This should tell you was a novice Ashbery reader I still am, but more importantly, what a good reader & scholar Andrew is. If you haven't read it, you should get a copy of Andrew's <i>Beautiful Enemies: Friendship and Postwar American Poetry," which includes lots of good stuff on Ashbery, Frank O'Hara, & Leroi Jones (Amiri Baraka). If I've misrepresented anyone else's talks in any ways, please post a correction. Otherwise, visit the ongoing experiment that is ThoughtMesh to read the actual papers.</i> Andrew Epstein has informed me that the Ashbery poem referred to in Bob Perelman’s talk that I tried to summarize above is called “Variations, Calypso, and Fugue on a Theme by Ella Wheeler Wilcox,” rather than the confusion I pulled from my notes.
