It is a slightly more liberal English translation of nouns/pronouns originated by the Britishers before everybody caught up.<br /><br /> To say for example .. we never pronounce Krishna or Rama or Deva ..etc with an 'a' at the end. But that is how I believe languages and their power structures evolve and transform. <br /><br />Pardon me if I rambled.<br /><br />ps-And when we had an 'a' at the end of Ganga the Brits claimed it to be Ganges!adityahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16078144194220301083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5849270578857708223.post-29184916747262124072011-07-09T08:38:41.260-04:002011-07-09T08:38:41.260-04:00Thanks, Christien.

Here are the times he reads and/or talk about Shelley:<br /><br />http://www.archive.org/search.php?query=ginsberg%20and%20shelley%20AND%20collection%3Aaudio_bookspoetryIssa's Untidy Huthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07352841590717991698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5849270578857708223.post-566261726400461542011-07-09T08:37:27.000-04:002011-07-09T08:37:27.000-04:00Thanks, Charles.Thanks, Charles.Issa's Untidy Huthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07352841590717991698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5849270578857708223.post-9478263827468152972011-07-09T08:27:18.762-04:002011-07-09T08:27:18.762-04:00Thanks for that.

There's a site where you can download recordings of naropa U. classes (Ginsberg, Mcclure, DiPrima, etc) - since the late seventies. I recall a talk by Ginsberg about Ode to the West Wind...<br /><br />It can be found at the internet archive under naropa poetics audio archive:<br /><br />http://www.archive.org/details/naropaChristien Gholsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09905465637797166958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5849270578857708223.post-80967557207395147802011-07-08T11:08:41.599-04:002011-07-08T11:08:41.599-04:00Cool find.
