And, secondly, he endeavors to demonstrate that the poem, so far from being a versified assemblage of discrete episodes and entities, fully shares in the sophisticated techniques of Augustan poetry and especially in the characteristic web of relations of themes, motifs, and allusions that constitute an integrated whole.
In regard to the former, it is a basic characteristic of Augustan culture in general, and not just Augustan poetry, to exhibit fluidity and more than one dimension.
The historical and political aspects of the age resist stereotyping, pigeonholing, and monolithic categorization as easily as does Augustan poetry; an underlying commonality binds up the poetry with its highly differentiated historical, political, and cultural context.

 Poetry Daily Prose Feature: Conversation with Peter Johnson
The journal's long run and considerable accomplishment would help to integrate prose poetry into the literary landscape, though Johnson admits, "I only planned to do one issue, so calling it Volume One was really a private joke." It seems the joke was on him because the journal lasted nine years.
Mostly I was annoyed by the lack of discipline in the prose of the same poets who would bring much higher standards to their verse poetry.
Originally, I wanted my poetry to echo the metrical schemes and elevated subjects of those Latin and Greek writers I had translated in high school and college, but the results were always strained, inauthentic.

 Guardian Unlimited The Guardian Welcome to Cool Cymru
The establishment of the Welsh Assembly in 1997, the first political assembly since Owain Glyndwr disappeared in 1406, followed a referendum in which the majority in favour of devolution was only 7,000.
The threat to Welsh isn't quite so brutal as it was in the 19th century, when speaking Welsh was regarded as offensive by Anglocentric educators.
The nurturing of the Welsh language, when the other Celtic tongues that were once widely spoken across the British Isles survive hardly at all, is a great source of Welsh pride.
