He is explaining, more so outlining, the concept of the original duality of male & female.  It is a complimentary notion, that is, unfortunately altered with the birth of Set.  Set represents elements of confusion/chaos\n\t\t027\tBlaser notes the lack of love between Set and his mother.  He comments, in words to the effect of, that this is a strange twist on a rather common theme, that of Mother fixation in no way does this even begin to imply that Set is in any way a child god\n\t\t047\tSet as existing “outside” the community of the gods\n\t\t072\tThe birth of Horus, the undefinable conflict that arises between Horus and Set [in the tangible forms of a homosexual element that seems to be mostly implied in The Book of the Dead and a physical fight that is much more than merely implied]\n\t\t104\tThe importance of the eyes of a being.  Special reference is given to what the eyes reveal after one engages in considerable sexual activity.  Even the gods of The Book of the Dead, according to Blaser feel this is important\n\t\t115\tThe poison semen that Horus receives; the warning given Horus\n\t\t137\tThe sexual element between Horus and Set, noted also is the role Isis plays.

He then goes on to speculate on the alterations in the relationships between the Egyptian gods.  Further speculation is given to the results of Set; homosexual tendencies\n\t\t037\tNotion of duality.  Blaser draws interesting assumption as he displays that Oasis is death from which life arises and Set is life from which death arises.  As the relationship between the two gods deteriorate, Death becomes a visible, semi-separate entity unto itself\n\t\t055\tThe shift in emphasis on the worship of Set by the Egyptians\n\t\t074\tBlaser describes the ideas, mainly the “layers of the world” concept, that he wants the students to keep in mind as they read and re-read the text(s)\n\t\t160\tDiscussion turns to the “central issues”, relating from two particular texts, they being Causal Mythology and Poetry and Truth.  Some of these “issues” include the notions of narrative and vocabulary\n\t\t203\tBeginning of a discussion on the narrative as having two particular facets, that of speech and that of speaking.  Blaser goes on to say “…narrative is made up of events, not facts.”  He stresses the ability of the narrative to pull the reader into the work\n\t\t225\tInvestigation into what Blaser calls “the means whereby we wish to speak of the active mode…”  Topics such as sense, nonsense and a “pure” language are to be raised\n\t\t250\tReiteration of the active role the reader must play in the events of the narrative\n\t\t277\t“Presence” in the work of Jack Spicer, who most of the preceding discussion dealt with.  Also, introduction of Surrealistic concepts into the discourse, specifically “the violent displacement of language that is then intended to control the marvelous”\n\t\t292\tSuggestion to read specific letters of Arthur Rimbaud.  The letters announce the psychological notion of “otherness”\n\t\t325\tBlaser lays great emphasis, perhaps even the major emphasis of the entire course, on the “constant operation of the language”.  Elaboration follows\n\t\t367\tFoucault, French poet, and his analysis of the evolution of the modern mind is stressed.  It too utilized the concept of “otherness’ in a slightly economic sense\n\t\t420\tTape ends, cutting Blaser off in a discussion of scientific principles\nTwo\t\t000\t\n\t\t001\tTape cuts in on some humorous interplay between Blaser and his students\n\t\t003\tDiscussion moves back to the multi-textured issue of language.  Language, it is stressed, by its very nature involves a sense of “otherness”.  “I’m not paying any attention, at this point, to God and all that stuff” says Blaser; he is dealing with direct experience\n\t\t010\tThe consciousness of modern language and its restructuring.  Blaser reads from an essay by Zollah, the title of the essay is unintelligible – that stresses social oneness.  Linguistic origins and the developments of Indo-European tongue are brought to the discussion, especially the connection between myth, symbols and the resulting language in the construction of the self\n\t\t075\tQuestion of a point of detail from a member of the seminar.  Blaser responds by reading from the text and repeating some of what he said previously.  He uses the question as the link to “the consistent movement inside language”\n\t\t095\tBlaser turns to a book by Western Labarr called Ghostdance for which he expresses particular disdain for its overly simplistic and naturalistic approach to the subject of religion\n\t\t148\tQuestion from a seminar member concerning Spicer.  Blaser feels the student has misunderstood his position and goes to re-explain that “the consistent efforts of all these texts is to speak to its own historical past”, adding further examples to strengthen his position.

Pure language being that which involves “us” in polarities and opposites\n\t\t047\tBlaser draws a link from confusion to sexuality to language, making reference to past lectures and the Osiris myth of Kingship\n\t\t054\tDiscussion on the mythological language of “Theogony”, a poem, mentions Blaser, that “is extremely difficult to interpret”, yet this is, in many ways, why he chose to include it in the seminar, especially for its broken narrative\n\t\t063\tThe direct engagement of the poet in his historical condition, “there are not many poets who are engaged in this way”\n\t\t071\tBlaser’s question “Why does theology appear repeatedly?”  Ensuing discussion with emphasis on Spicer and Olson\n\t\t099\tWide tradition of “Theogony”, its language is to be found all around the world – it’s the primary/the pure language\n\t\t135\tThe primary place of “Theogony” in Babylonian New Year worship of Marduk.  Blaser stresses the powerful interaction the piece played in society\n\t\t171\tAfter reading from Genesis, Blaser develops a pattern of “cosmogony and cosmology followed by the genealogy of heroes and priests”.  The Persian story of Ohrmzd and his opposite Ahraman is cited as example of a narration that speaks of polarity.  Blaser notes the “listing” pattern (names, titles, deeds, etc.) in mythology drawing an appropriate contrast between the 50 names of Marduk and the equally numerous names of the Norse God, Odin\n\t\t243\tViolva’s Prophecy is noted as the voice of past, present and future.  Yet another creation myth confirming the listing pattern.  The original tie between the magic and the poetic, before the written word, which implies the theory of the language, the nature of the word.  The magical aspect manifests itself in the power it gives; power over the order or to reveal the order\n\t\t319\tThe need to gather a better understanding of the narrative, utilizing unseen diagrams which draw heavily from West’s introduction to “Theogony” and Normana/Brown.  In the case of “Theogony” this is best displayed in the invocations\n\t\t374\tBlaser draws a parallel between the generational narrative of the Old Testament and other such ancient relevant texts as an example\n\t\t416\tUtilizing the many myths of Zeus and his children as further example, Blaser seeks to display the exclusive nature in his estimation of the generational narrative. The tape ends sharply, cutting Blaser off\nTwo\t\t000\t\n\t\t001\tBlaser’s voice comes in during mid-sentence stressing the need to move through the process of the “Theogony” to reach the generational climax of Zeus and his supreme intelligence\n\t\t021\tThe succession story of Zeus, the birth of Aphrodite and story of Medusa, etc., all flow through each other.  Almost “mythological digressions” yet completely necessary to the great whole of the story\n\t\t070\tThe structure of the poem is the succession story, which Blaser outlines.  He then explores, by listing, the descriptive catalogues of the poem linking them to an implied movement in the human order\n\t\t141\tThe oriental flavor of the poem is pointed out as is West’s mention of a Phoenician history text compiled/written by San Chuniathon (a Phoenician poet) that was translated into Greek around the 2nd century A.D. and eventually translated into English on the insistence of Charles Olson.   Both examples add further strength to the pure/primary language theory\n\t\t230\tSan Chuniathon’s work as yet further example of the narrative move towards an established order\n\t\t244\tBlaser announces a contemporary reading he would like the class to attend.  The writer in question is [Foelling]* Dawson, reading at the Odd Infanitum Gallery, 3632 W. 4th Avenue on October 16/76.  Blaser goes on to discourse on the importance of the contemporary\n\t\t266\tGenealogy in the structural poem “What should be the critic’s vocabulary?”  The succession myth as the plot that is not truly apparent.  Blaser links the genealogy as the “living movement of that succession (myth)” also taken into account is the cosmology\n\t\t319\tDistinction drawn between visionary and prophet.  Examples and embellishment are provided by Blaser to further his point\n\t\t348\tThe prophet poet as one who “looks into his own time” which involves a use of “pure language”, Spicer and Olson are cited\n\t\t379\tReturn to the genealogy of ”Theogony” as the subject of discussion\n\t\t413\tAs Blaser was reintroducing the use of the listing pattern his voice was cut off\n\t\t413\tSide Two ends"],"score":2.7038736},{"id":"6267","cataloger_name":["Linara,Kolosov"],"partnerInstitution":["Simon Fraser University"],"collection_source_collection":["Reading in BC Collection"],"source_collection_label":["Reading in BC Collection"],"collection_contributing_unit":["SFU Library"],"source_collection_uri":[""],"collection_image_url":[""],"collection_source_collection_description":["Reading in BC collection was assembled during the late 1970s and ‘80s.

References to Olson & nature of the “primary” soon follow\n\t\t018\tThe historical task of the poet, the greater context.  Once this has been understood one can truly appreciate texts that stand outside their mere contemporary context, the “otherness” of a poetic text\n\t\t040\tThe 20th century “consciousness of language”, Blaser agrees that the Romantics started the move towards the notion of language but he thinks it was individuals such as Pound who began to comprehend and appreciate the polar relationships of poetry with a consciousness of the nature of language\n\t\t074\tBy way of an investigation into divine poetic nature, Blaser examines texts that detail the relationship between the Ancient (Homeric?) Greeks and their gods\n\t\t104\tThe balance of heaven and earth (“earth and sky”) and the emerging notion of “the universe”.  “A destiny of the Greeks is neither a justification nor disruption or elimination of the natural course of the world.  It is this natural course of the world itself”\n\t\t130\tTo create an understanding of the foundation of this world view, Blaser explains that to the Homeric Greeks the world was not an observable, examinable place but a “realm” of “the ever unobjective to which we are subordinate as long as the paths of birth and death, of blessing and curse, hold us thrust into being where the essential lessons of our history befall us and which are taken over and abandoned, misunderstood and again sought by us.  Their world’s the world.  Prof. Blaser is drawing most of his material from Victor Vycinas’ The Earth and Gods : an introduction to the Philosophy of Martin Heidegger\n\t\t142\tArt as the stabilizer of the lucidity of the world\n\t\t\tProf. Blaser, as he does on other tapes in the series, argues that, as part of human being’s nature, Truth is to be found only in “unreason”.  Truth as emerging from the primeval strife to “that which is”.  The strife between the world and the earth can “only become Truth when it takes a stand within the realm of openness obtained by it.  “….such a “stand” can only be actualized as an Artwork”\n\t\t220\tHermes, who “what he is, as an example of a deity.  The various roles and responsibilities of the god are listed and detailed; an attempt is made by Blaser to limit the god’s many titles into a conceptual whole\n\t\t269\tThe discussion on the many traits of Hermes continues\n\t\t276\tBlaser turns onto Zeus “The worldness of a world is Zeus”.  Zeus as a god of light, which innately infers that Zeus is a god of revealing, “of disclosing… by reflecting the truth of the god, these forms are true.  They are the logos of this god.  Zeus, then, is the logos par excellence\n\t\t289\tThe nature of Truth.  “Truth as Reason, becomes in the poetic argument simply our Reason.  And this confronts what Olson calls the “demonic nature of experience”.  The link is made easily between this notion and the notion of the polarity, the “tension” of experience in mythology.  Reference is made to Charles Olson’s Poetry and Truth (The Beloit Lectures and Poems).  In the existence that lies behind poetry, more than the language we speak\n\t\t311\tReturn of topic to the “tension of existence”.  Blaser notes the interdependence to the “other”.  Olson’s so-called attack on Einstein in Poetry and Truth is brought up to display the content of the concept; Einstein’s relativity is viewed as another one of the modes of reason.  Olson harkens to the dynamically-relational.  A Maurice Merleon-Ponty essay to be found in Sense-non-Sense, is cited by Blaser as summing up the issue at immediate hand here\n\t\t333\tThe disclosure of the world the way it appears to the I.  Again Olson’s Poetry and Truth is mentioned.  One point of particular noteworthiness is that the “I” is to be found “among” not isolated in any manner.  Notion of disclosure and concealment; the “active” agent of the unknown\n\t\t348\tSpeech as a stance of language, revealing the relationship(s) between intellect and objects.  Language and freedom.  Freedom as possessing the individual (not vice versa), Spicer and Olson cited.  Human referring as a result of the outward mode, Logos, in this primary sense, “is our assembling of otherness to ourselves”\n\t\t368\tClassroom confusion results in Blaser repeating his previous statements to clarify their meaning\n\t\t384\tMartin Heidegger is cited once again, a quotation “Our thinking is giving thanks”.  Further quotations are given and explored, all searching for the language behind language\n\t\t398\tOlson’s notion that “so say” (speech) is “to bring into appearance”.  Such a notion should not be confused with the “creation” of appearance; words do not follow things”.  Olson calls this “Mythologos”, words bringing things from their position of concealment\n\t\t407\tSide One ends\nTwo\t\t000\t\n\t\t003\tBlaser’s voice emerges in mid-sentence, discussing such topics as “truth” and “freedom”.  The movement toward “the future” and its being is discussed.  Vyainds’ is quoted and references to Olson and Spicer are made\n\t\t029\tThe future “as “improvised… in Utopias”; with the absence of a tradition, human beings “therefore… constantly break the ties of tradition by revolts”.  While the concept seemingly contradicts itself, Blaser proves the opposite to in fact be the case\n\t\t052\tContemporary human beings standing between philosophy and the upcoming of a greater thought, the thought of being itself”.  Blaser, utilizing Heidegger directly, states that thinking of the future assembles the language/being of the future thinking as no longer philosophy but now mythology\n\t\t106\tOperative and Representational language: Representational language represent the “red” of the world.  Operative language presents – discloses – what was previously covered.  The language is interactive when its operative sense\n\t\t132\tStructural elements of the world: Earth, Sky, Mortals and Gods.  Together they make up the “action of the world… its light”.  Concealment and Revealment are explored once again; Earth as having a “tendency to concealment, the World to revealment.  Art, the Truth, emerges from the strife between the Earth and the World\n\t\t160\tChaos as “the holiness itself: (L. Heidegger), it stands as the ultimate course of all.  The Realm of Destiny, binding everything.  Blaser embellishes this fully, conjuring up Heroditas, Spicer and Olson\n\t\t198\tThe song of the poet being the place where ghouls, human beings and holiness can all appear.  “All true poetry has its beginning in an encounter with the divine”\n\t\t215\tDiscussion moves onto earth-centered religions; the cathonoing society in which the dead are real and powerful in that they go to the earth.  Blaser notes that Spiker refused to separate the dead and the living, and in fact gave the dead a prominence over the living\n\t\t229\tOlympian religion gains prominence over the Cathonain religion, death is shunned.  Numerous references made to Homer’s place in this\n\t\t247\tThe reversal of Logos, the reversal of light.  Characteristics of Olympian and Cathonain religion are explored in contrast\n\t\t280\tEarth, Sky, Gods, Mortal men – “all of them are in strife, as parts of the world”.  Art as a creating a world, creating a hold on the “earth in the world”.  The guarding of the earth and the world in their strife is a fundamental feature of Art work.  Letting the Truth take place in the struggle between the worldness of the world and earth\n\t\t311\tBlaser draws a transition connecting concepts of the ancient world with the contemporary interest in “open form”.  Charles Olson is cited as using such “open form” as projective and as field; Jack Spicer is also cited for his “serial poems’ a constant opening of time itself\n\t\t322\tBlaser vocalizes his view that he feels the “openform” vs. “closed form” debate is little more than an intellectual “hang-up”\n\t\t330\tThe nature of “open form”; openness as it is “attached to a primary condition” – the narrative as a new stance, a new content.  Blaser quotes\n\t\t340\tClosing remarks.  Blaser answers a class question.

The topic is then further expanded into that of Norse religion and the old Norse world view.  Blaser elaborates and explains the myths with references to Indo-European cultures\n\t\t0038\tBlaser discusses the family of languages.  He refers to Webster’s International Dictionary.  He draws together various pieces of cultural evidence to construct the characteristics of “Indo-European speech and culture”\n\t\t0105\tBlaser looks at “The Volaspa” for its Norse creation story.  Discusses the generative act where we have a mutual attraction and opposition of cold and heat.  The singular origin and identity is not the same as the Platonic one; this is a flow\n\t\t0155\tEverything, in this cosmology, returns to matter.  Matter and spirit are not split as in our tradition.  This difference is discussed\n\t\t185\tBlaser discusses the lack of creator in the Norse mythology.  Creation is assumed to be spontaneous as a product of two opposed forces (heat and cold)\n\t\t214\tBlaser refers to Hinduism: he discusses the shape of the cosmos (shaped around the “eternal conflict which is life”).  The cosmos develops in one of a fragile “order” of time and temporal relations with the “threat of disorder” always looming.  Blaser discusses the structure of the Norse cosmos in some detail\n\t\t250\tThe connection between the world of gods and the world of men, the ash tree, Yggdrasil.  Blaser postulates that the world tree, any mythological world tree is the “latent invisible fire in the living wood which is the perfect symbol of eternal spirit trapped in matter”.

Born in Seattle attended the University of California, Berkeley on the G.I. Bill. There he met Ellen King; they married in 1951. In 1956, the Tallmans accepted teaching jobs in the English department at the University of British Columbia, where they helped Earle Birney and Roy Daniells to organize the creative writing department. In 1963, they hosted a poetry conference attended by Denise Levertov, Charles Olson, Allen Ginsberg, Robert Duncan, Margaret Avison, and Philip Whalen. The Tallman home itself also served as a poetry enclave of sorts. It was there that Jack Spicer gave some of his now legendary lectures. Two years later, they held another poetry conference in Berkeley, California. Sometimes criticized by Canadian literary nationalists for turning the Vancouver poetry circle into a California branch plant, Tallman embraced the Black Mountain school approach to poetry, and also was influenced from the Beats and other New American Poets.
