	Jacket 15 - Keston Sutherland - The Trade in Bathos
		Bathos is “the Bottom, the End, the Central Point, the non plus ultra of true Modern Poesie!”[note 1] Pope believed that the majority of poets, whose “Trade” and “Manufacture” of verses had reached a “flourishing state”, were responsible for vitiating the image of nature through absurd or nonsensical descriptions of it.
		Bathos is the livid fact and outrage of that split, the infection of all idealistic content in language with its own excluded position, its own existence as an ecstatic compromise.
		This is all bathos, the deliberate misuse of language in deliberate vitiation of our relation to truth, whether we think that truth is rotting away in the tree trunks of tropical South America, or that truth is unacceptable to the mind of man and can be swapped playfully for untruth.

	Music Reviews
		Bathos on omituinen levy, jonka aito sisäistäminen on varmasti täysi mahdottomuus.
		Bathos on niitä harvoja tapauksia, jotka ovat kuluneen vuoden aikana nousseet esille promopinosta jonkin ulkomusiikillisen tekijän ansiosta ja osoittautuneet vielä musiikinkin kannalta erinomaiseksi jäljeksi.
		Bathos on polveileva unimatka läpi tunnetilojen ja vaihtoehtomaailmoiden, joissa laulukielet, instrumentit ja jopa kansitaide sekoittuvat psykedeeliseksi kollaasiksi.

		Hint to solving the playing card machine, so that you can get another bathos (again, make a note of the symbol on the playing card machine so you can find it drawn on the canyon wall), is to take pen and paper for recording where you will position the nine cards on the nine-card grid.
		When that's accomplished, it becomes a matter CONCENTRATION for you, whereupon the hidden bathos will be revealed for your retrieval after you have successfully turned over the last card.

		But as much as I appreciate it as a literary device, bathos is seems to occur more and more commonly in my real life, where it can be a little disconcerting.
		By contrast - and here's where the bathos comes in - bingo is a ridiculous thing.
		Yet while the debate that might decide the fate of the world was raging, I was ticking off cliche phrases on a specially-prepared bingo card.

	Eng. 230: Great Narrative Works&emdash;Guide to Literary Terms
		Bathos, by contract, refers to the distancing effect that is often achieved in satires and mock epics when the reader sees a character or action ridiculed often through the yoking of epic style and trivial act.
		Pope's essay, On Bathos: Of the Art of Sinking in Poetry (1727), parodies Longinus' ancient Greek essay, On the Sublime, and makes fun of authors who, by similar unintended juxtaposition of high and low, end up sounding ridiculous, for example "the modest request of two absent lovers" in a contemporary poem: "Ye Gods!
		Bathos can be said to function by the disjunction between a mundane story and an elaborately grand discursive presentation.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Alexander Pope
		It was at once attacked by Theobald, who thus exposed himself to the characteristic vengeance which Pope was shortly to take by makaing him the first hero of the "Dunciad".
		Arising partly out of the performance of "Scriblerus", Pope and Swift published in 1727-28 three volumes of their "Miscellanies", which contained among other things Pope's "Treatise on the Bathos, or the Art of Sinking in Poetry", illustrated by examples from the inferior poets of the day.
		These "Miscellanies", and particularly the "Bathos", drew down upon the authors a torrent of abuse from every quill-driver and poetaster who had been in reality attacked or fancied himself ridiculed.

		Beiderbecke symbolizes the middle-class white American with a musical aptitude, whose whole course of existence was changed through exposure to the new African American art.
		Beiderbecke enjoyed a brief and riotous career, beginning in 1923 with a band of college boys called The Wolverines, and ending in bathos with the pseudo- symphonic puerilities of the Paul Whiteman Orchestra.
		At his peak, around r927, Beiderbecke, through the agency of an exquisite bell-like tone, produced sequences of subtle phrases which made up in introspective intensity what they lacked of the fire and passion of an Armstrong.
