Edited by poet and scholar Ryan Dobran, this volume of
correspondence between the American poet Charles Olson (1910-1970)
and the English poet J. H. Prynne (b. 1936) sheds light on a
little-known but incredibly influential aspect of twentieth-century
transatlantic literary culture. Never before published, the letters
capture their shared passion for knowledge as well as their
distinct writing styles. Written between 1961 and Olson's death in
1970, the letters display the mutual admiration and intimacy that
developed between the two poets after Prynne initiated their
exchange when pursuing work for the literary magazine Prospect.
This work illustrates how Olson and Prynne influenced each other,
and it represents an important step toward understanding their
contributions to poetics on both sides of the Atlantic.

Order, 1989] Glossator publishes original commentaries, editions
and translations of commentaries, and essays and articles relating
to the theory and history of commentary, glossing, and marginalia.
The journal aims to encourage the practice of commentary as a
creative form of intellectual work and to provide a forum for
dialogue and reflection on the past, present, and future of this
ancient genre of writing. By aligning itself, not with any
particular discipline, but with a particular mode of production,
Glossator gives expression to the fact that praxis founds theory.
