WEEK ONE: July 1-July 7 History, Race and Polis, and “Karma’ of the Modernists The Kerouac School at Naropa University, founded in 1974 of its own volition and not as an extension or offshoot
of an English Department, has roots in the most innovative aspects of the New American Poetry, and has extended
itself over decades to include new praxis and world poetics, reveling in diversity and hybrid form. It seems
important given the sorry divisive and tormented nature of US of A political adversity, including gender, class and
racial divides, to review and examine “where we have been.” What is the legacy of Williams, Stevens, Pound, and
Stein, and their post-modern inheritors? How did they set the bar, what were their prejudices, and why do we still
feed off their work? What is the continuing narrative? Where has the gaze gone since, beyond Euro-centrism? This
week, we will look at our own modes of attitude, and the dark shadows of influence under newer world “orders”.
The Kerouac School has always looked to collaboration amongst artists and art forms and the philosophies and
orality of Asian and indigenous art forms. Poet/art thinker Bill Berskon will present a lecture on Gertrude Stein and
her family art legacy, and Jerome Rothenberg will carry us forward to investigate the continuing shamanic powers
of poetry.

The Arcadians––how the pictures so often projected desperate visions of Arcadia, or the Golden Age, when, as Hesiod said, humans lived among the gods, “without sorrow or strife.” “It was like a fantasy of what life’s like when it’s not like it is.” ––Bernadette Mayer.

Hellfire, Drought, and Brimstone: A New Eco-Poetics
Alarm! Human driven modification to the planet’s ecosystems contributes to rising atmosphere
greenhouse gas levels causing extreme fluctuations in weather, altered species distribution, and increase
in extinction rates. And whole cultures and languages are going out of existence as well, affected by basic
human struggle for survival under increasing duress. As we experience, our planet is undergoing
unprecedented instances of climate change, with water clearly emerging as the inestimable element in the
balance of our “oikos” ( root of the word “ecology” meaning house). Fire, floods, and drought have been
causing havoc, as well as strange denial in the will or the polis around issues of gun control in a culture
run wild with violence. The connections between man-made plunder, from frakking to war, have been
established in terms of how we eschew guardianship of our planet and our own communities. Can poets
and artists envision an alternative to this dystopia? How do we address violence, amnesia, deathwish, and
the extreme- almost biblical conditions- of an altered world? How are we adapting?
Faculty: Julia Seko, Robert Gluck, Samuel R. Delany, Orlando White, Elizabeth Willis, Kristin Prevallet,
Ron Silliman, Fred Moten, Selah Saterstrom, HR Hegnauer, CA Conrad, and Rae Armantrout.
