Campbell Corner Poetry Prize

"Whereas philosophy tends to use myth as a clarifying tool to render the world, and us within it, more intelligible by the grace and force of reason, poetry relies on myth as matrix and co-creatrix for its spells and powers. Campbell Corner is a new site on the public square of contemporary language exchange: A place where myth and poetry, philosophy and rhetoric, together with the voice of passion, moderation and restraint, can mingle and engage in combat as well as artful combinations, thus extending the time-honored battles between poets and philosophers which permit, even invite, extended periods of truce and peace.
