Cid Corman I will not introduce because if you are reading this you likely already know who he is. Nor will I tell you how he and I rst met because that is already covered in an introduction to his early letters to me that appear in THE TOHOKU GAKUIN REVIEW ["Love Always--Letters From Cid Corman to and edited by Scott Watson", Sept. 1995] (in Japanese this academic journal is known as . ).[http:// iss.ndl.go.jp/books/R000000004-I3317593-00] Early in the 2000s when BONGOS OF THE LORD was still appearing as a printed mag, and after it had used a few short essays from Cid, he decided to hand over to me, for the purpose of future use, a thick binder notebook lled with essays typed on thick notebook paper. The notebook itself is sturdy and gray (IIH) and is made by Kokuho. The rst essays from the notebook appeared in The TGR in 2004 not long after Cid died in March. That collection is called "Surviving" [http:// www.abebooks.com/Surviving-Corman-Cid-Scott-Watson/770238821/bd]. The present collection is from towards the end of the notebook and all focus on Cid's readings of Martin Buber. Besides Buber, in these pieces are remarks about other persons of note such as Freud, Jung, and Charles Olson. Inside the front cover of this notebook, at the top left, is Cid's name written in ink and a date: October, 1965. The penmanship is his inimitable own, but one thing unmistakable is that he uses S for Sid--not C. Instead of typing the entire selection I made use of scanning technology. This is easier on my neck that aches from prolonged typing and also shares with readers how the pages actually appear, along with his hand written marginalia as and where it appears.
