The non-apology, Lehmann explains, pits the poet against the crazed angel of language. \u201cOur tendency to lie, distort or revise,\u201d Lehman writes, \u201cfollows from the inability of the language to discriminate between truth and falsehood: <a href=\"https:\/\/theamericanscholar.org\/the-fake-apology\/#.\" target=\"_blank\">Language is not self-verifying. Fiction is based on just this discrepancy between language and the duplicitous and calculating writer. Is it a discrepancy\u2014or a struggle<\/a>? Writers often describe their writing as a kind of wrestling match with language, as T. S. Eliot does in \u2018Four Quartets.\u2019 \u201d\n<\/li>\n<li>We can all agree that nothing is more debauched than a five-hundred-year-old drawing of a hand. That\u2019s why we\u2019ve consciously chosen Facebook as the arbiter of our shared morality. Facebook will first find the image of the hand, and then Facebook will do something about it\u2014it will eliminate all traces of the hand. And it has done this very thing with a drawing by Holbein. Thankfully, too, an exemplary moral human (read: not an algorithm) was responsible for removing Holbein\u2019s hand from the social network, Jonathan Jones writes at the <em>Guardian<\/em>: \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/artanddesign\/jonathanjonesblog\/2016\/aug\/31\/facebook-banned-holbein-hand-hans-art-erotic\" target=\"_blank\">It would be more reassuring if computer error were to blame, yet according to Facebook this is no algorithmic accident. An actual conscious human brain honestly thought a Renaissance drawing of a hand was obscene<\/a>. Or did the curator think it was being published without proper copyright permission? That would open a huge hornet\u2019s nest, but Holbein\u2019s drawing is about 500 years old so fair use surely applies.\u201d\n<\/li>\n<li>It has been eighty years since James Agee was offered the assignment of his life by Robert Ingersoll, his editor at <em>Fortune<\/em> magazine. It turns out, too, that this assignment\u2014a piece on the works and days of white sharecroppers in the South\u2014saved Agee from crushing boredom and despondency. At the <em>Los Angeles Review of Books<\/em>, Christopher Knapp retells the tale: \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/lareviewofbooks.org\/article\/eighty-years-james-agee\/\" target=\"_blank\">Agee had been on sabbatical from the magazine for seven months, recovering from his self-disgust. But the time off had been enough to restore his natural enthusiasm<\/a>. As ambivalent as he was about the slick brand of magazine journalism that the Henry Luce publishing empire was built on, he was not only broke, but also desperately bored.\u201d I wonder if <em>Fortune<\/em>\u00a0will run an anniversary special!\n<\/li>\n<li>At <em>The New Yorker<\/em>, Daniel Wenger visits with the poet Bernadette Mayer, who has changed her writing method in the wake of a stroke. It now takes her a full four minutes to mentally compose a poem! \u201cWhen I suggested to Mayer that her poetry had always been rather unbalanced,\u201d Wenger writes, \u201cshe pretended to be dumbfounded, and then explained that the attack had forced her to alter her writing method. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.newyorker.com\/culture-desk\/persons-of-interest\/how-to-look-in-the-mirror-without-saying-i\" target=\"_blank\">Without the use of her right hand, she cannot type quickly enough to transcribe her thoughts as she has them. She must now work out the poem in her mind, which she calls \u2018actually thinking.\u2019 I asked how long in advance she composes her poems before writing them down<\/a>.\u00a0\u2018About four minutes,\u2019 she said\u2014both ribbing me and suggesting that even this obstacle has been made into an object of study.\u201d\n<\/li>\n<li>Holbein\u2019s hand may be morally objectionable, but a band named Penis is fine by me. At <em>Bomb<\/em>, Penis the band offers its \u201cPenis Tenets.\u201d They seem fairly reasonable: \u201c<a href=\"http:\/\/bombmagazine.org\/article\/5274830\/portfolio\" target=\"_blank\">We adjust our expectations and check in with ourselves: \u2018Do I like this? Is this fun?\u2019 WE decide whether or not Penis has value in our lives<\/a>.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cSorry, not sorry!\u201d This little rhetorical slip\u2014a dead hashtag, really\u2014is analyzed by David Lehman as a poetic structure at The American Scholar.
