New York: Sixteen Months After By Eliot Weinberger 11 January 2003 For years they'll be debating the future of the empty pit where the World Trade Center once stood, with fantastic or hideous proposals of gardens in the sky or indoor lakes or threatening tic-tack-toe-shaped fortresses. But at the moment, the only thing certain is the fate of the actual towers themselves. The scrap steel will be shipped from the Fresh Kills landfill in Staten Island to the Grumman shipyard in Trent Lott's fiefdom of Pascagoula, Mississippi. There, it will
be melted down and turned into the "New York," an $800 million "state of the art" amphibious assault ship. In Bush America, every ploughshare must be beaten into a sword. War and war and war. 150,000 troops are massed in the surrounds of Iraq, many of them reservists pulled from their normal lives, preparing for what the Pentagon is already declaring the "greatest precision-bombing aerial assault in history," to be followed by an invasion which the United Nations estimates will cause 500,000 casualties. There are troops or "advisers" in India, Pakistan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgzystan, Georgia, the Philippines, Colombia . . . and speculation that Iraq is merely a stop on the road to Iran.

More books ... The New Generation of Mexican Poets
by Eliot Weinberger
Jose Luis Rivas, Eliot Weinberger, Harryette Mullen, Pedro Serrano,
Judith Hall and Pura Lopez Colome.
There is a custom in Mexico that all cultural events must have so many introductions that one enters into a kind of state of bliss, where one forgets both the past the everyday life you left behind when you entered the auditorium and the future the event you're supposed to be attending that may or may not follow the introductions. There is a similar custom regarding all events that involve a collaboration between Mexicans and Americans. That is the ritualistic repetition of the dictator Porfirio Diaz's complaint that the problem with Mexico is that it is too far from God and too close to the United States. I've always thought that the problem with the United States is that it is too close to God and too far from Mexico. Americans know everything about God particularly His opinions on certain medical issues but next to nothing about Mexico, apart from some aspects of its folklore, cuisine, and seaside resorts. Above all, we know nothing about its continuing and dynamic cultural life. Most of us couldn't name a painter after the muralists and Tamayo, a single filmmaker, a poet after Paz, a literary novelist younger than Fuentes. And finally getting to the subject few know that Mexico particularly when compared to the United States is a kind of paradise for poets.

An Eagle with a Thousand Heads
Read Eliot Weinberger 's speech
Return to main article Birds are always flying around the heads of poets, but rarely are they imperial eagles with the power of indicating the special qualities of those who, without wanting to, have summoned them. In the case of Eliot Weinberger, there are so many of these eagles of the exceptional flapping in the winds of his accomplishments that the metallic one he is receiving on his chest tonight transforms into a single eagle with a thousand heads. Eliot Weinberger is an everyday presence in the Mexican literary scene. He is really there, although you see him here now, because he is in the minds of a heterodox public of young readers who follow him faithfully in the articles and books he publishes in Mexico, and who look forward to his sharp and sometimes corrosive opinions, so full of humor, inventiveness, and an unusual, extremely personal wisdom. It is not easy to find loyal readers in any country, and few writers have those involuntary ingredients that can turn them into a cult that is paradoxically reverent to the irreverent. Clearly Eliot's acidic qualities come mixed with the flavors of a sincere and contagious passion for literature and its place in the world. Or for the world and its place in literature.

  • "Polemics there are in abundance but one receives the unmistakable impression reading his sentences that he has no brief other than for the quality and literary implications of the work or issue under discussion. (...) Of his two previously published essay collections, the second, Outside Stories , is probably the more florid and satisfying. The pieces are more confident, the leaps and swoops and recombinations of the essay form more daring and successfully achieved." -

  • "From modernist poetry he has learned, as an essayist, about collage and the need for concision and exactitude. He has taken to heart poetics' fluid conflictions between the public and the personal, its conflation of the contemporary and the archaic, and its taste for the encyclopedic. (...) Many of the essays from the first two books, Works on Paper and Outside Stories , are not essays as we know them, but rather dismantlements and explorations of the essay form." -

Kent Johnson interviews
Eliot Weinberger
This piece is 4,600 words or about ten printed pages long.
Kent Johnson: Eliot Weinberger: American (or any other) poetry changes forever with each poem worth reading. The Trade Center attack will not alter the autobiographical, anecdotal, therapeutic poems of the workshops; it will merely add another subject. But it will be interesting to see what happens, if anything, on the progressive front. Their poetry has been a kind of decadent modernism and their politics has tended toward an academic pseudo-Marxism that is completely oblivious to politics as the rest of the world knows it: the infliction and alleviation of suffering. Meaning is not a capitalist construct, as they claim, but meaninglessness is, and 9/11 was an explosion of meaning in the prevailing media-fantasy unreality of the nation.
Kent Johnson: What poem would you have sent around? Eliot Weinberger:
Among the heaps of brick and plaster lies
a girder, still itself among the rubbish. Interesting that someone who has written an hilarious send up of the New Formalism would choose a couplet of near-perfect blank verse as example...

This piece is 1,300 words or about four printed pages long
All the stories from the capitals have grown familiar, but where are the histories and accounts of modernism as it was lived and practiced in the provinces? Latin America , for example, in the first half of the century, has shelves of unwritten magical realist literary biographies: The Peruvian Martín Adán , whose first book made him famous at twenty, and who then checked himself into an insane asylum, where he lived for another sixty years, writing on scraps of paper he threw away that were dutifully collected by the orderlies and sent to his publisher. Jorge Cuesta , a poet and the leading Mexican critic of the 1930's, who castrated and slowly fatally poisoned himself as part of his alchemical experiments. Carlos Oquendo de Amat , a Lima street kid who published one book, 5 Meters of Poems , on a folded sheet of paper five meters long, then gave up writing to join the Communist Party, and bounced in and out of jails and tuberculosis wards in a half-dozen countries before dying in Spain just before the civil war.

poetry@mit Series Presents Double-Bill
(Tech Talk 4/11/2001) Chinese poet Bei Dao and essayist and translator Eliot Weinberger will share the stage in a poetry@mit presentation on Thursday, April 12, 2001 at 7pm in Rm 6-120. Bei Dao, pen name for Zhao Zhenkai, is a leading poet writing in the Chinese language today and a frequent nominee for the Nobel Prize in Literature over the past decade. He will read in Chinese from his current book UnlockPoems by Bei Dao, followed by Mr. Weinbergers English translations. Mr. Weinberger will also read from his latest work, Karmic Traces , a collection of 24 essays of the author's personal travels from Iceland to India to the Amazon, as well as imagined voyages on a 17th century Danish ship bound for India. Born in 1949 in Beijing, Bei Dao assumed international political stature in February 1989 when he wrote and circulated a request that the government of China move towards a new openness. Away from home during the demonstrations in June 1989, he is now unable‹for political reasons‹to return. Bei Dao is the author of The August Sleepwalker Forms of Distance Landscape over Zero Unlock , and a book of essays entitled Blue House . He is currently Lois Wilson Mackey Poet in Residence at Beloit College in Wisconsin. "...To categorize Bei Dao as merely an exile or dissident is to miss the point," wrote Andrew Ervin in the Philadelphia Inquirer. "Bei Dao is simply a poet. There's no greater threat to totalitarianism than individuality, and few living writers possess a voice as elegant as that heard in
