In his foreword, J.D. McClatchy speaks of the musical qualities of Lindsay's work: ""It is impossible, reading her poems, not to hear a musical hand at work. This is not just a matter of delicacy or virtuosity. It is also a matter of knowing how to phrase a line... Lindsay moves from detail to trope with utter poise, with an intuitive sense of what to sustain or emphasize. Her language is crisp. I can pick a stanza at random... and praise its plosive energy, its modulated vowels, its variety and elan... Where She Always Was allows us . . . the rare gratification of watching a poet-

In this work an attempt is made to describe formism in terms of Tytuz Czyżewski's poetry as an independent poetic approach. The starting point is the aesthetic writings on the visual art of Chwistek and Witkacy. On the basis of central ideas developed in them, the formistic can be made more recognizable and serve as a basis for the interpretation of Czyżewski's poems. Thus, their analysis deals with problems of a form-oriented art, the relationship between form and content in the literary work of art, and the relationship between art and extra-artistic reality, with which the formists' intention is to dissolve art or literature from their mimetic function and to emphasize the individual processing of the outer world by the artist. Such understood poetic formism stands for a thoroughly original literary approach, which apart from Expressionism and Futurism can be regarded as characteristic of the early Polish avant-garde. A comparison of formism with parallel currents of the Hungarian and Czech avant-garde completes this work. In dieser Arbeit wird der Versuch unternommen, den Formismus anhand der Lyrik Tytus Czyżewskis als eigenständigen poetischen Ansatz zu beschreiben. Den Ausgangspunkt bilden dabei die ästhetischen Schriften zur bildenden Kunst von Chwistek und Witkacy. Anhand in ihnen entwickelter zentraler Ideen kann das Formistische besser erkennbar gemacht werden und als Grundlage für die Interpretation von Czyżewskis Gedichten dienen. Somit geht es bei deren Analyse um Probleme einer formorientierten Kunst, um das Verhältnis zwischen Form und Inhalt im literarischen Kunstwerk sowie um die Beziehung zwischen Kunst und außerkünstlerischer Wirklichkeit, womit die Absicht der Formisten verbunden ist, Kunst bzw. Literatur von ihrer mimetischen Funktion zu lösen und die individuelle Verarbeitung der äußeren Welt durch den Künstler hervorzuheben. Ein so verstandener poetischer Formismus steht für einen durchaus originären literarischen Ansatz, der neben Expressionismus und Futurismus als charakteristisch für die frühe polnische Avantgarde gelten kann. Ein Vergleich des Formismus mit parallelen Strömungen der ungarischen bzw. tschechischen Avantgarde bildet den Abschluß dieser Arbeit.

A comprehensive anthology of poetry by American gays, lesbians, bisexuals and transgender persons. It includes representative poems from more than 100 writers from pre-colonial times to the end of the Second World War. The anthology begins with selections of anonymous texts from the oral traditions of Hawaii and Native America, followed by voodoo chants and cowboy songs (with a few limericks thrown in for good measure). The selections are arranged by the year of the poet's birth and include samplings of poetry by a racially and ethnically diverse group of men and women. Contemporary readers will know the work of some of these poets, such as Gertrude Stein and Walt Whitman. Other poets, such as George Sanlayana and Adah Isaacs Menken, will be strangers to most. In all these poels created a rich heritage of verse that has been for the most part masked throughout the history of American literature.
