شيئ من حياتي
خلال اعتقاله طوال اكثر من ثلاث سنوات في سجون بينوشيت، كتب لويس كورفالان، سرا، مذكرات طفولته وشبابه هذه في معسكر الاعتقال في (ريتوكي). إن هذه المذكرات وثيقة هامة لبساطتها وسذاجتها، لانسانيتها وخفة ظلها، ولكن قبل كل شيء وهي ميزة نادرة في السير الذاتية السياسية لانها تحطم الاشكال التقليدية وتفتح اسلوبا جديدا في رواية تاريخ قائد ثوري، من وجهة نظر بعيدة عن اللهجة الانتصارية، وعن الأغراض الدعائية، وعن تزيين وترصيع الماضي انطلاقا من المحصلات. بهذا فإن كتاب السكرتير العام للحزب الشيوعي التشيلي يتوصل الى اثارة القارىء بصدقه الفريد والعميق.
Bond Supply and Excess Bond Returns
We examine empirically how the supply and maturity structure of government debt affect bond yields and expected returns. We organize our investigation around a term-structure model in which risk-averse arbitrageurs absorb shocks to the demand and supply for bonds of different maturities. These shocks affect the term structure because they alter the price of duration risk. Consistent with the model, we find that the maturity-weighted-debt-to-GDP ratio is positively related to bond yields and future returns, controlling for the short rate. Moreover, these effects are stronger for longer-maturity bonds and following periods when arbitrageurs have lost money.

P. K. Page's \Inebriate\: A Gloss on a Glosa
In her commentary on John Ashbery's iconic and ekphrastic \"Self-Portrait in a Convex Mirror,\" Helen Vendler expands the conception of art about art: in the code language of criticism when a poem is said to be about poetry the word \"poetry\" is often used to mean many things: how people construct an intelligibility out of the randomness they experience; how people choose what they love; how people integrate loss and gain; how they distort experience by wish and dream; how they perceive and consolidate flashes of harmony; how they (to end a list otherwise endless) achieve what Keats called a \"Soul or Intelligence destined to possess the sense of Identity\" (224) In other words, poems about poems are poems about being. In both of these books, Page uses the intricate form of the glosa to pay tribute to many of the writers who have influenced her throughout her career. [...]vitally, they had to parallel in an intimate way my own knowledge, experience or-but preferably and-some other indefinable factor I could recognize but not name. Yet when Rilke visited a Russian monastery as a young man, he was deeply attracted to the spiritual values it embodied; his Book of Hours was profoundly influenced by monastic rituals.

\After Rain\ Again: P K. Page and the Labour of Others
[...]it validates a narrative of modernism that I take to be especially destructive to a fuller understanding of Page's poetic project and its politics-for which the question of style is somewhat (though not entirely) beside the point.(Planet 86) Art matters, she insists, because to be granted access to this place \"beyond\" is to be made \"whole again\" (Planet 86).[...]by asserting \"wholeness\" as the supreme value for Page's poetics, Trehearne and other critics merely redraw the uncrossable line between art and life, poetry and praxis, that Page's work had endeavoured to inscribe \"case by case, step by step\" throughout her long career.[...]The Educated Imagination begins with Frye separating out the work of the imagination from other kinds of work and assigning to the imagination \"the power of constructing possible models of human experience\" (5).[...]while nonartistic labour (everything from farming to science to journalism) deals with \"reality,\" art discovers \"the real realities\" which \"are bigger and more intense experiences than anything we can reach-except in our imagination, which is what we're reaching with\" (40).[...]I take the fourth stanza, which is placed centrally in the poem, as more crucial to its overall point than the janitor conceit: \"It is but matter / and it matters not / one whit or tittle / if I wear it out.\" works cited Ballantyne, Emily.
