ANP PUBLICATIONS AND PROJECTS

Scope and Content of Series

Series 4) ANP PUBLICATIONS AND PROJECTS: Consists of materials relating to three special activities involving ANP and the ANP Curator.
The "Documents for New Poetry" is an ANP pamphlet format series publication which features materials from the ANP's collection. Only two issues were ever published: "Roadtesting the Language: An Interview with Edward Dorn" by Stephen Fredman (1978) and "Paul Blackburn: A Checklist" by Kathleen Woodward (1980). In 1982 a third issue of "Documents for New Poetry" entitled "Objectivist Contexts: George Oppen and Charles Reznikoff" (edited by Kathryn Shevelow) was prepared. However, it was never published due to funding problems. Textual materials for this third issue can be found in the ANP PUBLICATIONS series. These materials include interviews with and about Oppen and Reznikoff, unpublished comments by the two poets, and an article by Tom Sharp on the early publishing history of the Objectivists. Folders are arranged by subject and chronologically by date of publication or possible publication.
This series also contains materials that relate to the "Rasgado En Dos/Ripped In Two" Poetry-Video Project, a thirty-minute sound-and-picture collage featuring the words of four local Chicano poets: Patrick Ojeda, Ruben Medina, Gina Valdes and Alurista. It was sponsored by the California Council for the Humanities, ANP, the UCSD Department of Literature and the UCSD Office of the Chancellor. It was produced by Valley Cable Television in 1984, and was broadcasted on several PBS television stations. Davidson assisted and advised the program's two producers, Claire McClance and Alan McGlade. These materials are organized by subject and arranged chronologically within each folder, and they include grant applications and agreements, correspondence, publicity information, budget plans, schedules, legal documents and scripts.
Also included are materials relating to the San Francisco Renaissance Conference, a festival and conference organized by Davidson and held at UCSD from February 9-12, 1982. Focusing on the San Francisco Literary Renaissance of the mid-fifties and sixties, the conference brought together poets, scholars, editors and the general public. Many well-known figures in contemporary writing attended. These materials are arranged by subject and include grant applications and agreements, legal documents, correspondence, budget plans and publicity items.
Finally, this series contains materials related to John Granger's preparation of the ANP Newsletter for 1988 and for the Spring Quarter of 1989. Materials include correspondence, selections of poems and writings and some rough drafts of essays written for the newsletter. The materials are arranged chronologically.
