 Amazon.ca: Reluctant Gravities: Books: Rosmarie Waldrop   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
Waldrop depicts swerving and desire, particle anihilation and creation, braiding phenomenology with physics: "the hawk's plummet smears the gap visible, a scar to be deciphered as force of attraction.
Or gravity." Waldrop's difficult quidditities gesture toward the European experimenters she has translated, notably Edmond Jab?s.
This influential avant-garde doyenne, whose translations of Edmond Jabs were seminal events in postwar American poetry handily manages [in Another Language: Selected Poems] the paradox of the lucid enigma....She maintains a distinctly American voice--quick-witted, conversational, and visually concrete...a poetry that pleases no less than it puzzles.

 Jacket 23 - Hank Lazer reviews "Lavish Absence" (on Jabès) by Rosmarie Waldrop
When she began to translate Jabès, the response from publishers was hardly overwhelming: “I had translated about fifty pages and sent them with a description of the book, to twenty American publishers.
Waldrop writes of Jabès: “His aim is not to invert the traditional hierarchy of sense over sound, but to establish parity between them, or, rather, to establish a dynamic relation between language and thinking, where the words do not express pre-existing thoughts, but where their physical characteristics are allowed to lead to new thoughts” (70).
In response to a friend’s mentioning of a Chinese tradition of mourning for one year, Waldrop ends her book with the admission, “I myself have a messier sense of mourning, that it is perhaps never done altogether, that is, like memory for Aristotle, a delayed motion that continues to exist in the soul” (155).

Yorke, tearing in again was met with one of the crudest jabs he had ever known--flush in the mouth.
For there--where the hair joins the hoof, technically known as the "coronet"--was a deep, jagged wound, such as is caused usually by a horse slipping and jabbing itself with sharp-pointed shoe-calks.

 CDI Russia Weekly #132 - December 15, 2000   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
Stage-managed to cast President Vladimir Putin in the most favourable light, the Edmond Pope spy drama showed that Russia has yet to bring down the curtain on its Cold War culture of espionage, analysts said Thursday.
"I welcome today's release of Edmond Pope after eight months of detention in Russia and appreciate President Putin's decision to pardon Mr Pope," the US president said in a statement issued by White House officials in London, where he was on an official visit.
But his thinly veiled jab at the United States was accompanied by a plea for nuclear co-operation -- a mission, he said, where Canadian help could be useful.

 Greber
The paradox Jacques Derrida is approaching in Comment ne pas parler is expressed by the cover cartoon: a mirror-shaped NON that marks the evacuated centre of negativity, the evacuated circle or zero.
Similarly, Edmond Jabs makes use of a meaningful palindrome in the context of cabbalistic book mysticism: nÊuÊl - l'ÊuÊn, whereby progressive-regressive readings form the idea of eternal mutability of Zero into One and vice versa.
As a means of simultaneously doing and undoing, the palindrome genre seems to stand for autopoiesis, paradox and undecidability, something which possibly accounts for its boom in postmodern literature.

 16 May History: This Date
In the fall of 1867, President Johnson attempted to test the constitutionality of the act by replacing Stanton with General Ulysses S. Grant.
Nevertheless, he chose not to actively seek reelection, and in November of the same year, Ulysses S. Grant, who supported the Republicans’ radical Reconstruction policies, was elected president of the United States.
General Ulysses S. Grant had successfully run the Confederate gauntlet at Vicksburg and placed the Army of the Tennessee south of the stronghold, the Rebels' last significant holding on the Mississippi River.
