Minimalism's Expansions -Reflections on the minimalism of the 1960s, with a few comments on Young's work in one aspect of this mode; will be distinguished from other types of minimalism such as those used in meditations on the Word and later works which will have chapters of their own. Vocabularies, Fractals, and Semiconductors - Reflections on poems created from word lists and other means of synthesis of pre-existing works in the context of healing, reconstruction, and finding means of speaking when there's nothing left to say. Source range from Native American and German to A Book of Fractals, an indirect study of French classics as well as an independent book of examples of the wide range of possible variations on a simple formal proposition. The Valence of Fragments - Starting with Pound's use of fragments, this chapter sketches Young's work with fragmentary sources beginning with the small lyrics of youth to such full books as Cried and Measured and Should Sun Forever Shine. This practice is something like the inverse of that explored in "Vocabularies, Fractals, and Semiconductors, and a prelude to an important future chapter on re-translation, "Bringing the Text Back Home."
