Synopsis

Inish’s poetry mines electric articulations out of the discontinuity that written language inevitably subjects us to, and the affective misdirection it can generate by requiring us to reconstitute a disembodied subjectivity. There is a higher realism in Inish’s deeply material engagement with language, in its enactment of the uncertainties, de- and re-contextualizations, disappearances, and strange adjacencies endemic to writing. This all seems poetry conceptualism, with its faithfulness to the state of textualized bewilderment in which we spend increasing amounts of our time. And while it makes little threat of becoming too standard a model for verisimilitude, it is, in its austerely zany realism, both a faithful document of textual experience and a joy.

Historic Triangle of Virginia...

Editors Charles River

Jamestown is fondly remembered today for being the first permanent English settlement in the colonies, but it was not fondly remembered by those who lived and died there. The English quickly learned it would be difficult to establish a permanent settlement because of the poor weather, the swampy terrain, the hostile natives living nearby, and the general inexperience and ineptitude of the English settlers. During their first winter, everyone nearly starved, and more than half of the settlers died. By the end of the winter of 1609-1610, known as the “starving time”, barely 10% of the settlers were still alive. Nevertheless, Jamestown is remembered today because the settlement did survive through the hardships and go on to serve as the capital of the English colony for much of the 17th century. At the same time, one of the biggest reasons for its survival and fame today can be attributed to the local Native Americans, particularly Pocahontas, who has added both a human and romanticized, mythological element to Jamestown.  
	Along with Jamestown and Yorktown, Colonial Williamsburg is known today as part of the Historic Triangle of Virginia, but all three of these old Virginian sites are known for vastly different reasons. While Yorktown was the scene of the final climactic battle of the American Revolution and Jamestown is remembered for being the first English settlement to survive in Virginia, Colonial Williamsburg is now best known as a bridge to the past.  
 Williamsburg got its start as a fortified site, which was vitally necessary for English settlers to heavily outnumbered by nearby Native Americans, many of which were at times hostile. Known originally as Middle Plantation, the site served as the capital of the colony for much of the 18th century, and it bore witness to seminal events in the history of Revolutionary era America.

Historical Influences - How...

Joseph Arston

Jewish culture and identity are deeply rooted in ancient history, shaped by significant events, traditions, and teachings that continue to influence contemporary Jewish life. From biblical narratives to the Second Temple period, these early foundations laid the groundwork for Jewish beliefs, customs, and communal structures.
The impact of biblical narratives is one of the most defining aspects of Jewish history. The Torah, regarded as the cornerstone of Jewish faith and law, provides a historical and spiritual framework that has guided Jewish life for millennia. Stories of the patriarchs, such as Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, emphasize themes of faith, covenant, and resilience. The Exodus story, recounting the Israelites’ liberation from Egypt, remains a central symbol of perseverance and divine intervention, shaping Jewish festivals like Passover and reinforcing the concept of Jewish unity. The laws and ethical teachings in the Torah continue to influence Jewish traditions, values, and social practices.
Jewish identity in the ancient world was shaped by interactions with surrounding civilizations. Living in lands governed by powerful empires such as Egypt, Babylon, Persia, and Rome, Jewish communities maintained their distinct religious and cultural practices while also adapting to changing political and social landscapes. The Babylonian Exile in the 6th century BCE was a turning point, as it not only led to the destruction of the First Temple but also forced Jews to develop new ways of preserving their heritage in foreign lands. This period saw the rise of synagogue worship and the emphasis on textual study, both of which remain central to Jewish life today.
