Transcription complete.\",\"type\":\"General\"},{\"note\":\"For more information, see the article \\\"Computers to change book form?\\\" from Citizen Book editor, Burt Heward's column, \\\"Cover to Cover\\\" in The Ottawa Citizen, October 19, 1985. https://www.newspapers.com/newspage/464365037/\\nTranscription of \\\"Computers to change book form?\\\": \\n\\\"Ottawa's fourth annual Festival of the Arts is getting its biggest boost ever from the book community, specially the debate today between literary critics Frank Davey of York University and Robin Mathews of Carleton University.\\nThe first of the five lively events under the WordWorks title, the debate between computer-advocate Davey and nationalist Mathews, promises fireworks. It was to begin at 1 p.m. today in the Ottawa Public Library auditorium, Metcalfe and Laurier.\\nAuthor Mathews operates a traditional small publishing operation, Steel Rail Press, while poet Davey is founder of Swift Current, a computer network for writers. Most appropriately for them, the topic is 'Whither the Book?'\\n'I have opposed the Mathews style of nationalism, Davey said earlier, 'because it assumes a single definition of Canadian culture. It seems to stem from a United Empire Loyalist tradition that may be valid in Ontario, but is not in the West.'\\nDavey said he prefers a Diefenbaker-style 'community of communities ... an accumulation of regional artistic cultures.'\\nMathews's traditional views reflect a central stream of Canadian literature and valid concerns--shared by Davey--about the nation's cultural survival. Steel Rail next month launches Ottawa poet Patrick White's long poem in honor of a Chilean leftist martyr, Homage to Victor Jara (paperback, $7.95). It includes translation into Spanish by Ottawa Cuban-Canadian Juan O'Neil.\\nDo books, as we know them, have a future?\\nDavey offers a radical view that publishers will lose their power to decide the number of copies, the type of paper and the cost of books as readers assume authority.\\n'With the computer,' said Davey, 'you can actually send the text of the book to a bookstore and have the printing done there and the reader could determine there all the things decided by the publisher.'\\nDavey said the bookstore printings to suit individuals could vary from cheap formats to some approaching medieval manuscripts in appeal and quality.\\nCanada Council partly funds Swift Current, 'an electronic literary magazine' in which each of 40 Canadian writers edits his or her own contribution to the large data bank (Vax-750 operated by York University).\\n'We offer every reader an option of deleting not only an individual work but an individual author from his or her own view of the data base,' said Davey. Writers participate free in return for their writing and editing work. The 40 subscribers, so far, pay $25 (individuals) or $100 (libraries and other institutions). For classroom study, subscribers can pay for printouts at three cents for 50 lines (about 60 cents for 20 pages)--'a nominal fee.'\\nSwift Current gives regions and individuals an  escape from 'centralizing forces,' and Canadian writers a seawall against the flood of U.S. culture.\\\"\\n\\n\",\"type\":\"General\"}]"],"Related_works":["[]"],"_version_":1853670549989883906,"timestamp":"2026-01-07T14:59:54.597Z","score":2.5092874},{"id":"4266","cataloger_name":["Megan,Butchart"],"partnerInstitution":["University of British Columbia, Okanagan"],"collection_source_collection":["Peter Quartermain fonds"],"source_collection_label":["Peter Quartermain fonds"],"collection_contributing_unit":["SpokenWeb at UBCO"],"source_collection_uri":[""],"collection_image_url":[""],"collection_source_collection_description":["Fonds consists of 180 cassette tapes."],"collection_source_collection_id":["2022.002"],"persistent_url":[""],"item_title":["Steve McCaffery.

Introduction. Robert Kroetsch begins speaking at 2:11. The last time he was in the building was fifteen years ago doing research for Badlands, and is going to read from Badlands as a sort of thank you. First came upon the material by accident while travelling around Alberta, the kind of story he likes to parody in his writing, but through the archive came to have a sympathy for the men. Reads the beginning and the end, narrated by the daughter of William Dawe.\n- “Seed Catalogue”: Reflection on uncle asking “don’t you understand anything?” Robert Kroetsch notes that he’s been writing poems ever since trying to understand, and that perhaps he was right\n- “Delphi”: The only place where the oracle spoke in a human, female voice. There are four voices in this poem: Robert Kroetsch, quotes from Pausanias, commentary by Sir James Fraser, poem called “The Eggplant Poems.”\n- Excerpts: Using country music, the “hurting song.” Short prose entries that look like diary entries, intrigued by the authority that we grant to the diary entry.\n- Excerpts: anecdote on writers spending a good deal of their time travelling - [00:40:40] \n- Advice: Suppressed stories of his mother, a photograph given to him of his mother produced all these poems.\n- Question period: The questions are not very discernable. First question about what he is writing, Robert Kroetsch answers “not really,” that he is writing a novel that is unendable and not about the prairies, also his study of narrative. Second question, going back to Athens and Greece. Notes that he goes back quite frequently as he is married to a Greek woman. Third question about Advice as very different from his other writing. Robert Kroetsch responds that his voice between Field Notes (as personal) and Advice (as a persona) are in fact very different. Fourth question indiscernible, Robert Kroetsch responds that he doesn’t believe that poetry is dead, that poetry ought to be accessible to all. Fifth question indiscernible, Robert Kroetsch responds that this period of reading may be an aberration in the history of language and that we may go back to more elaborate readings.
