Romanticism and Contemporary Poetry and Poetics
No full textThis volume of Romantic Circles Praxis Series includes an editor's introduction by Lisa M. Steinman, essays by Charles Altieri, Robert Kaufman, and Ellen Keck Stauder.
In this volume, three divergent critics--representing Romanticism, contemporary poetry, and more formal concerns, such as prosody and rhythm--present analyses of five contemporary poets viewed in relationship to several different strains of Romantic poetry or theory.
Charles Altieri reflects on Wordsworth, Arnold, Williams, and the contemporary poetry of Lyn Hejinian and Leslie Scalapino. Robert Kaufman discusses the problematics and uses of Romantic difficulty from Kant through Benjamin, Adorno and the Frankfurt School, to the work of Barbara Guest and Michael Palmer. Finally, Ellen Stauder explores how Mark Doty, through his use fo description and affect, construes and reconstructs the poetry of Keats. All three essays make creative conjectures as to what Romanticism looks like to actively producing poets right now, as well as what constitutes the most compelling contemporary poetic practices.
Romantic poetry, these essays show, has in one way or another set the agenda for contemporary poetics, bequething multiple, and somewhat conflicting, legacies to twentieth-(and twenty-first) century poetry. These essays show that the often disharmonous conversation in which they are engaged is Romanticism's chief legacy to contemporary poetics. </p

Palestinian and Israeli Nonviolent Resistance to the Israeli Occupation
No full textDespite the long history of nonviolent campaigns by Palestinians challenging both British and Zionist colonialism, culminating in the overwhelmingly nonviolent first intifada (1987-93) and the present struggle against the Israeli occupation, this aspect of the Palestinian resistance is vastly under-reported. With her recent interview-based book, Kaufman-Lacusta will highlight non-violent resistance by both Palestinians and Israelis to the Israeli occupation along with ways US citizens can support this resistance.

Common Misconceptions: The Function and Framework of Trade or Business Within the United States
No full textIn this Article, Professor Kaufman examines the administrative and jurisdictional functions of the Internal Revenue Code\u27s term trade or business within the United States in the taxation of foreign persons\u27 income and the existing framework established for the term\u27s interpretation. The author contends that the courts, by relying on two common misconceptions of the term, have made the term\u27s application unpredictable. The author further believes that defining the term according to its functions would serve United States tax policy and economic interests. This definition would focus primarily on facts indicating an ongoing commitment to participation the United States economy. The author concludes that a trade or business within the United States should exist only if the foreign person engages in economic activities in the United States and such activities are considerable, continuous, and regular
Dioniso a Charenton: de Sade e Quills (Philip Kaufman, 2000)
No full textThis article aims at examining Quills (Philip Kaufman, 2000), a movie set at the Charenton insane asylum where the marquis de Sade was confined in the last years of his life (1803-1814). In this film the key issues at stake go beyond the biography of the infamous Marquis. Writer, director and actors wanted to represent and discuss daring and eternal problems such as censorship, art, freedom of expression, and their risks. Furthermore, the author devotes attention to the use of a fundamental book on Greek tragedy that is aptly employed to strenghten the plot, to deepen and to improve the contrast between the leading characters
