Anmerkungen
Clay and Phillips, p.245: "For all but one of its nine issues, Vort followed the same pattern in its plain, large-format issues, creating a little critical universe for each of two authors (...) Perhaps more an encyclopedia in parts than a magazine or journal, the issues included a photograph of each author, a small collection of each author's work, three or four critical studies, homages, commentaries, and long and detailed interviews with each author by editor Alpert (...) Vort is an unfortunately unfinished encyclopedia of the New American Poetry, but is still very useful for the information it contains and still important "for those to whom criticism is a fine art."" Concerns the following artists: Ed Dorn and Tom Rayworth, Anselm Hollo and Ted Berrigan, David Bromige and Ken Irby, Fielding Dawson and Jonathan Williams, Robert Kelly (only 1 artist), Gilbert Sorrentino and Donald Phelps, David Antin and Jerome Rothenberg, Jackson MacLow and Armand Schwerner and Guy Davenport and Ronald Johnson.
