Soho
Soho: The Rise and Fall documents how a little-known industrial neighborhood in New York became, through one of the accidents of history, a nexus of creative activity for a brief but intensive period. Such an ideal situation--entirely unplanned--could not last forever; the author shows how market forces squeezed out this art utopia, to be replaced by a shadow of its former self.
Sephardic Culture and Me
In memory of my friend Diane Dietchman Tong (1943–1998), an independent scholar who wrote her MA on the Judeo-Spanish language commonly called Ladino. There is a rumour in my family that when I was born in 1940 my parents thought about sending out a card that would read, 'Now we present our son Dick, one part kike, some parts spic'. Politically correct before everyone else, so avant-garde were they, my parents decided instead to print a more conv…

ABC of Contemporary Reading
PREFACE Ezra Pound's purpose in his of (1934) was predisposing people to comprehend modernist poetry. As a longer, more resonant sequel to his earlier essay on How to Read (1928), this book could have been called ABC of Understanding. Pound wanted, with all the intelligence and passion he could command, to sensitize his readers to appreciate the new literature he loved and incidentally made. On behalf of this goal, his book recommends, explains, …

1. The graphic works that I shall describe are both visually and numerically organized and they were made to give aesthetic pleasure. Their 'meaning' is primarily, though not exclusively, in terms of numbers. (The mysticism of numerology does not concern me.)
