Here I look forward to publishing excerpts from seminar papers and class reports about the poetry and literature of America, England, France, and elsewhere, showing some of the variety of what I have studied and learned from the education Aesthetic Realism, founded in 1941 by poet and scholar Eli Siegel.
This is the title of the forthcoming issue of The Right of Aesthetic Realism to Be Known, which will usefully educate people in how to see the financial crisis we are in the midst of now. In this important issue, number 1729, editor Ellen Reiss writes in her commentary about the real cause of the economic meltdown and what is necessary for economics to be strong and kind. And she discusses what Eli Siegel, poet, critic, and founder of Aesthetic Realism was first to see in 1976, the truth of which has been borne out year after year. Mr. Siegel explained:
"There will be no economic recovery in the world until economics itself, the making of money, the having of jobs, becomes ethical; is based on good will rather than on the ill will which has been predominant for centuries."

There will be a of a production by the Aesthetic Realism Theatre Company of Eli Siegel's great 1970 lecture on Robert Southey's Wat Tyler. It will take place Sunday, May 6 at 2:30 at the Aesthetic Realism Foundation, 141 Greene Street, NYC. This play--about the rights of people-- is so relevant today. If you live in the NY Metropolitan area, don't miss it!
