WHEN the leaders of world Communism pay state visits to the fraternal Rumanian Socialist Republic, they are often startled to find President Nicolae Ceauşescu flanked by bearded dignitaries in sumptuous clerical robes -usually Patriarch Justinian, the primate of the Rumanian Orthodox Church and Dr. Moses Rosen, the Chief Rabbi of Bucharest. Such affronts to the militantly atheist ideology of Communism have been frequent occurrences since Ceauşescu came to power in 1965. High-ranking prelates are now elected to the Rumanian National Assembly. Some members of the Rumanian Communist Party's Central Committee regularly attend Easter...

...Richard Rosen's essay entitled "Go Away Richard Brautigan, You're Not Helping College Poetry Any," originally started out as a review of the college poetry anthology, Alkahest, but soon revealed itself to be a catalogue of the number and nature of the various ills now afflicting student poetry. It is definitely worthwhile reading, if not for the many good thoughts Rosen has on the subject, then at least for the gastronomic analogies with which he illustrates his points. It is a good idea to read it before reading the actual poetry clustered together on several of the issue...
...short story make up the rest of the issue. It is disconcerting to see so little of the issue's effort being devoted to the actual business of poetry and fiction. It is a meagre offering. The poems serve well as examples of some of the bad habits Richard Rosen mentions as plaguing the efforts of student poets-they are short, they are quiet, they are not very careful. Most of them, however, do manage to avoid drowning in the self-confessional sink where much of the subject matter of contemporary poetry seems to be found. Further analysis and evaluation...
...QUESTS for mental and moral seed that follow the most conscious attempt to explore the esthetics of war in Chicago and Asia is Richard Rosen's The Metaphors of a Cultural Radical. Unfortunately, this effort is also the least successful. Rosen's "metaphors" are confused and hackneyed: the revolution is a festival in which we are going to learn how to live a little better and make love to everyone and everything.
