On John Clarke (in the series on Corbin & Poetry)

I have this note from Duncan McNaughton dating back a couple years in response to a question about Corbin's influence:

As far as I know - not far - Jack Clarke's book From Feathers to Iron and subsequent poetry is the most evident use of Corbin after Olson's. In a primary determination involving, obviously, several other primaries - Blake, the Dogon stuff, Novalis, di Santillana etc. All aimed at what is actually meant by what is called "interpretation."

More on Clarke's work here.

From the back cover we have this from James Hillman:

"How rarely I come upon a truly useful book. Clarke has packed it all in here and wherever you open the pages, jewels, pearls, crowns tumble out. I see illustrations to the Arabian Nights. I have already picked up and walked off with treasures."

Also, in the current issue of Ken Warren's HOUSE ORGAN there is a very nice piece by Bruce Holsapple on Clarke's In the Analogy.
