The Neovictorian Cochlea founded in 1996 to provide a venue for poetry which is often considered “old-fashioned”… loyalty to a culture that offered poets an honorable place on the public stage, not only as singers but as thinkers who could help to sort out the complexities of modern knowledge and life. The name change is prompted by a wish to express a connection between Western culture we would like to see and the survival of Israel. The work, Daniel Deronda, immensely influential … to adopt this title is to express hope of reinvoking some social and creative energy that Daniel Deronda incorporated and released. |
