Eruditio Ex Memoria was published by Angel Hair Books, the press founded by Anne Waldman and Lewis Warsh.  Angel Hair books bear a visible kinship with the great mimeo revolution of the mid-twentieth century:  the press’s earliest work was produced on a shoestring budget, animated by the vibrancy of the poetry and illustrations.  The books and magazines published by Waldman and Warsh through Angel Hair chart important movements in mid-century and New York School poetry and include important works by Bernadette Mayer, Ted Berrigan, Clark Coolidge, Frank O’Hara, and James Schuyler.

Edition of 400 copies.
