Extremes & ModerationsA Historical Archive of Los Angeles and Southern California Poetry
Associations provide a secondary way to browse Extremes and Moderations, connecting writers across historical periods through publications, institutions, literary circles, political formations, aesthetic movements, diasporic networks, and intellectual currents. While each volume occupies one primary place in the Catalogue, it may participate in many different Associations.
Parody, nonsense, topical rhyme, comic monologue, typographic jokes, and social satire allow these poets to make literary play a mode of criticism as well as entertainment.
