All texts collected in this anthology show clearly a work of poetry that can not be reduced to mere "emission intimate" mood of self in question.
it comes to processing, thus requiring a "reading between the lines and attention to the way it is formed, not as recognition of subjective properties, but as a shared object. Moreover, though the word communication has meaning, is to "share" something: this something is a set of words. Whatever the reasons that led the author to merge them in a certain way, the question is whether that particular world record is also to others, raises questions and leads to other readings, making spring of self-analysis, rethinking, and then mobilizing reinvestment.
not only have to use poetry as an instrument of combat not only the obvious "sleep of reason, but especially against the more veiled, but no less disturbing," sleep imagination. "

catamodernismo and the sinking of modernity, its utopias and his conquests, swept into spasmodic contractions of an era that no longer knows where to attack.
catamoderno but the formula also contains a task, an imperative: it indicates the need to push hard and modern. proceeding that is on the wake of radical modernity and avant-garde dell'oltranzismo, leading to extreme consequences.
catamoderni contains also be a sign of rigor and resistance against the excesses of fashion and the concepts that provide consent, the identity of any kind (be it as such), the now prevailing on content, the moral blackmail, but also against hedonism criptoestetizzanti (perhaps moved by the poetry industry bodies), the erotic controlled as commodified, the whole factory of desire and pleasure.
be catamoderni mark means any intellectual output, creative and non-branded criticality.
but relies on what the criticism in a field of forces that crossed by tension and thus so devoid of footholds in the storm that we through? The answer is the same impossibility of criticism: it generates only an aspiration dissatisfied evidence suppressed, contrast and then allegory of internal contradiction.
Gathered here at the texts Clearly show poetic Work That Can not Be Reduced to the level of a mere 'intimate emission' of the state of mind of the 'i' in question. These creations are subtle, requiring to be 'Read Between the Lines' while ATTENDING to Meaning and form-not as a recognition of subjective properties, But for the sharing of an object. if the word communication has Any Meaning, it is 'sharing something, possessing it in common': this is something a structure of words.
Whatever the reason That induced the writer to combine Theme in A Certain Way, the problem is if this specific verbal world is useful to others, arouses doubt and encourages Further reading, becoming a spur to self-analysis, re-thinking and finally mobilizing King -investment.
it only remains to use poetry as a support in the struggle not only evident Against the 'sleep of reason', But Also and above all Against the veiled But No Less Worrying 'sleep of the imagination'.
Cata-modernism is the sinking of modernism, ITS utopias and Its Achievements, overturned in the spasmodic contractions of an epoch That has no idea what to Rely On.
The Notion of yet cata-modernism is a task and an imperative: Indicates the need to take it as modernism as it can go to. This Means Following in the tracks of radical modernism and avant-garde Extremism, Taking Them to Their ultimate ends.
to be cata-modern rigour and includes a message of resistance to the Tides of fashion & the Notions That will ensure That people agree with you, identity-isms of all kinds (If Only They Were Those of genre), the now-dominant content isms, blackmailing moralisms, But Also to crypto-aestheticising hedonism (Perhaps Transferred from poetry to the industry body) and the kind of eroticism That Is Being Controlled By commercialised - the whole factory of desire and pleasure.
To be modern is to cata-brand to production with the mark of intellectual criticism.
But what is the basis for criticism in tension-ridden Such a force-field, I know Lacking in firm footholds in the tempest raging around us? The Answer Is In The Impossibility of criticism: it is generated as an unsatisfied aspiration, an irrepressible challenged, an internal Thus an allegory of conflict and contradiction.
