City Lights celebrates the publication of "Get the Money!: Collected Prose (1961-1983)" by Ted Berrigan, published by City Lights Books. With Edmund Berrigan, Anselm Berrigan, Erica Kaufman, Hoa Nguyen, and Nick Sturm. This event was originally broadcast via Zoom and hosted by Peter Maravelis and moderated by Garrett Caples. You can purchase copies of "Get the Money!: Collected Prose (1961-1983)" directly from City Lights at a 30% discount here: https://citylights.com/get-the-money/ “Get the Money!” was Ted Berrigan's mantra for the paid writing gigs he took on in support of his career as a poet. This long-awaited collection of his essential prose draws upon the many essays, reviews, introductions, and other texts he produced for hire, as well as material from his journals, travelogues, and assorted, unclassifiable creative texts. "Get the Money!" documents Berrigan's innovative poetics and techniques, as well as the creative milieu of poets–centered around New York's Poetry Project–for whom he served as both nurturer and catalyst. Highlights include his journals from the '60s, depicting his early poetic discoveries and bohemian activities in New York; the previously unpublished “Some Notes About ‘C, ‘” an account of his mimeo magazine that serves as a de facto memoir of the early days of the second-generation New York School; a moving and prescient obituary, “Frank O'Hara Dead at 40”; book “reviews” consisting of poems entirely collaged from lines in the book; art reviews of friends and collaborators like Joe Brainard, George Schneeman, and Jane Freilicher; and his notorious “Interviews” with John Cage and John Ashbery, both of which were completely fabricated. "Get the Money!" provides a view into the development of Berrigan's aesthetics in real time, as he captures the heady excitement of the era and champions the poets and artists he loves. Among the most significant American poets of the later 20th century, Ted Berrigan (1934–1983) was a leading force behind the second-generation New York School. Born in Providence, RI, Berrigan attended various local schools, then enlisted in the Army and was stationed in Korea in the aftermath of the Korean War. In the late '50s on the G.I. Bill, he enrolled in the University of Tulsa in Oklahoma, where he earned a B.A. and M.A. During this period he met his younger poetic and artistic comrades Ron Padgett, Dick Gallup, and Joe Brainard, all four of whom moved to New York City. In the early '60s, he was married to the poet Sandy Berrigan, with whom he had two children, David and Kate. He later married the poet Alice Notley and, after periods in Buffalo, Chicago, New York, Bolinas, London, and Essex, settled with her and their sons, Anselm and Edmund, in New York City, where they eventually all became fixtures of the scene around St. Mark's Poetry Project. Berrigan published a magazine, C, in the 60s, and individual volumes by poets under the imprint C Press. His books of poetry include "The Sonnets (1964, 1967, 1982, 2000)", now published by Penguin, "Collected Poems (2007)" and "Selected Poems (2011)," both published by the University of California.

He studied at Harvard University, where he received his Bachelor of Arts degree, and attended Columbia University for his PhD. As a young poet, Koch was known for his association with the New York School of poetry. Originating at Harvard, where Koch met fellow students Frank O'Hara and John Ashbery, the New York School derived much of its inspiration from the works of action painters Jackson Pollock, Willem de Kooning, and Larry Rivers, whom the poets met in the 1950s after settling in New York City. The poetry of the New York School represented a shift away from the Confessional poets, a popular form of soul-baring poetry that the New York School found distasteful. Instead, their poems were cosmopolitan in spirit and displayed not only the influence of action painting, but of French Surrealism and European avant-gardism in general. In 1970 Ron Padgett and David Shapiro edited and published the first major collection of New York School poetry, An Anthology of New York Poets, which included seven poems by Koch.Koch's association with the New York School worked, in effect, as an apprenticeship. Many critics found Koch's early work obscure, such as Poems (1953), and the epic Ko, or A Season on Earth (1959), yet remarked upon his subsequent writing for its clarity, lyricism, and humor, such as in The Art of Love (1975), which was praised as a graceful, humorous book. His other collections of poetry include New Addresses (Alfred A. Knopf, 2000), winner of the Phi Beta Kappa Poetry Award and a finalist for the National Book Award; Straits (1998); One Train and On the Great Atlantic Rainway, Selected Poems 1950-1988 (both published in 1994), which together earned him the Bollingen Prize in 1995; Seasons of the Earth (1987); On the Edge (1986); Days and Nights (1982); The Burning Mystery of Anna in 1951 (1979); The Duplications (1977); The Pleasures of Peace(1969); When the Sun Tries to Go On (1969); Thank You (1962); and Seasons on Earth(1960).Koch's short plays, many of them produced off- and off-off-Broadway, are collected in The Gold Standard: A Book of Plays. He has also published Making Your Own Days: The Pleasures of Reading and Writing Poetry (Scribners, 1998); The Red Robins (1975), a novel; Hotel Lambosa and Other Stories (1993); and several books on teaching children to write poetry, including Wishes, Lies and Dreams and Rose, Where Did You Get That Red? Koch wrote the libretto for composer Marcello Panni's The Banquet, which premiered in Bremen in June 1998, and his collaborations with painters have been the subject of exhibitions at the Ipswich Museum in England and the De Nagy Gallery in New York. His numerous honors include the Rebekah Johnson Bobbitt National Prize for Poetry, awarded by the Library of Congress in 1996, as well as awards from the American Academy of Arts and Letters and the Fulbright, Guggenheim, and Ingram-Merrill foundations. In 1996 he was inducted as a member of the American Academy of Arts and Letters. Kenneth Koch lived in New York City, where he was professor of English at Columbia University. Koch died on July 6, 2002, from leukemia.From https://poets.org/poet/kenneth-koch. For more information about Kenneth Koch:“Kenneth Koch”: https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poets/kenneth-kochThe Collected Poems of Kenneth Koch: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/94568/the-collected-poems-of-kenneth-koch-by-kenneth-koch/“An Interview with Kenneth Koch”: https://writing.upenn.edu/~afilreis/88/koch.html

Hoy os saludamos desde la Feria del Libro de Madrid. Allí celebramos el legado del humanista Elio Antonio de Lebrija, al que conocemos sobre todo por ser el autor de la primera gramática española, pero que hizo otras aportaciones importantísimas que siguen antojándose modernas cinco siglos después de su muerte. Hablamos de ello con expertos en su figura como el latinista y académico de la RAE Juan Gil Fernández, la periodista Eva Pérez Díaz, autora de la biografía novelada El sueño del gramático (Ed. Fundación José Manuel Lara), el historietista Agustín Comotto, autor del cómic Nebrija (Ed. Nórdica), y Diego Moldes González, director de Relaciones Institucionales de la Fundación Nebrija, que se está volcando en la conmemoración del V centenario de su muerte. Además, aprovechamos que estamos en la feria para recomendaros algunos títulos que celebran la literatura y se escapan del mandato de los libros más vendidos, como la Poesía completa de John Keats (Ed. Berenice) en edición bilingüe del traductor José Luis Rey; la peculiarísima novela de Ron Padgett titulada Motor Maids: un viaje maravilloso (Ed. Firmamento); los ensayos literarios Libro albedrío (Ed. Varasek), de Eduardo Espina, y El tambor, el río y la máscara (Ed. Gadir), de Santiago D´Ors; y los libros de aforismos Envasado al vacío (Ed. Cuadernos del vigía), de Antonio Cortijo, y Papiroflexia (Ed. Fórcola), de Guillermo Busutil. También escuchamos las recomendaciones que los oyentes nos han dejado en nuestro buzón de voz (en el 689 823 823), que esta vez giran en torno a la novela Un amor (Ed. Anagrama), de Sara Mesa, una de las autoras que firman en la feria. Escuchar audio

Today is the birthday of poet, essayist, and translator Ron Padgett (1942), whose poetry has been featured many times on the Almanac.

Four weeks into our collective Great Pause, the Bafflers examine “Red Shift,” Ted Berrigan’s iconic New York School poem. This close reading – distinguished in part by our own Sparrow having been Berrigan’s student - proceeds from the astrophysical definition of “redshift” to speculations into what attributive meanings to which Berrigan might allude. This includes a broad look into the nature of time as surfaced in the poem and in part depth charged in Berrigan situating the poem “at 8:08 p.m.” (the Eight-Fold Path, I-Ching and Hubble’s insights into an exploding universe). We touch on his forebearers – Allen Ginsberg, Frank O’Hara and John Ashbery - as well as Berrigan’s friends and allies, including Joe Brainard, Dick Gallup and Ron Padgett (including a nod to the latter’s memoir TED). We look to his nineteenth-century antecedents in the Transcendentalists and Whitman as well as how Berrigan self-identified as a late Beatnik. We touch on the role the song “California Dreaming” plays in the work and Berrigan’s working-class poetics, among other ruminative forays, including the Esopus River, the poets Jorie Graham, Bernadette Mayer, Lewis Warsh and Robinson Jeffers, as well as what existential insight might be disguised in a Harris Tweed jacket. SPECIAL FEATURE: We embed a recording of Berrigan reading the work at Naropa University, 1982, from EXACT CHANGE Yearbook 1995 no. 1 (Ed. Peter Gizzi). ADDENDUM: 1. The chronological early publishing history of THE SONNETS is correctly listed below: C Press — c1963. Mimeograph edition Grove Press — c1967 United Artists — 1982 (With seven additional sonnets not in original) 2. This podcast includes speculation around Berrigan's financial straits and schemes as well as the circumstances around his death. We regret and ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies, and please listen with an open heart.

Late last week I caught a link in one of my favorite newsletters ( 10 Things by Luke Leighfield ) to a poem titled "How to Be Perfect" by Ron Padgett. There was one particular line that really stuck with me, I'm still thinking about it today. "Imagine what you would like to see happen, and then don't do anything to make it impossible." This made me think of another line I'm fond of sharing, "Every time you say yes to something, you're saying no to something else." What have I been saying yes to that is making it impossible to reach my goals? My things are urgent to others and I'm allowing those to use up my precious time to accomplish what is important to me? In this Get Better Friday video I discuss that exact topic. To be honest, I don't have a great answer for myself, other than knowing I'm going to have to have hard conversations with people... Soon. ***** Let's chat! Contact me Would love to hear from you on this topic!

Edição de 15 de Outubro 2018 - "Poemas Escolhidos", de Ron Padgett

This week is all about sonnets, both traditional and modern. We read and talk about sonnets by John Keats, Gerard Manley Hopkins, William Butler Yeats, John Berryman, e.e. cummings, Ted Berrigan, Bernadette Mayer, Ron Padgett, and Terrance Hayes.

The Verb welcomes January's fresh starts and clear-outs with poems on empty drawers and new beginnings. Ron Padgett, Hollie McNish, Laurie Bolger, Lennox Cato and Harry Giles join Ian McMillan.

Poet Ron Padgett reveals that in the 1960s, he found a dusty novel in a Manhattan bookstore. Originally written for teenage girls during World War I, Padgett has been playfully rewriting it ever since.

Padgett's poems stand in for the poems written by a bus driver in the Jim Jarmusch movie Paterson. Padgett experiences writing poetry as a natural activity, rather like brushing his teeth.

Ron Padgett on having his poems appear in Jim Jarmusch's film Paterson.

Rachel Zucker speaks with poet Matthew Rohrer, author of eight books. The two discuss marriage, lightheartedness, serious poetic practice, little league baseball, and Rohrer’s collaboration with haiku masters in his most recent book, Surrounded by Friends. With jaunts into his own academic career and his influences, Rohrer speaks on his understanding of the New York School, an unpublished interview with Ron Padgett, and receiving criticism for being “too adoring.” The conversation touches on a variety of subjects, including Rohrer’s forthcoming book, his dreamed list of “what-not-to-do” in poetry, and the importance of addressing politics in his work.

An informal conversation between poets John Ashbery and Ron Padgett, remembering the life of Frank O’Hara. Conducted at Harvard University in April 2011, and used by permission of Ron Padgett, John Ashbery, and the Woodberry Poetry Room, Harvard College Library. To see the event video, click here.
