I 
"riverted to the classic template"
and I have all my links back + my Creative Commons Licence, my Moon phases, the sitemeter - it is all there, even the world map !
How did I do it? I clicked on 

Template (in the Posting / Settings section)
chose the Htlm version
found a label at the bottom with:

"Rivert to the classic template"

and everything is back again.
Many thanks to Kaz who tried to help me out, but I do not care for the BetaBlogger any more, :-)

Anny

  How very nice of you Bob, I do appreciate any mention.
  Unluckily I switched to Beta Blogger and lost all my links, my sitemeter, and my moon (I also loved that moon: waxing and waning)
  I am therefore quite depressed.

    A while back, I announced that I was going to write about poetry blogs in my Small Press review column.  Since then, I've done a number of them, covering some New-Poetry members' blogs--Mike Snider's and Chris Lott's, for instance.  I'm working on another installment in which I'll be mentioning David Graham's list of blogs, and his Poetry Library.  I want to mention the blog I thought you had, too, David--although it looks like you are one of the few of us without one.  If you have one, please let me know its URL.

    Anyone else who wants to make me aware of a blog, do so.  I can't be exhaustive, but I'm trying to cover as many as I can--across the whole range of what's going on in American poetry.  The column I'm doing today will be about James F.'s, Halvard's, Anny's, Jeff's, Tom Beckett's--and David's, if he has one.  Won't, alas, be able to say much about any of them--but something.

    Thanks, Bob

      Out of town & offline for a week, I'm coming late to this thread, so forgive me if someone's already mentioned a lovely little anthology edited by Karl Shapiro:  *Prose Keys to Modern Poetry*.  I believe it's long out of print, but still available on Amazon & the used shops.   

      Best single collection I've seen, even after all these years.  It collects most of the classic statements from Whitman, Poe, Baudelaire, through Pound, Eliot, Stevens, Lawrence, Jeffers, et al.  From 1962, originally, but not much outdated, since it covers original statements by the originators.  

      Kenner's books are not only essential but great fun to read. 

      Not usually considered much in discussions of modernist thought, Frost has attracted some interesting attention from critics who do consider him such. Richard Poirier's *Frost:  the Work of Knowing* is  about the single best book on Frost, I'd say, and firmly places him as the intellectual peer of Eliot & Stevens.  Frank Lentricchia's *Modernist Quartet* is similar, linking Frost with Pound, Stevens, and Eliot.

      Pinsky's classic *The Situation of Poetry* is about post-modern poetry, but has one of the most lucid discussions of modernist thought that I've seen.

        Don't know if these are useful, but this is what I had to go through:

        Besides the Cantos and Personae by Pound;
        ABC of Reading by EP
        Pound: selected prose 1909-1965
        Guide to Kulchur by EP
        A guide to EP's Personae (1926) Ruthven
        The Solitary Volcano by John Tytell
        The Imagist Poem by William Pratt

        then a couple of guides to the Cantos.

          A request for some of the more scholarly-minded folks in the NewPoetry world:

          One of my comprehensive examinations is on American Modernism.  I'm looking for some titles of critical works that discuss Modernism as a concept.  Particularly helpful would be any work focused on American Modernist writers or artists.  The more contemporary the criticism, the better--although, I'd appreciate any titles. 

          I am looking at Hugh Kenner's two books, The Pound Era & A Homemade World:  American Writers of the Modernist Era.

          I'd appreciate any suggestions. 

          Best,

          Jeff Newberry
