Keynote by Alice Notley — “Allen Ginsberg: An International Poetry and Its Particles”

That Allen Ginsberg is thus far the one truly international poet that has ever lived, making of his person or speaker or point-dot of location in the poem a verticality or stack of conditions across the globe, as one knowing about any number of places and kinds of consciousness at once . . . Specific poems discussed.

Followed by closing reception.
