Context: The Clifton Antiquarian Club was founded in 1884 in Bristol to investigate antiquities in the surrounding area of western England and southern Wales.  The twenty-eight years of research performed by the membership and associates of the original society fill the first seven volumes of the Proceedings of the Clifton Antiquarian Club.  The association was dissolved in 1912, but was resurrected in 2006.  Three additional volumes of Proceedings have been published by the current incarnation of the society. Marjorie Keller (1950–1994) was an experimental filmmaker, author, activist, film scholar, and wife of P. Adams Sitney, the American avant-garde cinema historian.  J. Hoberman called her "an unselfish champion of the avant-garde." Bakhtiyar Vahabzadeh (Azerbaijani: "Bəxtiyar Vahabzadə" ; Turkish: "Bahtiyar Vahapzade" ; August 16, 1925 – February 13, 2009) was an Azerbaijani poet, dramatist, lyricist and translator as well as a college professor and politician.  He is often regarded as the second greatest contemporary poet of Azerbaijan, after Samed Vurgun. The film-poem (also called the poetic avant-garde film, verse-film or verse-documentary) is a label first applied to American avant-garde films released after World War II.  During this time, the relationship between film and poetry was debated.  James Peterson in "Dreams of Chaos, Visions of Order" said, "In practice, the film poem label was primarily an emblem of the avant-garde's difference from the commercial narrative film."  Peterson reported that in the 1950s, overviews of avant-garde films "generally identified two genres: the film poem and the graphic cinema".  By the 1990s, the avant-garde cinema encompassed the term "film-poem" in addition to different strains of filmmaking.  Film-poems are considered "personal films" and are seen "as autonomous, standing apart from traditions and genres".  They are "an open, unpredictable experience" due to eschewing extrinsic expectations based on commercial films.  Peterson said, "The viewer's cycles of anticipation and satisfaction derive primarily from the film's intrinsic structure."  The film-poems are personal as well as private: "Many film poems document intimate moments of the filmmaker's life." Jaime Sabines Gutiérrez (March 25, 1926 – March 19, 1999) was a Mexican contemporary poet.  Known as “the sniper of Literature” as he formed part of a group that transformed literature into reality, he wrote ten volumes of poetry, and his work has been translated into more than twelve languages.  His writings chronicle the experience of everyday people in places such as the street, hospital, and playground.  Sabines was also a politician. Johann Sziklai (born 1947 in Dingolfing, Germany) is a poet and a teacher.  He studied English, history, and political science in Tübingen and in Bangor, North Wales.  Since 1975, he has been teaching at the Gymnasium in Plochingen am Neckar.  Sziklai writes mainly poetry and short prose.  His first volume of poetry, "Schildkrötenwanderung" (migration of the tortoises), was published in 1988.  Three additional volumes of poetry have followed.  The most recent was published in 1995 and has the title "Kreideweißheiten" (chalk tales).  As the title suggests, in "Kreideweißheiten" Sziklai takes a hard look at the school system in Germany.  Dealing with social and political issues is typical for much of Sziklai's work.  His style of clear, brief statements and questions reads like prose and reflects his concerns with the realities of life. Jim W. Goar (1975) is a contemporary poet born in San Francisco, CA.  He was educated at Naropa University (MFA) and the University of East Anglia (PhD).  In 2006, effing press made his chapbook, "Whole Milk".  Of this collection Scott Glassman at Rain Taxi stated that Goar's "clause-free declarative sentences are a perfect match for the edgy grade-school surrealism which guides us into emotional revelation.”  Jordan Davis, in his Constant Critic article, included it amongst his best texts of the year.  "Seoul Bus Poems" (2010), his first full-length collection, was published by Ken Edwards' Reality Street.  This collection was hailed as a "brilliant portrait of life in a foreign city" and "a glorious example of sparse language and observations."  Positive reviews have also appeared in Intercapillary Space and etcetera.  Rose Metal Press published his second collection, "The Louisiana Purchase" in November 2011.  Scott Abels listed "The Louisiana Purchase" as a 'Best Poetry Book of 2011' at No Tell Motel.  Since 2006, Goar’s poetry has appeared in magazines including Poetry Wales, Blackbox Manifold, Typo, Jacket, Octopus, Harvard Review, OmniVerse, Cream City Review, and Cimarron Review.  He's been invited to read his poetry at the SoundEye Festival in Cork Ireland and at Pembroke College, Cambridge.  past simple, the journal he edits, has had poems featured in the anthology: Best of the Net 2007 and is currently in its 10th issue.
