Synopsis

"[Rothenberg] is probably the gateway to more corners of the earth than any poet in this century. In the pages of a Rothenberg book – the poems as much as the anthologies – the world has a coherence. Perhaps this coherence is false ... but we cannot deny that Rothenberg, as so few others, has managed to construct a world. And more: it is a world, even in the hells of Khurbn, of ecstasy and a fundamental joy. Not Utopia, but a model of the world to set against the world." — Eliot Weinberger "For us, [Jerome Rothenberg] played (and plays) the role Picasso and Braque did for the painters, and Leiris and Bataille later for the French poets: opening the sparkling world that comes when you crack open literature and see the primal gestures of oral energy and sudden imagery from which it all surges. Kabbalah, cave painting, Iroquois legend, navajo chant, hasidic tales, Central Asian epic, German avant-garde, immigrant histories—he summoned us to attend to the deep literature of which the ‘literary’ is only a sheen … he is a great figure, who stands above and beyond the schools and tendentiousnesses of poetics; he has given us, in his poetry, criticism, translation, anthologies, a body of work that exhibits what I suddenly realize is an ethical purity, a touchstone for the genuine." — Robert Kelly "Jerome Rothenberg is a DNA spaceman exploring the mammal caves of Now." — Michael McClure
