SUMMARY:Reading: "The skeptic makes a return": Lyn Hejinian's Lola the Interpreter
DESCRIPTION:Lyn Hejinian (1941–2024) was a poet\, essayist\, translator\, and publisher. The author of over thirty books\, her staggering œuvre sketches an accretive blueprint for the thoughtness of thought\, forming something like a calculus whose limit approaches the life of a mind and the mind of a life. Dissolving the uneasy boundaries between the surprising\, the quotidian\, the micro\, the macro\, cognition\, memory\, the (inter)personal\, and the political\, Hejinian’s work positions itself and its reader through\, alongside\, as constitutive of the intractable problems of how to write how we think\, how to think how we write. \nWe are honored to host a celebration of Lyn Hejinian on the occasion of the publication of her last book\, Lola the Interpreter\, published posthumously by Wesleyan University Press. Featuring Rachael Guynn Wilson\, Rachel Levitsky\, Ayaz Muratoglu\, Jimin Seo\, Lytle Shaw\, Claire Marie Stancek\, and Colin Vanderburg. \nThis event will also be livestreamed for free on the Project’s YouTube channel.

SUMMARY:Billy Collins\, Terrance Hayes\, Shane McCrae\, Paul Muldoon\, and Patricia Smith: The Power of the Sonnet
DESCRIPTION:Billy Collins\, Terrance Hayes\, Shane McCrae\, Paul Muldoon\, and Patricia Smith join us for a reading in celebration of the most vital\, enthralling\, deceptively simple of poetic forms — the sonnet — and Muldoon’s new anthology\, Scanty Plot of Ground: A Book of Sonnets. \nThe sonnet has sparked the imaginations of poets for centuries — an endlessly malleable site of lyric creation\, packed into 14 lines: poetic lightning in a bottle. Now Muldoon\, Hayes\, Collins\, and some of the sonnet’s most ingenuous contemporary innovators gather for a reading in celebration of the form: from Shakespeare to Elizabeth Bishop\, John Donne to Wanda Coleman\, Arthur Rimbaud to Ted Berrigan\, John Keats to Muldoon and Hayes themselves\, whose own sonnets have altered the landscape of contemporary poetry at large. \nHear a group of some of the nation’s leading poets for a reading from Muldoon’s new anthology: hundreds of years in the making\, fourteen lines at a time\, for one night only.
