefold: discovering and introducing to the US contemporary international writers; publishing new and experimental American poetry and prose; and reissuing New Directions' classic titles in new editions. Drawing from the tradition of the early anthologies and series, New Directions launched the Pearl series, which presents short works by New Directions writers in slim, minimalist volumes designed by Rodrigo Corral.

Angels: what do we really know about them? Where do they come from, what are they made of, how do they communicate and perceive?

Eliot Weinberger gilt als einer der brilliantesten Essayisten der Gegenwart. Vor bald 20 Jahren erschien sein erster Essayband auf Deutsch, seitdem folgten viele weitere Bücher. Darin schildert Weinberger den Lesern exotische Welten genauso wie geschichtliche Zusammenhänge, die er leichtfüßig mit der Gegenwart verbindet. Als Einführung in Weinbergers Gedankenwelt ist der Debütband "Kaskaden", besonders geeignet, findet unsere Literaturkritikerin Katharina Döbler.

Gabriel Gimber kommt ins Schwärmen, wenn er über Star Wars spricht. Dieser Film hat ihn im eine Begeisterung geweckt, die heute noch anhält und seine berufliche Laufbahn massgebend beeinflusst hat. Nachdem er u.a. als Goldschmied, Koch und Radiomoderator und -redaktor bei Radio32 gearbeitet hat, gründete der gebürtige Bieler 2004 seine eigene Firma gimber.ch 3D Grafik und Animation. Für seine Kunden kreiert er Filme mit Special FX und 3D Animationen - fast wie George Lucas. In dieser Folge spreche ich mit Gabriel über seine spannende Laufbahn, die Gefahr von kreativen Blockaden, die Entwicklung der Branche - und natürlich über TikTok. Gabriel erklärt, wie er Projekte angeht und was ihn als Unternehmer ausmacht. Und wir sprechen über die zwei erfolgreichsten Unternehmer der Welt.

Comentários e leituras a partir das anotações feitas no livro "As estrelas", de Eliot Weinberger.

Uno de los mayores especialistas occidentales en el I´Ching fue el misionero y sinólogo alemán Richard Wilhelm, quien publicó una versión del libro en 1923. Una nueva versión, publicada en 1948, llevaba un prólogo del psiquiatra suizo Carl Jung, autor de la teoría del inconsciente colectivo. ¿QUÉ ES el I Ching? Fue el título de la reciente revisión de Eliot Weinberger de dos nuevas traducciones del I Ching. Es una excelente pregunta, y en su revisión, resume de manera experta la historia del texto, desde sus misteriosos orígenes en el siglo XVII a. C. hasta su introducción al público europeo en el siglo XVIII. Continuando en la cima de la popularidad del libro en Occidente en mediados del siglo XX. Como él resume, el I Ching significaba muchas cosas diferentes para muchas personas diferentes, particularmente en Occidente. Conozcamos el relato…

"In the Aztec empire, every fifty-two years, once in an average lifetime, the world was on the verge of coming to an end. The sun would no longer move, night would be eternal, and man-eating demons would descend to rule the earth." - Eliot Weinberger "In Kingwood, Texas, one afternoon in 2008, a woman and her dog Henry took a walk around their blistering neighborhood. A trio of preteen boys shouted a question at the woman: "Why are you so ugly?", and the woman now regrets not having released her man-eating demon to exact revenge on the little creeps." - Robyn O'Neil LINKS: Find out where to buy Eliot Weinberger's "An Elemental Thing" on the New Directions site here: https://www.ndbooks.com/book/an-elemental-thing/ See the trailer for my film WE, THE MASSES here: https://vimeo.com/26486761 More on director Eoghan Kidney here: http://cargocollective.com/kidney Info on my Ohio exhibition here: https://www.wooster.edu/arts/museum/exhibit/current/ Me on instagram: https://www.instagram.com/robyn_oneil/?hl=en Me on twitter: https://twitter.com/Robyn_ONeil

Two famed poets, essayists and translators — Lydia Davis and Eliot Weinberger — recently read from new work at the True Story: Non-Fiction reading series at the KGB Bar in the East Village. Davis ("The Varieties of Disturbance: Stories") and Weinberger (editor of "American Poetry Since 1950: Innovators & Outsiders"), who have been friends since high school, said they decided to call the genre in which they work "Poetry Essays." "Lydia and I were trying to talk about, 'What do we call this genre?'" said Weinberger. "If you have prose poetry, this is sort of like poetry essay. Or poem essay or something like that, because it’s non-fiction but it looks like a poem." Bon Mots: Lydia Davis on Weinberger: "I knew him when he was shorter than I was. Then, strangely, he grew. He changed. We were pals in high school and we’re still pals. He hasn’t changed much. I don’t know if I’ve changed. Coolest kid in high school I wasn’t. He was." Eliot Weinberger on Davis:  "I’ve known Lydia since I was 13. As she said, she used to tower over me. I grew taller and she grew wiser. It’s not true that I was the coolest person in high school. Lydia was way cooler. She was like 'Nadia, Woman of Mystery.'" Davis on surprising reading selections: "[I'll then read] an excerpt from what will be an even-longer poem based on found material and written, largely in 19th-century American language. So it seemed like the least appropriate thing to read at the KGB Bar. But, we’ll see. I’ve never read it out loud, partly because it didn’t exist until a few days ago." Weinberger on surprising reading selections: "We’re both doing the same thing, which is reading a work that’s totally inappropriate for the East Village or the KGB bar." From Davis' "Our Village," a closing line: "The world has been for me, even from childhood, a great museum."
