THE AESTHETIC REALISM EXPLANATION OF POETRY \nEllen Reiss \nAesthetic Realism itself, with its unprecedented comprehension of people, arose from Eli Siegel's explanation and teaching of poetry.  Eli Siegel is the critic who showed truly what poetry is.  He showed that poetry — because it is fair to the whole world and oneself at the same time, because it is logic and feeling as one thing, because it puts opposites together — answers the questions of every person's life. This class, taught by the Class Chairman of Aesthetic Realism, continues what Eli Siegel began to teach in 1938: "Poetry ... is the oneness of the permanent opposites in reality as seen by an individual."  \n\nA prerequisite for attending this class is some previous study of Aesthetic Realism: either in Aesthetic Realism consultations, or through at least one semester of another Aesthetic Realism class

Despite about 25 minutes of searching I haven't been able to find this poem.  Could you call or e-mail someone you know who has to do the same assignment and possibly get the poem that way?  \n\nThese sites may be of some help to you.  My only other advice would be to get to a bookstore in your area if there is one and you might find it there.  Best of luck with it.
