Lately I have been listening to the forgotten but rediscovered Harvard lectures by Jorge Borges from 1967 - 1968: I share some of his quotes on poetry from his first lecture.
The Riddle of Poetry - 'Beauty is all about us'; 'poetry creates itself'; 'Life is made of poetry if poetry is a passion'; 'poetry is a new experience every time as language itself is shifting'.To hear this gently spoken man of 70 discuss his thoughts on poetry is inspiring. Here is the link to his series of 6 lectures entitled The Craft of Verse. http://thefunambulist.net/2011/08/18/literature-lectures-of-jorge-luis-borges-at-harvard-in-1967-68-on-ubuweb/
