Extractions: What are the conceptual terrains of contemporary Asian American Studies? What theoretical frameworks are most tractable for Asian Americanist critique? For my major exams, I have chosen to read across the field of Asian American Studies to get a sense of what is at stake. I am particularly interested in what genealogies of social and cultural theory Asian Americanists trace and engage. My reading focus is on the work done in Asian American Studies based on various theoretical schools and disciplinary formations.

Researchers must request a listening copy to be produced. Papers of Leslie Scalapino, Bay Area poet, scholar, experimental prose writer and founding editor of O Books, an Oakland, California, publisher.

Leslie Scalapino was born in Santa Barbara, California, in 1944 to singer Dee Jessen and political science professor Robert Scalapino, founder of UC Berkeley's Institute for Asian Studies. Because of her father's academic focus in the politics of Asia, Scalapino traveled thoughout Asia, Africa, and Europe at an early age. Her later work reflects some influence from these travels including meditation on Zen writing and Tibetan philosophy. In the 1960s, she attended Reed College, graduating in 1966. Her graduate studies in writing continued at the University of California, Berkeley, where she earned a M.A. in English (1969), after which she began to focus on writing poetry.

(There are divergences, of course. But that's for another time.) Berssenbruggeâs poems, for me, are beautifully frustrating in their sense/nonsense making, as they move through the flatness of percepts. And the open question is always there for the reader, of how to âtakeâ these thesis-like statements. What to make of them. When I know I will have some time, I like to pick up NEST, and go along in the possibility of going.
Electronic Poetry Review #6 // meimei berssenbrugge s new collection, Nest, is as much concerned with familial and social bonds as the condition of possibility for meaning and for that http://www.epoetry.org/issues/issue6/text/prose/edgerton1.htm
Extractions: Nests are fragile constructions, meant to be abandoned and rebuilt in other spaces. Mei-Mei Berssenbrugge's new collection, Nest , is as much concerned with familial and social bonds as the condition of possibility for meaning and for that desire which is both precipitated by and disruptive of those bonds, leaving painful gaps in our world. Nest proceeds primarily through the further development of Berssenbrugge's poetics of the interval. Space—between subjects, bodies, inside and outside, perception and the elusive real—is here pregnant with invisibilities, desire, possibility, and the tension between communal and individual forces. She is concerned with finding intersections and correspondences within a social "unit," be it one of friendship, family or community, that do not collapse the space of difference in their demand for cohesion. "You don't have to consume the space to exist…," she tells us in the first poem, "Permanent Home," a "structure" with "an appearance of indifferent compoundedness and isolation, heading towards hopelessness." This hopelessness we learn is due precisely to this quest for permanence, the persistent demand for an impossible stasis in social relations that leads to the valorization of status quo over innovation, group solidarity over individual identity. It is openness and not absolute cohesion that is necessary. "A common mistake of the group is requiring each one to compensate for lacks in the whole, to care at any cost," she writes in "I Love Morning."
Extractions: Mei-mei Berssenbrugge was born in Beijing, China, of a Chinese mother and a Dutch American father. She grew up in Massachusetts. She received her B.A. from Reed College and her MFA from Columbia University. A recipient of numerous awards, including two Before Columbus American Book Awards, she is the author of ten books of poetry. Currently Berssenbrugge is living in Abiquiu, New Mexico, with her husband the sculptor Rich Tuttle and their daughter. This interview took place on September 21, 2000 at the State University of New York, Buffalo, where Berssenbrugge was invited to give a reading and to have seminars with students of the Poetics Program of the English Department.

Send a Letter to the Editor view. The comfortable interior my guest inhabits is a moving base, states of dwelling undetermined, walls cross-hatched like mother tongue. Its value is contentless but photographable, in the context of an indigenous population, tipping between physical ease and the freedom of animals accumulating risk. Text imbricated with outside, a wall is waves. So, I decorate in new mother tongue, plasticity of fragment, cool music.
