	New Directions Publishers - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		New Directions Publishing Corp. was founded in 1936 by James Laughlin, then a Harvard University sophomore.
		The New Directions "annuals", as they are generally called, soon broadened their focus to include quality contemporary writing of all genres or schools, though the work included tended to represent a more intellectual side of American writing as well as a considerable amount of literature in translation from modernist authors around the world.
		New Directions "Poet of the Month" and "Poet of the Year" series published thin volumes representing either lengthy individual poems or small collections of poems on a monthly basis, and a larger volume of poems by a deserving poet once a year.

	Religious Movements Homepage: Gordon Melton on New Age
		The direct apprehension of that power is possibly the most commonly shared experience within the larger esoteric community and is now referred to under a host of names from cosmic light to holy spirit to odic force to orgone energy to, most recently, tackyon energy.
		New Age literature has abundant examples of such healings, and the stories follow much the same spectrum from the mundane to the spectacular that are found in Roman Catholic and Pentecostal literature.
		Through the 1990s, what was called the New Age Movement in the 1980s made a transition from the premillennial vision of an imminent golden age of peace and light to a postmillennial vision of a small group of people operating as the harbinger of the future evolution or Ascension of humanity into a higher life.

	NEW DIRECTIONS PUBLISHING CORP.
		New Directions was founded in 1936, when James Laughlin (1914 - 1997), then a twenty-two-year-old Harvard sophomore, issued the first of the New Directions anthologies.
		Although New Directions started in the service of verbal revolution, it also reprinted Henry James, E.M. Forster, Ronald Firbank and Evelyn Waugh when other publishers would not; when no one would print F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Crack Up, ND did; when The Great Gatsby was out of print, New Directions brought it back.
		New Directions was honored in 1977 with a Carey Thomas Award special citation for distinguished publishing in poetry and experimental prose.

	New Directions from the Field: Chapter 9
		The New York City Gay and Lesbian Anti-Violence Project in New York City provides counseling, advocacy, and legal representation to men and women who have been victims of anti-gay or anti-lesbian violence, sexual assault, domestic violence, HIV-related violence, and other forms of crime.
		Publishers of case reporters, legal compilations, and treatises should expand their issue coding and indices to include crime victim-related categories.
		Currently, publishers of legal references and case reporters do not include victim-related issue codes or indices, making it extremely difficult to conduct legal research on cases and issues of concern to crime victims.

	Amazon.com: New Directions in Sex Therapy: Books: P. Kleinplatz (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		New Directions is a well-organized, bold, and important book that promises up-to-date coverage of the theoretical and research literature in the field of sex therapy.
		Thus New Directions should enjoy a wide readership--it is highly relevant to experienced sex therapists, but it would also be a valuable resource for counselors who have a more general practice and want to incorporate a relational and contextual understanding of sexuality into their clinical work.
		New Directions in Sex Therapy: Innovations and Alternatives focuses on cutting-edge therapy paradigms as alternatives to conventional sex therapy and expands the definition of the field.

	Publishers Marketing Association - Newsletter
		I cannot too strongly encourage publishers, booksellers, and distributors who are thinking strategically to put these events on their calendars for the upcoming San Francisco and East Coast versions this coming year.
		Because the world of publishing remains primarily print-based (although the future of this primacy was called into serious question at Seybold), it is inevitable that the benefits of Web business-to-business efficiencies would reach into the printing industry.
		The "bad news" has to do with the transformation of information and reading functions from the print medium to the electronic medium—as a result, by 2002, more than 50% of the print providers in 1998 will have merged, acquired, or gone out of business.

	Exquisite Corpse - A Journal of Letters and Life
		THE NEW COLOSSUS Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame, With conquering limbs astride from land to land; Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name Mother of Exiles.
		Emma Lazarus, the author of this poem inscribed on the Statue of Liberty in New York harbor, was born in New York City of Sephardic Jewish parents in 1849.
		I would also envision myriad poets and sculptors and architects proposing their visions for such a new colossus, with everything from old-fashioned rhymed verse to rap poetry, from conventional figurative sculpture to post-modern abstraction and "site-specific" conceptual art.

	GameSpy: Nintendo's New Groove: Expanding Gaming's Reach
		The new Nintendo DS has nine titles that have sold over a million units, primarily because the system is reaching out to new audiences.
		Nintendo's drive to reach new audiences is nothing new (speeches at the Game Developer's Conference and Electronic Entertainment Expo for the last several years have made the company's direction clear), and it's not surprising given the slump in the Japanese game market leading up to 2005.
		You won't be able to communicate with other players during the actual game, but before a match starts and after it wraps up players will be able to use the built-in DS microphone to chat with their buddies.

	The New Yorker : critics : content
		Alvin Lustig’s abstract patterns for New Directions editions of Kafka, Henry Miller, and Djuna Barnes in the forties do not seem much more modernist than Arthur Hawkins’s sans-serif, Art Deco-ish designs for Shaw and W. Olaf Stapledon in the thirties, though there is a certain intransigent aloofness in the modest size of Lustig’s title typefaces.
		Designing primarily for James Laughlin’s idealistic New Directions, Lustig was freer from the crasser commercial pressures, but his pronouncements, as teacher and design guru, on the book designer’s social mission seem precariously lofty.
		Publishing forms a minor branch of the entertainment industry, and book design is increasingly a matter of fashion—that is, of attention-getting.

	Register of June Oppen Degnan Papers - MSS 0017
		New Directions often published (with Degnan's guidance and encouragement) books by writers who Degnan admired strongly -- writers who she published in the San Francisco Review.
		In 1968 she served on the board of directors of the New School for Social Research, and she was president of the International Child Art Center in San Francisco from 1971-1972.
		The final subseries in SAN FRANCISCO REVIEW AND NEW DIRECTIONS, "Correspondence from Writers to SFR," consists of original letters and carbons from writers (sent to Degnan or one of her fellow publishers) whose work was published (or was being considered for publication) in San Francisco Review.

	new directions: james laughlin's scrapbook: Books: mensvogue.com
		A 1936 publishing start-up, founded by James Laughlin on income derived from his family's steel-industry fortune, New Directions was for decades almost the only place where you could count on finding what was most exciting and most likely to last.
		In 1938, he wrote to Dylan Thomas: "New Directions is the best publisher for you in America because I fight for my books." Laughlin was in it for the long haul, and never wavered.
		To eavesdrop on Laughlin's publishing life is to be reminded that literature once promised not merely enlightenment but also the most exhilarating kind of fun: more fun, or at least more durable fun, than careering down a ski slope at high speed.

	James Laughlin

		Not all of them, of course, are destined for publication, but the six published volumes listed below--and three yet to be issued--provide a valuable and fascinating source of information about Laughlin, New Directions, and his correspondents which had not been readily available to us until 1989 and the early nineties.

	Jacket 12 - Steven Ford Brown - Introduction - Jorge Carrera Andrade in America
		Although fifty years later the essay, “The New American and His Point of View toward Poetry”, seems dated, at the time it was a dazzling survey of the contemporary Latin American poetry scene of the 1940s, a series of snapshots of an exciting and evolving literary scene taken from the inside.
		It was for many American readers an eloquent introduction to a new literature emerging from the European models to maturity as a purely Latin American literature.
		New cities and countries rose and fell on his horizon with regularity.

	Powell's Books - Byways: A Memoir by James Laughlin
		James Laughlin, the late founder and publisher of New Directions, was also a poet of elegance and distinction.
		It is no exaggeration to say that his publishing house, which he began in 1936 while still an undergraduate at Harvard, changed the way Americans read and write serious literature.
		Yet the man who published some of the greatest writers of the twentieth century remained resistant for most of his life to the memoiristic impulse.
