Oh those are great clips.

There definitely is a rage to order in fitting artists or historical figures into Procrustean type historical periods, when in fact a lot of the time they overlap, or even come before or after the periods they're associated with. Thomas Wolfe frex is rarely grouped with the 1920s writers, except chronologically, because the edited posthumous novels came out in the early forties. And Adrienne Rich is forever always a sixties (or maybe seventies) poet altho she kept on writing right into the eighties, nineties, 00s, 10s....
